Fake friends or just over reacting?

So a few of my friends invited me to the Cheesecake Factory and I’m so jealous because I couldn’t go because it’s just too expensive for me, and upon telling them that they decided to start sending me pics of all the stuff they were having. Does anyone else get jealous when friends do stuff like this or is it just me? Or am I just over reacting? And this isn’t the first time they’ve done this. But I feel like I’d be wrong if I told them to stop mentioning their outings knowing that sometimes I may be unable to join.

Have you had an adult conversation about the situation with them?

I have spoke up about to a few times but I’m not sure they take me serious. I have goofy friends and I too can be silly at times but it’s like if someone’s seems uncomfy with it and they mention it I’d stop and wouldn’t do it again.

Maybe its time you did something to increase your income?
I remember having no money and living in a van.

It sounds like you have not had an adult conversation with them. Sit down and talk to them - face to face if possible. Tell them your feelings in a non-confrontational manner. Their reaction will tell you your next steps/

And if that's not an option, it's good to restructure what you spend your money on.

Oh the good ol Cheesecake Factory, overpriced stuff that you pay 3 times as much you can get at Applebees! I am absolutely flabbergasted when people mention it or something like Olive Garden or Red Lobster as something fancy… clearly don’t get out much lol Cheesecake Factory does have really good cheesecake but the other food is nothing to write home about imo

it’s them probably trying to show how they had a good time and wished you were there, I don’t know your friend dynamic or anything but I know food/going out to dinner/getting drinks has been one of the few things we get together to do, and especially nowadays being that I’m 2 to 4 times bigger than the Guys I hang out with it’s something agreeable that isn’t to strenuous so long as the table doesn’t fight me

Hot take, but Olive Garden isn't even good. It's like they season with salt.

It’s over priced noodles and company only marketed towards dinner instead of lunch. But yeah not very good I’m not impressed when people mention they went to the Olive Garden. I know far better Italian spots
