We became great friends so fast. My emotional dependence exhausted her. I overcame the attachment. Yapping came effortlessly, we'd laugh for hours, felt comfortable with each other. I'm giving her space to process it. Can we be that close again one day?

Learn to be okay on your own. Depending on others for emotional comfort, support, etc. can be damaging. Learn to love you for you, and others will follow.

I’ve learned how to not be emotionally dependent from this. It just sucks feeling strongly for someone and feeling the care and love they had for me. but my brain can’t process how quickly i don’t feel that anymore. and only one friend now talking to me. it’s a lot all at once so fast

You’ll be okay. Give yourself sometime to grieve the relationship you guys had. This stuff is always overwhelming, there’s no making it easier. I’ve learned through the years that making the effort to have more friends is so so so important. It’s helped me be less lonely and not go through what you’re going through right now. It’s hard and takes time, but it’s achievable. You’ve got this!
