<human>: Can you condense the text into a few key points?

Hi. I'm going to make this short, so hopefully more people may read it.

My husband's friends (mid to late twenties F and M) are at an event. I went to the same event 7 years ago. We plus other friends of my husband are in a chat where they're discussing how much they dislike the event. I'm making comments about it. Their response is how they don't give a fuck about when I went, and the other friend of my husband's went on to say how my comments are retarded. 

In response to the first comment I said no one forces her to read my messages, and in response to the second I said that I'm just passing the time (i.e. just talking in the chat for funzies), and there is no need to be rude to me. My husband said nothing and plans on saying nothing nor doing anything about his friend's comments. 

I've tried for years to be friends with them. Some of his friends are nice, but these two are not. Should I even bother? I feel like I'm suppose to just let it go, let them curse at me and insult me and not let it affect me. The truth is though it does hurt. I use to have very low self-essteem, and to hear that from people my husband views as his closest and oldest friends hurt so much.

Seriously, I was about to start crying in public during a break from my work. I did deep breathing exercises and didn't cry though... But, it shouldn't be like this! Why can't they be nice like my own friends? Or my in-laws? Or my family? I don't understand. 

I can post a screen cap of the convo if that helps. Thanks everyone.

Also, we may go on a international trip with them. My husband also plans on going cross-country to see them for 4 days plus the annual  5 day long trip we take with them. These people I can't exactly ignore... But how can I work with people who are, well, mean?
<bot>: Husband's friends cursed me out and insulted me. Should I just let it go and continue being friendly with them?
