AITA for talking about my discontent in singleness to my friend thats engaged. I have multiple friends that are engaged or in happy relationships, and whenever they ask what’s wrong, and I’m honest and say I just want to be loved, they shut down the convo

I know it’s not bc they don’t care about me, it’s just that it might feel weird to them… and I get that. But I feel like if you ask someone what’s wrong (esp who’s in a known mental low atm) you need to be expecting an honest answer

I’m ngl, you might need to make some single friends asap. They can’t relate to you so ofc they’re going to feel uncomfortable or bothered by you expressing ur discontent in life. It’s not fair, but it’s just reality. When my friend was in a happy relationship she completely forgot about me, but I tried not to take it personal cause we were just on opposite ends of life struggles so

Exactly. And it’s not like I’m asking for them to feel bad for me. I’m an adult and can get over it. But if I matter to them, I feel like they should be able to listen to me

And I definitely agree with this. I have my roommates who are single but they are gay and I… am not lol. So it’s not always the same. Definitely need to work on a community where we can actively be there for each other
