I don’t want to be a downer, so I’m not opening up about my family life.
We used to have the type of relationship in which we were very open. We told each other everything and had a lot of fun.
Those challenges completely changed the way our house runs. They dominate my day-to-day life. The thing is, talking about all that feels too heavy. I don’t want to be the friend who always brings down the room. I don’t have the capacity to take on managing anyone else’s feelings, while at the same time I wish I had more people to go out and have fun with. How can I be a good friend without sharing all the challenges?Now that the lockdowns are over and, for most people, life is returning to near-normal, get together face-to-face for a truth session with those friends. Tell them as much as you think they need to know, and enjoy them as often as you can.
