Feeling guilty about missing my freedom

I have an amazing DP who I’ve just moved overseas with in the last 2 months. We have been in our own bubble far away, and of course it has been stressful getting adjusted and settling which has led to some bickering.

However, for the last few weeks, I’ve been feeling so guilty because I miss being single. I speak to friends back home who are on nights out and meeting up. I miss being able to do what I wanted. I don’t ever want to be single again, and I love my DP so much.

I am really prone to guilt, and even feel slight guilt when a male friend pops up (I say friend because I’m not sure a guy can be a friend to a girl without wanting more in my experience) and I will enjoy a conversation and then feel awful after it as if I’ve done something wrong, even though I haven’t in the slightest and merely replied to someone.

is this normal.. to sometimes miss being by yourself and being independent? I feel like such a bad person.
