Married, young 20's, no friends
I'm stuck in a rut with no social life and it's starting to make me feel uneasy...
A week ago I planned a ladies night of 7 gals for tomorrow evening including wine, games, swimming, backyard fire pit, etc.
every single girl declined...
Im starting to lose myself.

Gosh, that sounds hard.....I'm sorry your plans didn't come off.
I wonder what there reasons were? When you're feeling low, everything can feel like a personal affront, as if it reflects really badly on you, but that doesn't have to be the case. It's also easy to put off your friends if you're feeling down. So if you decline a number of invitations, they too may take it as a personal insult and think 'she didn't come to my do, why should I bother with hers'.
Do you feel able to speak to any of these friends about your loneliness. Perhaps you could meet them one on one for coffee? If friends realise you're struggling, rather than thinking you've been aloof, hopefully they will have it in them to be there for you.
