How do you deal with it when...

When your best friend (and basically only friend irl) gets a boyfriend and basically completely ditches you? 😶

She's entitled to a life ain't she?
@SW-User lol. I'm not saying she can't live her own life. I'm just saying it sucks when you've been friends for ten years/hang out all the time then she gets a boyfriend and then you don't see her for months.

That just sort of happens. Maybe get involved in a hobby or volunteer and you'll meet more people that have similar interests. Maybe make more friends that way. Don't sit at home and be sad

I look at it this way,, if you are the same sex it's obvious that you will feel neglected,, and I can see by the age that you are still very young.. I have friendships that are still strong with friends I went to school with 40 years ago.. you aren't forgotten.. just set aside for a bit.. they may get married and have kids,, instead of being upset, be happy for them,, hey it might be a big wedding one day and you could be a bridesmaid, or maybe not.. just be happy for your friend and time has its way of making you feel better.. just think about that Rachel
My best friend has a hubby and our friendship has never changed.
@Mondayschild That's awesome!
@Rachel335 find a friendship like that.☺

This may be the 1st time, but definetly not the last time this will happen. You get older and everyone moves on.

I'm sorry that's happening - it's one of life's toughies. But it's part of the life most of us will lead/live. Next will be marriage. Then we get into our kids.

Your time is coming as well, so try to be happy for your friend - and don't be afraid to let your friend know you miss the time together and wish you'd have a little more. Your best friend is not doing this for the effect it will have on your friendship. It'll get better.

It happens a lot. So I think try not to get too attached to people.

That seems to be typical. It sucks. Sorry🌹
