No friends, feel like I'm hitting rock bottom

I'm so sad to be feeling this way, I'm 5 months pregnant with a brilliant partner, a lovely home and a nice family and I should have so much to be happy and look forward to, I'm only in my mid twenties. I've never had many friends, I struggle a bit socially and never get that close to people and they always seem to find a reason to cut me off eventually. I had one close friend who has now done the exact same and decided she no longer wants to be in contact with me, and I just don't know what to do. I scared myself with how sad I was all of yesterday, I've never cried so hard for so long in my life but I just seem to always end up back here no matter how hard I try. No matter what I do. How can I be so young and still have no friends? Not one bloody person?

I’ve got a thread on the exact same thing.
I’m sorry you are lonely too.
It’s the most crushing feeling.
You have one thing that I don’t have which will enable you to forge friendships and that is your baby. You will be able to meet people at baby groups , playgroups , preschool , school etc .
I hope you find someone Smile

What has your friend said about why she is ending the friendship? What about the other people who ‘cut you off’?

It would be good to get a few things sorted in your head about friendships and how you approach them before you enter the world of baby/toddler groups, NCT coffee mornings etc.
