AITA For feeling left behind by my teammates?

So I have two team mates, Lets call the Cando and Am. They mean a lot to me, and are very hard workers. However, recently they have left me alone with no one to turn to, but our quirky coworkers. For DAYS, and I’ve face many hardships and triumphs throughout this time. Such as, supporting my coworker in a three versus one, Having someone get trampled by my horse, and a server wide SCANDAL. So after another day of being alone, I decided to pack up, and move to the apartment next door to try and avoid my old team mates. However, right after I was getting settled in Cando bursts into the room asking me what I’ve been doing all this time. I tell him my tales of being alone, but he says I’m overreacting, and the three of us team mates could have talked yesterday. Then the quirky coworkers take his side, after helping me move in! At this point, I’m wondering if moving away is too big of reaction? I’ll Keep in touch with any updates!

  1. Wait, so you withdrew or they withdrew?

    Why cant you hang out with the “quirky coworkers”?

    There’s.. so much missing here but im kinda leaning towards YTA to yourself.

    If you choose to sit alone bc you dont like the “quirky” people, you can’t really complain about your friends still being social..?

    Idk, I feel like im missing info, if im wrong feel free to correct me

    1. Its not that I didn’t enjoy hanging out with them, they just aren’t my team mates. Also i called them quirky coworkers bc i didn’t feel like coming up with more fake names. At first I withdrew because I wasn’t seeing or talking to them at all.

  2. It sounds like you went through some stressful events alone, but moving house without a single conversation is a bridge too far. You felt lonely, which is valid, but your reaction was nuclear. You need to apologize for the ghosting/moving and actually use your words next time.

  3. YTA for the move, not for the feeling.

    Feeling left behind is valid. If your teammates disappeared for days and you were carrying things solo, that stings. But instead of communicating that directly, you relocated in what sounds like a symbolic protest.

    Packing up and moving next door before having a clear conversation is escalation. It turns a hurt feeling into a dramatic gesture.

    If they truly sidelined you, say that plainly. “I felt abandoned when I was handling everything alone.” Not “I’m moving out.”

    Right now it sounds like you reacted to the emotion instead of addressing the cause. Talk first. Relocate later if needed.
