Having friends. Some of the best times I’ve ever had in my life were with friends. But I’ve had friends who made me feel absolutely miserable. Is it worth taking a chance on getting new friends?

It depends!
Do you have any hobbies? Friends these days are joined by interest.

I’m a good companion; when I had friends I liked going places and doing things.

People are strange. It’s hard to answer your question because I’m not actually in your shoes. I would personally be pickier when making friends going forward if you’ve had a bad experience ya know

I know being around people more improves my symptoms. Not everyone’s the same but in my case isolation just makes things worse. The people in my life are decent folks though.

Same here. Some of my best memories were with friends.
I’ve also lost friends. That was pretty brutal.
I think making friends at any age is beneficial.
Holding onto them is a different story.
But yeah man, def make some new friends if you’re up for it and have the energy.

For me, I think about my ex a lot… I don’t really miss her, but she’s the closest friend I’ve had since I’ve been an adult basically.
I feel like she’s my last lover I will ever have too, which is kinda sad, but thankfully she was a really good, sweet person that left a lot of good memories. I’m just thankful she was nice enough to date me.
With all that said, I don’t miss her, but it does make me miss having a friendship like that. So I get what you’re saying
