I’ve always been a bit of a loner.

Growing up I had one close friend, but we faded a couple years ago. Drifted apart. I had other friends by that point, and honestly I had a short period of time where I had a group of close friends, we did everything together.

But then as life started getting busier and we grew up, we had less time to hang out and eventually we stopped hanging out together.

For the past 6 months or so I’ve considered two of my old friends as my friends but one who never makes time for me is moving away next week, and the other just doesn’t talk to me anymore. When we do hang out it’s awkward and weird and we hardly talk at all, just watch tv.

I have a bunch of “friends” who I hang out with, but they’re my bf’s friends and wouldn’t hang out with me if he wasn’t there.

And he has a lot of friends, which is chill cuz I like hanging out with them too but I need my own friends.. and I just don’t know how to start that whole process over again.

My coworkers are pretty good friends but they never hang out with me outside of work, but they do stuff together without me.

Which is fine, not everyone has to be my friend, but I’d like at least one good friend..

I’m so thankful for my bf because I don’t feel lonely without friends, but I guess I feel a little lost.

Any ideas?
