Scenario

When longtime friendships change after major life transitions

My best friend and I have been close for fifteen years but since she got married last year something has shifted and we both keep pretending everything is fine. We used to talk about everything and now our conversations feel careful and surface-level, and I think we're both afraid that naming it will prove we've grown apart.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

The fear of acknowledging change can become more damaging than the change itself.
