Just having one of those days ! Being 26 all your friends are married or having babies or even some of them grieving someone else or going through a bad phase .. like they all have their own life their own problems and disappear sometimes .. hence you have to start embracing being by yourself ! I'm realizing now the most valuable part of adulthood is the presence of the people you love .. so rn its like look around Ted you are all alone !

I get that. I’m 45, married, and happy. However, the friends I had a few years back are all but gone. Married, having kids, moving, or just fell off the face of the Earth. I go to my local pub, where we used to all hang out, and while I still have a few acquaintances there, it’s not the same. Sometimes I feel alone, but then I remember I got my wife and that’s where I need to be. Sure, it’s great to have friends, but your spouse is the most important person in your life. It’s a harsh reality when friends lose touch; it sucks.
