Most importantly the cat. 😂 But also OH, DS, DD, my inlaws and my best friend.

Parents are vile, not sure they are capable of love. It used to make me very sad, now I realise that the people that do love me and I also love are amazing and I'm very lucky.

If I feel unloved, I'll probably just get some more pets.

My DH (mostly) my dds, cat dog, at least 2 of my brothers. It’s debatable that the rabbits do.

My parents would loudly proclaim they do but it's not love as I understand it.
DCat might miss me a bit if I were gone. He's a deeply affectionate,loyal, dog-like creature.

Dog - until DH comes home, then I am dumped. Traitorous beast.
Husband (despite erratic perimenopausal behaviour of late.)
Kids
No one from birth family - feeling’s mutual
My cousin who grew up similarly
Several friends
I’m luckier than most because I can actually say this confidently and without question.

I asked because everyone on MN appears to have a legion of friends and family that they suggest posters should turn to. I'm just wondering whether I'm unique in my loneliness!

My kids, but actually not sure sometimes as all 3 are teenagers and sometimes their rudeness is all encompassing. When they were smaller they would say they loved me, now, if asked, they would probably say they don’t.

My Dad and my sister.

My Aunt.

I think that’s it.

The cat - but she loves anyone who is kind to her for long enough.

I also think that if you've never actually really needed a friend you don't know whether they are or not.
I had 4 close friends until I fell on hard times. I now have none.

Lol, I'm good now. I know more now, but I was just wondering whether I was the only one. Not many people would have gone through what I have, so I guess their friendships have never been put to the test. If you asked me 5 years ago? EVERYBODY loved me. Lol

My dog

My kids

My siblings

My ex probably cares for me. My friends care for me. That's not the same as love, exactly.

My dog loves me the most

Two cats because I feed them
3 DBs
A handful of friends and a few cousins plus a few nieces and nephews. Not bad in the great scheme of things.
It's more about those that dislike me that I keep my eye on.

Dohee you are right, you don't know who your friends are until they are needed! I too have lost friends when hitting hard times, but I found opening up and looking for new friends helped. I will never forget how sad I felt reaching out to practically strangers for help, some amazing people reached out and got me back on my feet. Be brave, do something out of the ordinary to find a friend and try not to worry about what happens when you meet stormy waters ahead. Good luck x
