Hey there!! Let's talk!!

I recently told a friend that I only wanted to be friends as I didn't have feelings for him relationship wise. I no I'm not alone but all of my friends have significant others. One friend was like well a boyfriend is not everything I get it but when you have been alone you truly don't understand unless you have been there.

I understand about being alone and I have been on the other end of I only want to be friends and the same end your on.....so either way one hurts and the other leaves you lonely.....so it sucks to be us....

It sounds like you really want a boyfriend, but it's worth waiting for the right one. You did the right thing not leading him on. You could do with some single friends, but sometimes life doesn't go that way. I'm a single mum and all my friends are married. It's tough being one in a crowd of couples so I understand. I try to maintain my friendships as best I can and make sure I don't attend too many events where its all couples. I don't like feeling the odd one out. Keep your friendships because at some stage, they may well be single too.

Thank you all. I messaged another friend and made plans to go bowling. I have plans with a couple other people as well. I'm a very independent person but I can't stand going to restaurants and eating alone. The amount of people that stare at me makes me self conscious it doesn't help that I have a disability which also brings attention.

I'm pretty much in the same boat, so idk what help I could be, but I'm here nonetheless.
