The meeting after 15 years helped me realize my old friend's true nature. Knowing that my salary was low, he avoided me and didn't want to talk anymore.
* The article was shared on a Chinese social networking site and attracted the attention of many people.
My name is Vuong Dieu, 39 years old, I am a person who cherishes friendship very much. I always want to maintain long-term and good friendships.
However, each of us has our own life and is busy, so no matter how close a friendship is, time and change of space also cause relationships to fade and people to become strangers.
A few days ago, Ly Vuong - a close friend of mine from college contacted me about plans to organize a reunion after 15 years of graduation.
Everyone quickly decided on the venue. At first I was hesitant about whether to go or not, but in the end I decided to join.
For me, considering this an important event, I planned to wear a formal suit, with a neat watch on my wrist to impress my old friend. However, my wife asked me to take it off, and change into casual clothes.

Shocked when classmate unfriended me on social media
By chance, the place where the reunion was held was quite near my house, so I walked there. When I arrived, most of the people were already there.
I saw Li Wang smiling brightly, wearing a suit and shiny leather shoes, with his glossy hair neatly combed to one side. He now looked really confident and successful, completely different from my memory.
King Ly and I greeted each other happily and he pulled me down to sit next to him. After that, all my old friends gathered together, all dressed simply, completely different from King Ly.
The class reunion started with a lot of stories about life and work, everyone was happily laughing and joking with each other. However, the stories started to go further when a group of friends sitting near the window excitedly told about seeing people driving luxury cars, people taking taxis and seeing me walking towards them.
I was a little unhappy when I heard people making fun of me, but that feeling quickly dissipated and I paid attention to the stories of my old friends. And then, people continued to compare who wore more expensive watches, who used more branded items,... which made me feel bored.
Ly Vuong seemed to be very interested in the topic of using luxury goods. He did not sit still but kept walking back and forth among his group of rich friends. The party seemed to have turned into a place for Ly Vuong and his well-off classmates to socialize.
During the party, Ly Vuong also paid attention to me and talked about all sorts of things. He poured me wine, smiled and asked about my monthly income and my family's current life.
My life is very good now. My wife is a primary school teacher, and I work for a large company. I am in charge of software engineering, so my monthly income is about 20,000 yuan (about 70 million VND).

However, thinking of my wife's advice to be humble during the party, I decided to only say my income was 3,000 NDT (more than 10.5 million VND).
After hearing my salary, Ly Vuong's attitude changed immediately. I felt his smile and contemptuous gaze at me. He turned to chat with everyone and ignored me throughout the party.
I never expected that when I mentioned my lower salary, I would receive such contempt. I understand the nature of people, so I wasn't too angry. In the end, after the party ended, I didn't see Li Wang, so I said goodbye to everyone and left early.
When I got home, I intended to rest and regain my strength, but the ringing of my phone annoyed me. Seeing that some of my group members had sent messages to inform me that they had arrived home, I followed suit and reported that I was safe.
After that, I thought I hadn't said goodbye to Ly Vuong when I left, so I sent him a private message and found out that I had been blocked and unfriended. I was surprised to realize the nature of the problem, I felt angry but then calmly ignored it. I never thought that a friend I hadn't seen for a few years could become such a person.
Unexpectedly, he blocked me. I suddenly realized what had happened. I felt a little angry, but it was useless. Why would someone like that do that? A few years later, I had bought a luxury car and regularly posted pictures of my family living a good life.
I saw many classmates liking my posts, commenting that they were jealous of my life. And once, Ly Vuong also sent a friend request back but I also rejected and blocked him.
