She Got Called Jealous After Telling Her Rich Friend That She’s Losing Her Grip On Reality And Nobody Wants To Be Around Her
This woman has a 35-year-old best friend named Jenny, and they have been close since they were only kids.
As Jenny became an adult, she built a company, sold it, and now is unbelievably rich. Jenny does come from humble beginnings, and she’s happy that Jenny worked her heart out for what she has today.
While Jenny has been able to make it big, she and the rest of their friends can’t say the same thing. They all have average jobs but can afford to save money or spend money on vacations.
“Her story is a fairytale, and we are all super proud of her, but a couple of years ago, she was approached by an agency that pushed her to become a public motivational speaker and podcaster,” she explained.
“Since then, she has become increasingly unbearable to be around, and I eventually came to the point where I needed to tell her. Since Jenny got rich, she has always been herself, just in a more fancy package, and I have loved that for her. You go, girl!”
“She has always been super respectful about other people’s finances, and when we meet up, she’s always up for whatever the rest of us can afford. Even on her bachelorette party she made a deal about making sure to do things everyone could afford.”
As Jenny turned into this podcaster and motivational speaker, it made her go back and reconsider all of the things she believed about Jenny because Jenny was clearly no longer the same person she thought she knew and loved.
Jenny’s motivational advice in her podcast all boiled down to one ugly thing: nobody should want to be basic, and everyone can be as rich as she is if they stop being lazy.
In one particular episode that Jenny made of her podcast, Jenny discusses only allowing herself to have successful people around her so she can stop looking at basic people as acceptable.

She even talked about one of their friends’ husbands as the worst partner possible since he has zero ambition.
Although Jenny didn’t name this man, all the details she shared made his identity obvious to everyone in their friend circle.
As Jenny’s podcast progressed, Jenny began behaving even worse, and all of their friends quit inviting her out to events.
When Jenny lost friends, her podcast took on another twist: Jenny launched into confessing that it’s lonely being there on top, and she dished out advice on how to handle people who no longer want to be friends with you because of your success.
“But I decided it was time to tell her I think she’s losing grip of reality and that if she continues with being so judgemental in her podcast, she will end up just as lonely as she describes herself to be,” she said.
“Jenny got super [mad] at me and told me she wouldn’t expect this from her best friend and claims I have been jealous and felt inferior to her my whole life, which is absolutely not true.”
“She tells me the whole podcast thing is her playing a part and that she exaggerates her opinions for reach. She thinks I am the one who has convinced all the others to leave her side and wants me to apologize before ever speaking to me again.”
She’s left wondering if she does owe Jenny an apology. What do you think?
