Making friends seemed a lot easier when the kids were younger.
School, sports, neighborhoods, birthday parties — there were a hundred built-in reasons to keep seeing the same people. Then the kids grow up, people move, routines change, and some friendships just fade.
In Episode 7 of Life After the Nest, I’m talking about what friendship looks like in this stage of life.
Why is it so easy to meet people but so much harder to actually become friends?
Why are men sometimes especially bad at maintaining friendships?
What happens when one spouse is more social than the other?
And how do you turn someone you know casually into an actual friend?
I also talk about what Cheryl and I have learned from moving to Florida and having to rebuild parts of our social life from scratch.
This episode gets into changing friendships, one-sided relationships, couple friends, making the first move, and one question I think matters more than all the others:
Am I being a good friend?
Because most of us want better friendships. But better friendships usually require somebody to go first.
