    Why not start going out with other friends, Work people or friends around the country?

    Maybe a change is what you need, everyone gets bored of friends at one stage or another

    I agree you need to start making new friends its very common for friends to drift apart as they grow older.

    You wont be "friendless" forever but it might take time until you can find friends that you can trust again.

    Going by your post, you're only friends with these people because you dont want to be friendless. Theres plenty of ways to make new friends. Us Irish people tend to struggle with this concept though. I found myself in your shoes before. I decided to not call them and if they didnt call me then to hell with them. It was difficult to though and found that I wasnt really getting to go out much. I was single aswell you see. When I moved job I kept getting asked 'where you normally go when you are out?' That made it a bit more difficult. But, I think the answer to your question might be what was the answer to mine. Remember your family, get involved with other social activities such as clubs or whatever and actually make a move on someone you fancy whether you male or female. Another thing to do would be to get phone numbers from people and use them. People only really call people when they need something, find things that you need and ask people.

    From what you say, you are already friendless.
    Meet some new people, in time they become friends.

    I have been feeling exactly the same recently about a certain group of friends. One of the friends has really changed to being indifferent, cold and really careless with other peoples feelings the other one is distant.. I haven't changed in the three years I've known them and I get told constantly how they want me to behave and embarrass me and exclude me infront of new friends. Although I'm upset about the way things have turned out I hate the way they make me feel when I'm around them. The first step is to remove their numbers from your phone. I'm lucky to have a consuming occupation and other friends who are genuine individuals without the same hangups.

    My advice - It's not worth it cut these people out of your life before they make you feel worse about yourself.
