Yea so I've been best friends with two other people for around a year and we've been fine and we've never really had arguments or anything. But they got together recently and now I just feel really alone, I suppose.

Alone and depressed is kind of my sitting feeling. It's how I feel when I'm not spending time with anyone and I suppose it's my standard feeling, which isn't pleasant. When I'm best friends (or very occasionally in a relationship) with people it can make it a bit easier for me to deal with how I feel, but eventually the people who I latch onto change or move on and I'm left with my sense of how much I hate myself, really. It's always been this cycle with me and I'm worried I'll never be rid of it.

The worst part is we're part of a larger group of friends and while I've been trying to move on and meet new people they've been showing up to everything and being all coupley, which makes me feel uncomfortable as well as reflect on how lonely I am compared to them. It feels like there's no escaping and I don't feel like I have anyone to turn to or any kind of safety net anymore.

There isn't really anything I can do, I really just wanted to vent, but still if anyone's got some helpful advice that'd be much appreciated.

There isn't that much that you can do except perhaps be happy for them,be supportive and try and get out there socialising to try and make other friends. I don't know how old you are but are there any clubs or meet up groups that you can join. Just maybe see it as a positive thing and an opportunity to get to know other people.
 
Are there places and events you could go to where they aren't likely to turn up?
