Yeah, that would be tough.  We didn't have either of our friends who became the "marriage" friends, but I would imagine that would be hard.

I don't have many friends I talk to (or could talk to) on a regular basis, and often it seems like my friends and family are busy.  Or maybe that's what I tell myself.  I don't often reach out to people to talk a whole lot - sometimes I've wondered if I should have been reaching out to people more throughout my life.  I feel especially alone when I'm going through a hard time.
