That was a great story on LemonDrop about the craigslist call-girl.
1I like that she kinda shows both sides, yes it can be kinda glamorous (making "serious bank") but it can also be very dangerous (when she was first raped).
My favorite part is that she doesn't condemn any woman that chooses that path for herself.
Honestly, when I'm hanging out with my single gals, I feel like an old-married woman because I usually couldn't go hit the clubs with them anymore (my hub won't be too happy if I do). Heh. I usually just met them for lunch/coffee/shopping.
2But it's all good though.
Why do friendships have to end when you get married? Naturally I would think there are some changes to how much and who you might hang out with once you get married or even start dating someone seriously.
3I think it's funny how there's been so much talk surrounding Aretha's hat, go to any Baptist or Pentecostal church and every other woman will be wearing something similar.
I think the article about "single girl friendships" ending is spot on. It's not saying that you won't have the same friends when you get married, or that you won't have single friends or friends of your own. It's just saying that your friendships transform when you're coupled. I completely agree.
4I think if a friendship ends because one of them gets married is so stupid. It's just about a transition, not ending. If it ends you didn't have much of a friendship to begin with...
It's no different than when you have friends much younger than you, sometimes you just have different ideas of what is "fun" when you socialize.
5I agree, aimee, which is why I like the piece. The author simply writes about those friendships transitioning, not ending.
6Yep, I've had it happen. But its a choice based on a person's maturity level and need for balance between relationships. It's not inevitable.
7I agree Kelliegrl!
8It is hard to find the same amount of time with your single girlfriends.
9Things change and it's not the same. You can go out alone with them always but its never quite exactly what it was. But then again would you grow old and single with them forever? Would they? Nope. The future brings changes to everyone. Only the strongest friends with withstand the roads we go down and you can always, always count on that.
