I recently lost my best friend of 20 years.
It did and still does hurt a lot. But it has made me stop and think about the people in my life.
I only have 3 people I call friends and I'm not particularly very close to them and all of whom I don't see often at all, 2 of them I may see 2 or 3 times a year due to living far apart.
The other one lives closer but still only see maybe once a month at most, these are all old friends that I've had 15+ years so I met them as a teen / child.
I can't remember the last time I made a real friend, maybe I've been too reserved but I find it very difficult to make friends, I've been hurt a lot and find it hard to trust people.
I've been quite lonely lately and would love to make new friends but how...
