Hi Barbara,

I can relate to this topic of friendship transitions as we age. I am in a different age bracket than you – 36! – but feel a strong resonance with this experience. I’ve found new friends online through forums, groups, and common interests, and yet it’s not the same as having a friend to go to lunch with or grab a glass of wine with. I’ve heard of many people liking “meet up” groups for new connections. I’ve made the conscious decisions to keep expanding myself and my interests with the trust that the right people will show up in my life who are also looking for me.

Warmly,

Molly
