6 outrageous shits you’ll feel when all your friends are attached

Ah, we all know of a friend we used to be #besties with. Until he or she got into a relationship and everything changed. I bet all of us have had this experience at some point in time. How do you feel when from the VIP in her life, you’re suddenly relegated to second-wheel like how Liverpool was almost relegated? Here are some things you can definitely relate to.

Suddenly, they have little to no time for you.
“Want to go watch movie?” “Want to go eat at XX cafe?” “Want to go to East Coast Park and cycle?” Where got time? While you are quietly happy that your friend has found her other half, you also can’t help but also be a little disappointed that you are no longer priority number one. Suddenly, she/he does not have time to hang out with you anymore.

And when you do go out, he/she is always texting.
It is already bad enough that our current generation of youths are already glued to their smartphones. Those who are attached are even worse (generally). Even when you get to hang out with your friend who is attached, he/she is always on his/her phone talking to their bae.

Also, when he/she is not texting, he/she just keeps talking about their other halves.
Yes, I know he’s brilliant and sweet and kind and cute, but I really don’t need to be reminded of this all the time. I am happy for you, but can we just talk about other things?

Your friend takes a week to get back to you on your meet-up plans.
Because he/she needs to see if he/she is going out with their other halves first. You might even get blue-ticked on WhatsApp a few times. Shucks.

Last time, she told you that “make-up was for losers”, but now she is all dolled up.
Ah, love doth change a person, yeah? She suddenly learnt how to put on make-up, buy nice clothes and match her outfit with her shoes. (While you’re still in FBT shorts and a school t-shirt.)

Also, the only time she comes running to you is when she is having trouble with her relationships.
For whatever we have said above, you still treasure your friend and want the best for her. So when she comes running to you about her boyfriend troubles, you lend a listening ear, and try your best to give relationship advice. #truefriend , right?

Despite how some priorities have changed, you still treasure the friendship you have with your friend who is attached, and want the very best for him/her. You still enjoy the moments you have when you actually meet (and when he/she is not using the phone) and go crazy and have fun together. Aww.
