I always seem to have boyfriends. I had a one boyfriend or another all throughout high school and 2 so far in college(i'm 20 now). but i really don't have many friends. I never do. Right now I'm in a pretty serious relationship with my boyfriend, he is so amazing to me, and I can't get enough of hanging out with him. We hung out for 3 to 4 straight months, with me sleeping over, mostly by ourselves or with his friends. Now he is very far away doing a college internship for 2 whole months. I feel so alone. I just hang out at my house by myself all day. I could reach out to a few people that I used to be friends with but I'm pretty shy. I'm so sick of being without friends, I love my boyfriend but I guess I don't know how to have both a boyfriend and friends at the same time. I want to have both but maybe i'm just not meant to have friends... I haven't for such a long time

    I had this problem after switching schools. Lots of guys talked to me, interested in a relationship, and since they were the only people showing any ind of friendliness towards me, I'd talk to them. But it made making friends with other people hard.

    Good suggestion above. I agree.

    Also some time apart can be a good thing. It will give you a chance to make new friends, or reconnect with some old ones.

    You need to find a healthy balance. Boyfriends are great, but there is more to life than hanging on his every word. College is the perfect time and place to meet new people. Hang out with your roommate or ask someone in your class to grab lunch and look at class work.
