Today I realized how alone I really am

In my mid-twenties now and in a very similar situation. I always had a group of fiends throughout school, different groups with different people at different times/years. Now...nothing. After HS and throughout college, no one really reached out to me into I did. We’d go years without contact and recently this year was added to a group chat, but...they just chat among themselves (which is fine, interact to be interacted with) but there are a couple people I never met I just don’t feel a part of that group, which is a similar way I felt about other groups in the past.

More recently, I’ve had coworkers saying they want to hang out (clubs, drinking, etc...things I don’t do so I say no), they insist over and over until I countered by changing up the plans up a bit and found out...it’s quite likely they just want me as their ride. ( .-.) Hm.
