When I was in college, I lost my boyfriend. Losing someone close to you like that is something that you don't really get over, but you just have to learn how to process and recover as best you can.
You probably aren't going to feel much better for awhile, and that's okay. A lot of feelings come up with this sorts of things, and you need to find a way to deal with them while they are there. I had a few things that helped me get through the hard times...
Primarily, I saw a therapist. My school provided me with free therapy. Whether you are in highschool or college, your school should have councilors on staff, and they are so incredibly helpful.
I also got a hobby. I didn't want to see my other friends much or leave the apartment for more than school and work for about a year after he died, (which probably wasn't very good for me), so I got interested in drawing more often and playing a few video games to keep me occupied.
If you can motivate yourself to go out with friends, then that's really a better thing... But just do something to keep your mind occupied. If you stay idle, you'll just think about them all the time and make yourself miserable. Sometimes survivor's guilt makes you feel like you deserve that misery-- you don't.
I won't say I know how you feel, because when people said that to me, it made me want to claw their eyes out. I hope my experience is at least a little helpful, though.
