Did you read that article in the
NY Times about the difficulties of making friends in your 30s? When I moved here the idea of not making friends was one of my biggest fears. I don't know how I got so lucky to have such great lady friends. There was also
this short article in Jezebel about going on first dates with lady friends. I totally get nervous for first one-on-one lady dates!
A couple Sundays ago we celebrated Erin's birthday with a potluck brunch with mimosas, of course!

what a thought-provoking article! I get really nervous in those situations, too. I will always make sure I have a buffer friend and will stress to a ridiculous degree if I don't. There are maybe 4 women in my life that I can relax one-on-one with!
ReplyDeleteBuffer friends are essential! My favourite buffer pals are ones that can talk to anyone about anything...also wine is a pretty good buffer pal of mine.
ReplyDeleteDo you remember our first lady date at Buccacinos?????
