Did you find as you started motherhood that your relationships with your friends who are not married or don't have kids or both changed? And if you are single or don't have kids did you find that your relationship with your friends who have kids and/or are married changed? Or if you have kids did your relationship with friends that have kids change?
I'm the only one of my friends that is married and has a child (well 2 including my pup). And I have found that I don't feel as close to any of my friends anymore. I don't know if it's the change to becoming a mom that has done this or if it's my entire situation or what it is or if I've always been like this.
Certainly. I was the first of my friends to get married/have a baby/graduate college, and as a results I fell away from people whom I had been very close to.
ReplyDeleteI think that people are constantly growing, sometimes together or sometimes apart, but often at different rates. You may find these friends catch up with you down the road, or perhaps you'll grow into relationships with new friends as well.
