Scenario

When longtime friends navigate different life stages and start feeling distant

My best friend and I have been close for fifteen years but since she got married and I'm still single, there's this weird new awkwardness where we're both trying too hard to prove nothing has changed while also not talking about how everything has changed. We're being careful with each other and I hate it.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

Two people are trying to preserve a connection by pretending transformation isn't happening, but intimacy requires witnessing each other's actual lives, not the lives that make the friendship feel safe.
