Hi , In midlife, many of us are rethinking our female friendships. This significant life transition—potentially involving new priorities, a geographic move, a change in work or marital or family status, a new mindset—may precipitate a desire for new friendships. This may also mean letting go of friendships that no longer serve us. Maybe we've grown apart. Maybe the relationship was only tenable when our kids were besties. Maybe we've realized some relationships are simply too toxic to maintain. Most of these friendship changes happen fairly naturally, through gentle attrition. The emails, texts, calls and get-togethers become less frequent until they stop altogether. Both sides are on the same page. No hard feelings. But sometimes one friend is ready to move on while the other is not. And that can be painful. I myself have been on the receiving end of this
unexpected unfriending, leaving me hurt and bewildered. I'll give you two examples. Happy Thanksgiving to all in the US! |
