This new job leaves me pretty starved for social interaction. Yes there's one person I talk to on break, but its not the same as my friends. Since I get done at 10, its kinda late to call and talk. The non-boyfriend boyfriend talked with me Thursday night and friday night when I called on my drive home. Last night, I called too, but he said he was tired and didn't really want to talk. And tonight, his phone was off.
 And my good friend who was texting me said I could call, but she didn't answer either. She had been drinking and said maybe I wouldn't want to talk but I never said that woud bother me. And lastly, another friend that I don't see a lot since this job and who is usually up for a chat did talk with me but then said he "had to let me go"- hate that phrase!- and I guess hung up!  Am I going hypomanic or just starved for company?? Phooey. I do have a lot going on and I miss seeing my friends.

Has this only happened since the new job?
If so I would blame your rotten work hours. It is hard to say more since I don't know any of your friends.

The nonbf bf and I used to chat lots of nights at bed time which is 10 for him. So I don't see how this is different. He hasn't told me anything different so it leaves me guessing. I know a few things that are playing on his mind but why should a "hi how are you?" be too much?

you ask if they are ignoring you..or if it's just you. I am betting it's just you, i bet they are not ignoring you. I know sometimes your mind can play games trying to make you feel like crap. I hope you will be able to reconnect, maybe the weekend..or tomorrow. At least i hope it's just you...

My guess is is that it is more of a coincidence that the nonbf bf and the the 2 other friends are all unavailable to talk all at the same time. Taken together as a group it looks worse then each person & incident taken by itself. I would give it more time and not look at them/it as a group since they are separate individuals and incidents.

I go through that a lot where I don't hear from people for a couple of days especially lately since I've been down it usually turns out that they just had something going on and got a little busy. I sometimes work myself up to the point of thinking that they are all going out and just excluding me. That has never been the case with my friends just in my mind I hope you hear from them soon, don't get discouraged

I am very outgoing and talk to my AA sponser almost every day...if he does not hear from me for a day he always calls me.
