Celebrating each others successes?

[TheMorningGarden]

Long term friend openly talks about both her worries and kids successes. I always try to lend a listening ear and celebrate their successes.

On the other hand, she gets all over me when I talk about my worries but either ignores or gets in a huff when I try to share good news. Similar sort of things as hers like being chosen as a captain for a sports team DC belongs to etc.

Aibu to feel this is an unfair treatment especially when I am genuinely happy with their achievements? Why do they do this?

Getting huffy or ignoring you when you share good news is a red flag imo. Real friends don't need to feel superior to you, and in your shoes, I'd stop sharing anything.

Thanks, I know. I don't know why I'm still friends with her. Guess because we've been friends for so long. It's so hard to break up

If you feel the friendship is running its course, you could challenge her. That would at least give her a chance to fix the problem. Obviously there's no guarantee it would end well so there's a risk.

Sadly I don't have the guts to bring it up to her face.

By why would she do this to me?
