Dear Nicola,

For me, the hardest part about being single is that most of my friends in long-term relationships simply no longer have time for me. Our friendships have slowly but surely dwindled, to the extent that I've started to think it's just inevitable.

Do you think this is true and something I need to accept, or have I just been unlucky?

Am I no longer of interest or value because I'm not currently in a couple?

Jessica
