Usually im the type to go out & be with my friends, but lately im totally content being in bed with a bag of chocolate chips & my cell to text my boyfriend & my best friend... im kinda social @ school but i always spend lunch & breaks with my boyfriend... im kinda wondering where my friends are & when im around them it just isnt as fun as it used to be, this year i just started going to school away from all my old friends & its kinda hard for me to meet new people, wer cool during classes & assemblys but now we hav a 2 week vacation & i think im gna spend most of it at home alone with my family & that dosent bother me at all, im actually excited for it.
Which is so wierd for me! I feel like im changing as a person. I dont usually do long term relationships but me & my boyfriend have been dating for two months already (we've been really close for the past 2 years) & i know im not going to kiss him for another 6 months but just being near him & talking is so nice. I do have to be the breaks with him though.
My question is, is this a healthy way to live my life or should i be more concerned about being out with my friends? Ittle be 9 at night & theyll call me to come over & bake cookies but theyr so hyper & they scream a lot & as much as i love them im just in the mood for a low key night. Movies, popcorn, etc. & i feel like nobody i know except my boyfriend knows how to just chill.
My boyfriend is a homebody all the time, and it's nice to know that when I hit that mood that I can just go and chill with him... but I drag him out too.

I don't think it's wrong and I don't think anything is wrong with you. I just think you are growing up and changing as a person.
Things that used to make you happy in the past no longer make you happy. You choose to do other things. People change and develop at different paces in their lives. It's just part of figuring out who you are.
You seem like you are a thinker. That's a good thing. Your friends might start to think that you are a party pooper. That's okay too. Explain to them how you feel. They'll come around.
In the meantime, do what's best for you and what makes you happy. It'll all work out in the end.
I hope I helped.
Good luck,
