Boyfriend is my only friend :/

Alex

After moving to a new state and being a commuter student, I don’t really have any friends up here except my boyfriend and his friend. It’s hard not having a girl to do girl things with. And also, I know my boyfriend wants some space sometimes to just hang with his friends and I’d like to go out and do stuff with other women too! I want to not have us get bored of each other’s company. My boyfriend suggested the friendship option in bumble but I don’t feel comfortable doing that because I know if the roles were reversed I wouldn’t like him having the app regardless and I want to respect our relationship as bumble is notoriously known for primarily dating. I’m not interested in cheating or another relationship, but I really do just want friends. It seems so hard to make new friends in college or as an adult living on my own with him. I don’t know where to go out and find new people because the only friends I’ve ever known are from high school. I’m 20. I feel like it’s sad that I don’t have any friends. I just want someone to do stuff with and to talk to or have a conversation with. I’m grown up now and I feel like the few people I still talk to from high school are still stuck in a teenager ideology. I’m ready to find mature girls/women to be friends with, go out to eat with, talk about grown up things with, even roommate with! It feels so impossible…I need hope…
