Is it ok to be happy

My partner and I are blissfully happy and in love, but over the last six weeks we have had four sets of friends brake up. I now find that some of these people are now acting strange around us, like we aren't meant to be happy because they aren't. Both my partner and I have been married before so we know what they are going through and are trying to be supportive but it is hard when they are being short tempered and gloomy all the time when around us it really brings the mood down for everyone. My question to the world is have others found this among their friends, does it get better or have we lost our friends.

Yes it is perfectly ok to be happy. As others have said before me it if things that your friends are working through that is making them the way they are atm. Be there for them but don't get too caught up in their misery or it will bring you down too. Sometimes friendships are for a season and you have to step back and accept that.
