54 分钟Hey, it's your friend Mel, and welcome to the Mel Robbins Podcast.
Yeah, I'm going to start by admitting something to you.
I'm not really proud of this, but I think you're going to relate to it.
This morning, I went down a little bit of a rabbit hole, and it just was kind of one of these moments that wasn't that big of a deal, but it kind of became one.
You know, it just started off like any other morning.
I had my coffee and I pick up my phone, and so naturally, of course, I hop on social media, and it seemed like every single post in my feed was of people having an amazing time.
They were, like, at reunions and weddings and birthday parties and concerts and bachelorette weekends and dinners out and girls weekends.
And I just started to feel like, does everybody have plans but me?
I know my daughters complain a lot about this, and I also know that it's not just women.
It's guys, too, that feel like, oh, wait a minute, is everybody else getting together?
And I'm the one that is left out.
And you've probably had this same experience right where you're sitting there, you're scrolling on Instagram, and you're like, oh, my God, I don't feel like I have any friends anymore.
Am I the only one in the planet who doesn't have plans to do something cool this weekend?
What the heck?
And before I went any further, I knew that I needed to get up here above my garage and get on the microphone and talk to you about this, because I know I'm not the only one.
And this is a topic, adult friendship that everybody is thinking about and talking about, from making new friends to how do you stay connected to your old ones to the thing that's really hard.
What do you do when your friendships start to fade and you feel like you have no friendships?
And this is something I've been wanting to talk about because.
Because I need you to know I am shoulder to shoulder with you right now.
Feeling a little lonely, feeling a little bit like a loser.
