My friend is mean
Hi Reddit,
I recently told my friend in casual conversation about an artistic hobby I always wanted to try as a kid.
The hobby I wanted to try was too expensive for the family, so I never could.
She told me “why would you admit you are a wannabe”
I feel hurt that I opened up about something I always dreamed of doing and being brushed off like that.
It doesn’t help that she’s been an a-hole lately, so maybe that was just the cherry on top.
Does anyone have any advice on how I can let this dream go and not feel hurt by a comment like this?

Bluntly speaking, the logic is there, but the execution is uneven which turns this into more of a debate
At this point, this feels rushed rather than thought through which explains why reactions are split This could age very differently in a week. Could be wrong, but that’s how it comes across.
On the surface, this feels more about execution than intent and that’s why opinions are all over the place Curious how this plays out.
Reaction: This meme is brought to you by a lack of sleep
the framing does a lot of heavy lifting here and that’s why opinions are all over the place Feels like there’s more coming here. That’s the impression it gives me.

there’s a gap between the message and the outcome which is why this is getting picked apart
To be fair, the intention might be solid, the rollout less so and that’s where the disagreement starts At least from my perspective.
If we’re being honest, the follow-through is what will decide this Feels like an opening move, not an ending.

From my side, the timing matters more than people admit That’s what makes this interesting. At least from my perspective.
Without overthinking it, there’s a lot said here but not much clarified which makes the reaction pretty predictable That’s what changes the context. That’s the impression it gives me.
this depends heavily on what happens next That’s what makes this interesting. Feels like an opening move, not an ending.
