NOR the emoji spamming pissed me off.
Related note: my boyfriend is an introverted home body who will always default to comfortable clothes, and yet he is excited to attend a gala for a group I am a member of where he will have to dress up and talk to many very extroverted people. Your boyfriend just sounds selfish.
I'm sorry about your house and having to find out that your friends aren't as outwardly supportive as you'd hoped. Is it possible they just don't know what to say? I've got a friend whose Dad passed recently and I've been there for her, but tbh sometimes it feels odd reaching out to someone to be like "hey just a reminder that your Dad is dead, you still sad about that?" (obviously that is not what I say, just what it feels like).
When the dust settles and you have more time/energy for socializing, this might actually work out to be a mini-blessing. I love my fair weather friends: they're generally entertaining, I'm never disappointed about them letting me down because I expect nothing, and I know I won't feel morally obligated into reciprocating anything for them. I just spent the whole day with a friend who genuinely has no idea what's going on with my life because she can't be bothered to remember, and I still had a great time.
