I bought two tickets to a concert and no one to go with because I distanced myself from my friends
Why have you distanced yourself from your friends?
They were using me.
You shouldn't push your friends away. They care about you and you should talk to them and reconcile.
Nah, later, assholes.
How were they using you? Maybe it could be a misunderstanding, so how about coming to talk to them about it instead of pushing them away which would give them a bad opinion about you? If everything is reconciled, have a great concert with them to make up!
