No best friend - lonely

...See more Over the past three years I've lost my two best friends. As friends - not like they passed. The first one I was closer with. The friendship ended because I spoke my mind about her husband and she ended our friendship over that. The second was more recent. She recently went through two major life events. She lost her mom and found out her husband had been cheating and they divorced. She started seeing a man right after the divorce was final and won't answer my texts and never reaches out. It's been nothing for about 6 months so I've given up. I feel so lonely. I have a lot of close friends but not one of them is someone that I would feel that level of best friend-ness with. Part of this could be that this summer my major depressive disorder is really bad. And that I'm an introvert. If I have a bestie, my ideal quality time is just us watching movies and drinking Asti. I've even thought of going on the "friend" version of Bumble but that is too much work and feels weird to me. I do have a very supportive partner but he can't provide the best friend qualities I need. Any suggestions or experience?
