Scenario

When your closest friendship changes as they get married

My best friend and I have been so close for fifteen years that people mistake us for a couple, and now she's getting married and I'm realizing I don't know how to love her without being the most important person in her life. We've never talked about what happens to us when her primary allegiance shifts, and I'm terrified of becoming possessive or resentful.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

The transition from being someone's primary emotional relationship to sharing that space requires renegotiating the very foundation of how you love each other.
