How are things going with your local grown up friendships. How do you use your limited time? What's working? What's frustrating? How has your child's giftedness changed the way you interact with friends? Do you have categories or rules for local friends? When do you feel at home?
I have 3 local friends. One I see or talk to every day. This is 'pretty a lot' for me. All are raising children, so lack of time and energy get in the way. Since raising DS13, I've become more open to 'my gifted side' and gotten much better at picking gifted friends, who I'm enjoying more. Also, I used to spend a lot of energy trying to hide my intensity, and now I don't, so that makes my friendships more satisfying.
Love and More Love,
