I hung out with my two best friends yesterday. I’ve known these guys for nearly 6 years and we’ve been super close for most of that.

We all moved from our secondary to the same college but they stayed in the same friend group and I drifted to a new one. Obviously this isn’t a bad thing and I love my friends and I know im welcome with their friends whenever but I can’t help but feel stuck - like I’ve been left behind.

They’re going on a trip with their new friend group and again, it’s a good thing and I’m super excited for them but it’s also killing me a bit. I feel like they’ve been growing up and changing over the 6 years and I’m just stuck. They’re going off and exploring the world and doing amazing things while I’ve had the same interests for 5 years and am still processing stuff from before I even met them, trying to get by day to day.

It’s so strange because our dynamics are identical to what they were 4 years ago but it feels so different.
