Does anyone else have only one or a few proper friends?
I feel like everyone around me has large groups of friends that see each other and speak all the time.
I have one real friend who's been there since school, and through a lot together and other than DH and my parents, she's the only person I really speak to!
I've gone through an awful time recently with fertility problems and recurrent miscarriages and I just found that all my other 'friends' just seemed to completely abandon ship when things got a bit hard. To be honest, I feel like never bothering with any of them again and just accepting that my friendship circle will always be quite small.
Is there anyone else who doesn't have many friends? I mean friends you know will be there through the shit parts rather than just people to have a bit of a night out with every now and then?
I was beginning to think maybe it was me but now I'm wondering if most large circles of friends aren't actually as close or as caring as they make out to be? Its definitely been my experience anyway!
