It’s hard when you show up 110% and no one is willing to reciprocate

I had to learn that for most people being "friends" as an adult means meeting up for drinks 3-4 times per year. It's pretty unrewarding so I find I'm not making the effort anymore.

I try this with multiple friends. Unless I ask call and schedule it doesn’t happen.. it’s so exhausting for me. I value friendship.. no one else seems to make the effort.

Adult friendships are something else! The most beautiful thing but will cut you to your core.

Will never understand why it’s so hard for people to understand this as someone who is always making the plans and would rather people show up than wait for an unnecessary invite

Christina :
It’s very hard being 52 and being someone that’s been single for a long time. I don’t fit in the box with the rest of the women that are around me. My kids are all grown. I don’t have a significant other. I don’t have much in common with anyone anymore.
