Substitute male for female, and I was you 10 years ago. My advice? Don't compromise. If you dislike superficial friendships, the you're not going to get along with most people by nature. You have a best friend and a boyfriend. Assuming each loves you, then you're doing better then most. It sucks not to have buddies to call to go to the movies on a Wednesday, but grad school kind of ruins casual friendships, unfortunately. The upside is that you get to figure out who the people are whom you can rely on like family.
