I wish I could be happy for you

[aerna]

So my two best male friends, C and P, now tell me in the same week they're seeing people. Now they both have, well, girlfriends.

And me, the funny woman in between them, mentor/sister/mother figure...is still alone.

I want to be happy because C has been trying to date for ages but kept getting rejected. And mercy, he's taken it well. No pity parties

I don't think you're a whiny bitch. I think you're human. You want romantic companionship, and your guy friends can't or won't give it to you, since they treat you as a 'buddy'. It's a totally normal feeling.

I think it's a guy thing that they can't handle a lot of emotional talk, so that's why P's processing it as 'whininess'.
