A weird kind of lonely... I guess

I've been feeling lonely lately but not in a bad way, I think.
I think a while back I got really used to having someone to talk to pretty much at all times, someone to share my interests and all and it's been a bit heavy to lose that, but I was a pretty lonely child and teen and back then I managed to get quite comfortable in my loneliness, it truly wouldn't upset me.
These people who stopped being my friends few months ago, we were very close and I have to accept it was a little too close in certain escenarios which is one of the reasons why we took distance.
Also, my relationship ended, and it just all feels like an open empty field right now in my life because there's really no one I can share with. I must say also that I'm a bit of a chronic yapper.
My point is that my loneliness isn't new to me, it doesn't hurt and I understand that people leaving are just making space for others who can give me freshness and newness, it's just... it feels icky.
I don't know how to deal with icky. I don't really miss these people anymore but there's a recognition of an empty space that gets my attention often and it bothers me, also not in a nostalgic way, just like, I don't know how to find people that will fill those spaces now.

Losing friendship is so difficult, even if it’s for the best 😓 The memories play over and over in your mind and there’s really no way to escape them. When there’s grief, it can be intense and gnaws at you.. I’m sorry that you’re dealing with so much loss

I also struggle with loneliness. I gravitate towards friendships where you can be emotionally vulnerable and invested and have that effort reciprocated back to you. But that seems hard to find for some reason? Sigh : (

Times like these are often great opportunities to look at your life .. Take an honest appraisal of what's working and what's not... Life has given you a clean slate to write your life large 🤗

yeah, it's always difficult when life changes really fast and hard like that. sorry.
but there's always a sw possibility, so maybe you'll increase your conversation width if not the depth.
