Today, the last of my college friends is getting married and now I'm the last single one. Don't worry though, if one ever gets a divorce we can hang out again. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I found out that the last girl from my graduating high school class is engaged to her boyfriend. I'm now the only guy from high school who's still single and I'm not even 30 yet. FML
Today, as I was creeping on social media, I realized that literally everyone I've ever dated is either happily married, engaged, or in a relationship. My last date was at the beginning of the summer. FML
Today, I saw yet another dear friend from uni get married, living the good life in their new home. Here am I in my 30s, with no love life, and feeling like that's never going to be for me. FML
Today, I went to my best friend's wedding. All my friends and their boyfriends were seated at one table, while I, as the only single girl in the group, was put on a table with all the other single people. They were all over forty years older than me. I feel like I have seen my future. FML
Today, the last of my close friends announced she is pregnant. Meanwhile, I'm single and my nest is empty. Well, not exactly, because even my freaking cat is pregnant. FML
Today, I've had to accept that, despite my efforts to stay in touch with the few friends I made at college, I have zero friends. FML
Today, I went to my friend's beautiful wedding. The only other single girl there was 5 years old. She caught the bouquet. FML
Today, I found out that the last of my super feminist "I'm never getting tied to a man" college friends got engaged. Apparently, I should have tried that tactic, as my current partner in life is my goldfish. FML
Today, I attended my best friend's wedding. Instead of throwing her bouquet, she turned around and handed it to me. I was the only single lady out of 150 guests. FML
Today, my marriage counselor got divorced. FML

Marriage won't stop them from hanging out with you, if they really cared !!!

Have they actually told you that, or said they only want to hang out with married couples? Several of my friends are married, and we still hang out regularly.

Tell me about it. My "best friend" of four years, who helped me with depression, self-harm, high school, and all the curveballs that life threw, just abruptly stopped talking to me because she got a boyfriend. I supported her as much or even more than she supported me, and she just walked away without explanation. We did everything together. She was like a sister to me. She left two years ago and it still hurts sometimes. Maybe she was just using me because she didn't want to be alone.

Have you ever thought of adopting a cat? If you want to be the single stereotype, make the effort and go all the way dude

Well according to statics you have a 50% chance of getting each friend back. Kinda depressing for them though.

Some people find that to be kinda strained, especially when the couple has kids.

It doesn't really matter what they say so much as what they do. All of my married/coupled friends are pretty much MIA. They don't follow through on arrangements.

I agree with 7. Just because a friend is married doesn't mean they can never hang out. They might be busier, sure, but if they care, they'll find a way to make at least a little time for you. If not, well, that tells you how they prioritize you in their lives.

This may mean it's time to make new friends OP.

Why did this comment get so many downvotes?

That's what I hate about my friends' getting married. I totally support them and I'm so happy for them, but, no matter how good our intentions are to continue hanging out on occasion or going out for a meal once a month or so, those plans start falling apart so quickly, and before I know it, we're no longer talking. I still consider them friends and we exchange emails and FB messages every few months, but it's not the same. It's the curse of singles mixing with married couples, I guess. Best of luck to you and I hope your friendship survives it!
