As a female with a decent social life and something to do all the time, when you get married some of your friends feel that you may not want to hang out with them as much anymore. I know some girls do that. Even when they have a boyfriend they drop their friends like flies. Other times, your friends feel like is their duty to "step back" and give you and yours some time to yourselves. I can say that my husband and I, spend a lot of time together experiencing a life that is just ours now. But I recently came to realize that, my friends were stepping back because they figured thats what I wanted. I had to let them know that without them, my life wasn't complete. Yes, things change after you get married, but it changes for good. At least in my case it did and I didn't just keep my friends around before I got married just to bide my time until I got married.
I think it all depends on being able to balance your time with friends, family, and your husband. Again communication is key. If I hadn't let my friends know how I felt, we all would have went on missing each other. Because I missed them, and they missed me. No one should just be wrapped up in just one things. GOD gave us people and experiences and we should grow from that. Keep them always and be thankful for them.
This is just one more bit of knowledge I have learned from being a newlywed. I'll continue to blog them as I experience them!
