I'm quite a bit younger than most of the people in my social group, so they had already "formed" when I got to highschool. I started off by throwing myself into the music geek/regular geek crowd, and it expanded. I dated one guy from the group, then lusted after the only other girl, and now I've been dating another for three years.
And yet, I still feel like "the girlfriend." It's hard to make other friends, when you like the ones that your partner has a lot. I guess it must be frustrating sometimes, as there's no one to talk to that doesn't know both sides of the story (which, I admit, is often necessary) But at least your friends like your boyfriend!
Could be worse, neh?
