Alright, well
I had a group of friends leave me once because I lied about my life and made up a double life I was living to seem cooler than I was, this included a dead girlfriend I was gonna marry, and a current girlfriend I was dated which one of which was real.
When I realized I was in too far over my head, it was too late and when one of my friends genuinely pissed me off I pretended to have PTSD from my dead girlfriend to make it seem like I wasn't being a petty asshole and was genuinely hurt (even though I was).
Needless to say, it didn't go well, and combined with depression from work I fell into a suicidally depressed collapsed state where I blew up on them and they cut all communication and I was forced to leave my job as it was too awful to stay.
That being said, I did learn from my mistakes, and my current friend group is really supportive, good, and fun and we're all equals in it and understand each other.
I would say I was the problem with the original group, but the 2 people who effectively started running it after I got everyone together and would organize everything, dropped their one friend over a simple mistake and frustrations. Honestly what got me through that time was genuinely knowing that I wasn't the only person who got shafted in that friend group
