I have felt the same way. Friends can only understand so much and have so much patience. I let a friendship go years ago when I saw one friend complain about how the second one was always unhappy, complaining. This second friend went through(and was going through) so much tzar at the time, I felt it was a betrayal of friendship not to be there for her. I lost trust in the first friend and dropped her because of her treatment of the second. Truth be told, though, only a therapist has endless patience to listen to tzaar. Relationships need to be balanced. Why are your friends frustrated with you? Is it because they want to move you to action while you are still in a place of wanting and needing to be heard and understood? Have you told your friends that you don’t feel understood?
