“My friend dropped me as soon as she got a boyfriend”

What could be going on

Limerence: An ordinary cause: early infatuation swamps everything; check if she comes back as it settles.

Fusion versus intimacy: Could be she merges with partners and loses other ties; check if it happened before.

Can't be alone: Fits if she moves from relationship to relationship and organises life around a partner.

Rejection sensitivity: Check whether her absence feels like total rejection to you, beyond what it is.

Need to belong: Your hurt reflects a real need; say it to her plainly rather than wait.
