Free poker in local pubs

I recently discovered that who you think are your friends are not.I used to play alot of poker in free tournaments at local pubs.When I first started meeting the players,everyone was nice an introduced themselves.After a few weeks it seems most of them turned on me or would just ignore me.It used to be everyone would just cut up laugh and have fun.Now they just want to sit an ***** about everything or everyone.Just goes to show how people take the fun out of things that should still be fun.Maybe some day that will change.
