I agree with @happy1 . True friends can have different goals and support each other along the way. When I was your age one of my best friends was going to move from high school straight to a professional athletic career and I moved on to college. We supported each other and are still friends many decades later. Would you look down on a friend whose goal was to go to community college after high school? The answer to this question will help illuminate your path forward.
