I believe in romance. It’s a part of my spirit that I hope to have always. I romance life. Myself. Nature. Creativity. What does it look like to romance our friendships?
This bit that your therapist shared struck a chord, Amanda: "Just like romantic relationships, they’re intense, they evolve, and sometimes they’re not meant to last forever.”
Like you, I put a lot of care and intention into my female friendships; I take them very seriously. It took me a long time to accept that some friendships are meant for a certain season in my life. Some are meant to evolve and wither.
I'm with you, and I love this phrasing of "evolve and wither." I think we're so resistant to letting things change and possibly end, but it's inevitable and sometimes just a part of relationships. Thank you!
