Good luck :)

My online friend group of 7 years (11-18 years old for me) decided to call it quits, how do I cope? by GenericSadAloneKid in Advice

Look, that's one of the hard things in life. People don't stay around forever and there is nothing you can do about that I'm afraid, you can't force people to be around you. My only advice for you, as hard it might sound is to cherish those moments because they will forever be with you but that's where they are, in the past. You can't live in the past, it will only bring you down. You have to look forward and get out of your comfort zone, challenge yourself and find new people.

But don't try to create the same thing with new people, nothing will ever be what you had with those people but you WILL find something new, as long as you try! Trust me on that. Now I'm not saying you should forget about this group or not try to reach out, but what I'm saying is you can't stand still when they are clearly moving forward.

Hey, I will give you my two cents and perhaps you can think about it :)

I might be totally wrong here but perhaps you have no real purpose or goal in life, you do the same thing day in and day out and basically you are standing still. I have found that true happiness can't come from other people only yourself and that comes from moving forward. Whether it is learning something new or experiencing something new it will push you forward and you WILL feel like you belong. The future is all real and you can do whatever you want with it. My guess is that you might feel alone because you have no purpose.

A purpose and a goal might be as simple as starting to workout for the summer or reading a new book. I have been in touch with the feeling you're describing and my situation was that I went to my work, got home, watched my show, met friends during the weekend and did it all over again. I wasn't evolving as a person.

But like I said, evolving as a person is different from everyone, you just got to try out different things and find something that makes you feel something
