Is it normal to be scared of having no friends in the end.

I've moved away from my family to live with my boyfriend. I didn't have many true friends back home so it wasn't as if I was leaving much behind. I have made some new friends through my work but they are a little older then me and are at a different stage in life ie: getting married and having babies etc. I know this is something that my boyfriend does not want for a very long time. I'm scared that if me and my boyfriend break up I won't have any friends in the end.

    It can be hard to make new friends if you are out as a 'couple' coz people don't want to intrude. It's easier if you're seen as an individual.

  • You do have friends, they just don't live near you anymore. As you get older, you will learn to appreciate those long-distance friendships a lot more.

    The older you get, the more difficult it is to make new friends in new cities. As an adult, I've lived in a few different cities and never knew a soul when I first arrived at each of them. Now I have dear friends scattered all over the country.

    You also have yourself. Be strong. You'll make new friends eventually, give it time.
