So, I’ve been thinking a lot about this lately. My girlfriend, she’s like, my rock. We’ve known each other since, I don’t know, forever? We started dating, and now, she’s pretty much the only person I hang out with. It sounds kind of lame, I know, but it’s true.
In the past, I tried making friends. I joined a few clubs in college, went to some parties, you know, the usual stuff. But honestly, it always felt so forced. And without fail, something would happen and I will find out they were just using me.
Like, there was this one time, I thought I was getting close with this group. We studied together, grabbed food a few times, everything seemed cool. Then, out of nowhere, they asked me to do some stupid illegal stuff. I refused them, and they just ignored me since then. That’s when I started to realize, maybe big friend groups just aren’t my thing.
With my girlfriend, it’s different. We can talk about anything, or nothing at all, and it’s just… comfortable. We watch movies, play video games, cook together, and sometimes just sit in the park.
We have our own little world, and I’m happy in it. She wants to get married soon, but I just have a little issue with her family. I talked to her about this, and she seems to understand. I think I can go through this with her.
We don’t need a huge group of friends or a wild social life. As long as I have her, I think I will be fine. And she really is my best friend. No drama, no fakeness, just us. In this world, you know, that’s all you really need.
