To the Girl without a "Friend Group,"
You are like me. You have many friends, but are not in a specific friend group. I understand. You can feel left out. Well, just remember that people love you. They might not invite you out to see the latest movie or invite you on an adventure. I perfectly understand, but even if I do not get invited everywhere, I still know that my friends love me and have my best interests at heart. I do not have one solid friend group, but I have a bounty of friends. I have my gold friends and my silver friends.
People love to be around you and are interested in your accomplishments. You always strike up a conversation with other people. You are an extrovert, but also an introvert. You do enjoy a birthday dinner with some friends, but the next day you may go grocery shopping by yourself and feel perfectly fine. That is me. I try to talk to a new person each day, hoping to be good friends with them or at least solid acquaintances. I love the nights where my friends invite me to go out because those nights are worth remembering.
Look at the last part of this quote by Audrey Hepburn. You are never alone. There is someone who loves you. Someone is looking out for you. You may not have the Friends friend group or you might not be as popular as Blair Waldorf, but does that really matter? Some people are popular for their kindness and genuine spirit. Sometimes not having a solid friend group or not being popular is a good thing. Sometimes having different friends NOT in the same group can be a good thing.
I will say this. I had a friend group in high school. And I still have them as my closest friends. I literally just went to The Cheesecake Factory with all of them and had a wonderful time. We all go to different schools and we have all made new friends. However, all of my friends from high school are super nice, so of course they have new friends. But so do I, I may not have a solid friend group in college, but I know that my college friends love me. In plus, they have all told me that they do anyway.
So girl, don't you dare worry if you see on social media that some of your friends are out without you. They love you. Do not fret if your friends leave you for their boyfriends. You are loved by so many. I mean my parents are my best friends. I talk to my parents every day. I have silver friends who love me and gold friends who love me. And I love them and will be there for them through anything.
Oh and I almost forgot how can you forget about the loving God that is ALWAYS with you. No one is truly alone. God is always with us. God is always watching over us. God knows all. God knows everything.
From,
