Sometimes, they need a break

It’s hard to accept, but your friends may retreat sometimes right now. It has nothing to do with not loving you and everything to do with preserving their mental health. Nobody wants to be surrounded by darkness and depression. Not even you, right? It’s the natural tendency of happy people to gravitate towards other happy people. Your friends will still be there for you, but they may spend more time with other friends.
