Tuition deposit

I just found out that returning students also need to pay for the $200 deposit and it’s my second year but I can’t pay for it since I’m the only one helping out my parents with bills and they both have lost their jobs and moved to a different city. Would it be possible to ask the admissions office to get it extended?

AITA for distancing myself from my online friends because I felt ignored?

I (19 F) became friends with a group of people through an online game around two months ago. They’re all much older than me (literally around triple my age), and they’ve all known each other for a long time already.

At first, I tried to fit in with their humor and would joke around/swear at them sometimes, but recently I realized it could come off as rude, so I stopped doing it. The problem is that even after that, I started feeling really excluded. Whenever I talked, people would either talk over me, ignore my jokes/comments, or the call would just go awkwardly silent. I already have anxiety, and because I’m back at my parents’ house for summer break, I can’t really talk loudly either, so it became hard to speak up.

I’d text them asking if anyone wanted to hop on the game or voice call/video call and usually get ignored. After a while, I started distancing myself and replying more coldly because I honestly felt unwanted.

One of them eventually confronted me and said they were “trying to make a safe and happy group” and that I was “fucking it up.” Then multiple people joined in saying I was rude or that I “couldn’t take a joke.” The joke they were referring to was about one of my biggest insecurities, which I had trusted them enough to tell them about before.

They also said they’d apparently been feeling guilty about me distancing myself all week, which honestly made me feel worse, and I started thinking maybe I should’ve just kept my mouth shut and never said I was hurt.

I apologized and told them I reflected on my actions and understood where they were coming from. Since then, though, everyone’s basically been ignoring me. I even privately asked two people if we were still okay and got left on seen. I’ve also sent memes in the group chat just trying to see if things were normal again, but I still feel iced out.

Two hours ago, the gc is still empty but they all played without me which made me feel butthurt because stuff like these happen with me when it comes to friends.

AITA for distancing myself after feeling ignored/excluded, or did I handle this badly?
