<human>: Give me a shortened version of the text

So, in true TIFU fashion, this didn't happen today, but about 4 years ago. I'd met this girl in July of '11, and instantly had a thing for her: funny, gorgeous, very personable, everything. We finally ended up getting together in October of the same year. Now, at the time, starting a little bit before I met the girl (we'll call her Jes for the rest of the TIFU), my group of friends at the time (most of which I'd know for at least 5-6 years, the longest I'd known one for was about 15 years) were getting real big into the party "lifestyle". Drinking every night, smoking weed before anything, stuff like that. I wasn't really into it, so I started "distancing" myself, especially after I got dragged to a party, that the cops ended up breaking up.

So, initially, I would just make excuses to stay home, but eventually, I'd end up going over there anyway, because who wants to sit home when they could be out with their friends, regardless of what's going on? But, once I started hanging out with Jes, I started blowing them off, not responding to texts as often, etc...

Eventually, I just stopped responding at all, and they just kind of...faded away (as cheesy as that sounds). We'd still see eachother occasionally, and have quick conversations, but even that ended once Jes and I moved a city or two away. Now, all I can do is see on my Facebook feed every now and then, statuses and pictures of them all going on with life, having fun together, while I'm just sitting here, in my living room, wishing I had people to make plans with or talk to. I can't just go out and make new friends, because I also have a two and a half year old daughter, and bills and shit.
<bot>: Didn't listen to the good ole saying "Bro's before Hoe's", now I'm wishing I still had some Bro's instead of 1 good "Hoe".
