grateful for meeting new people via /r/gratitude

I came from having a really large group of friends to only having 2 best friends and adjusting was hard. My 2 friends are the closest people to me and I am so grateful to have them in my life. i’m 23 and it’s been hard meeting new people since i graduated college. I have been isolating myself since my breakup and I finally went out with someone new who I have been dodging for a few months. She invited me out with her boyfriend and all of his friends and I had one of the happiest care free nights i’ve had in a while! They were so genuine and kind hearted, I was my complete self the entire time and I did not feel weird about it. They accepted me into their group like they knew me for years and even invited me to their bonfire they’re having coming up. I’ve been feeling so lonely and I went outside of my comfort zone and met some really incredible people. I can’t express to them directly what last night did for me but I wish they knew how good that made me feel. I just feel like I took a breath of fresh air. it feels so silly getting so giddy and happy about making new friends but I just finally feel like things are getting better for me.
