Fake names for privacy.
At the beginning of last year I reconnected and became friends with someone I knew from high school, Kaylie. At the beginning I became friends with Christine through one of my other friends. Recently when hanging out with Christine I told her about Kaylie and they also knew each other in high school. I told Kaylie about Christine and she also wanted to reconnect.
My fear stems from three things.
1: Throughout school I was always the odd one out in my friend groups and it still lingers with me.
2: Kaylie is a lesbian and single and Christine is bi and in an open relationship. I'm worried that they'll start dating and I'll just be a third wheel when we're all hanging out together.
- All my other friends are guys and I haven't had many other friends who are women. I don't want to lose the only women I'm friends with.
I want them to be happy and friends, but I don't want to be left behind. I just don't know how to approach this. I don't want to drive them away myself because of my insecurities. I would greatly appreciate any advice anyone can give.
