Relationship Stress / by itssnowinginmarch

...See more Hello guys, this is something that has bothered me a lot lately. Let me start by telling you that I have a small group of friends, but we don't hang out as a group because they all live in different places, so I only see like one of them at the time. Two months ago I broke up with my boyfriends and like four of my friends did the same, so I thought that our friendship was going to be even stronger since we could go out more togheter. Two of them started hanging out with their old group, one is super far away from me and she doesn't work so she is literally living her best summer, one just came back from Argentina and so she is quarantined, the other one moved in with her boyfriend so is basically impossible to go out and do stuff and so on. I swear, everything is crazy. I feel like I'm the only one doing a real effort in trying to keep my relationships going, mostly of the time I'm the one that drives for hours just to spend some time with one of them (almost all of them own a car, so this means that they can come visit me too, even if I live in a small and boring place). I'm the only one that makes plans, and even if I speak with them everyday sometimes it feels like they don't even care about me that much. Let me help you understand with some examples; I told to one of them that I needed to check my car and the places is near her house, so she was asking me a lot when I was going to check my car so we could hang out (sweet, right? not so much if you think that she has a car too, and that she promised me that she was going to visit me at my place so we could go to the river together). The other one didn't even remember that I was super scared because her car is old and makes some weird noises (and this happened like two weeks ago). I swear I don't know what to think, sometimes I wish I had a group of friends to hangout all the time, like a lot of people that live near me so I wouldn't have to be the one driving every time. Truth is I don't really have friends that live nearby, or a proper group, and this upsets me a lot because I used to have one in middle school and it was the funniest thing in the world. What do you think I should do with my friends? Please, help me out because I'm going crazy. And I know that if I keep going on like this I'm going to get so mad that I will isolate myself and that is not what I want (also, depression, hi). Thank you for any advice and support.
