Couple things, just cause you don't talk to people everyday doesn't mean you are not friends. Some of my best friends I talk to every other month (happens the older you get). Be smart with your money, No need to be freakishly cheap but don't be out buying dumb shit like name brand clothes unless you have the means. If POSSIBLE try to buy a house/condo ASAP instead of renting as renting is just throwing your money away basically. Do what makes you happy but shit happens and life sucks sometimes, look forward to the good times and life gets easier.
