Wedded Wednesday: Single vs. Married

I have been involved in a few casual discussions about , if married people should socialize or hang out with single people. When the discussion first came about I thought this is dumb, since I was once single and I had married friends. I guess the argument is that, if you are married that do not have anything in common with a single person any more or that you may start acting like you are single when you have other commitments waiting on you at home. I think that is silly, especially since I have several good single friends that I do things with and feel that I should have to give up those relationships because I am married. What do you think?

I think it is important to surround myself with married and unmarried friends and family. Just like gay/straight/bi etc. or black/white/Chinese I think the marriage vs. single demographic is just another separation in any group of people.

To me, the more variety in ones life the better. Each group and person has a unique way of thinking, living, etc. and it is important to me to expose us and our family to all kinds of people.

I totally agree. I think that if everyone was the same, that we would all be pretty boring.

Hi, thanks for dropping by and leaving a comment. I like you're blog too. I'm going to look around some more :). Regarding your question, I do agree with you that you shouldn't have to abandon your old friends or even stop making single friends when you become married. You just have to set limits (especially when it comes to doing things that may not be appropriate when you're married)

@ Mrs. K-Thanks for stopping by. I do agree that you have to set limits on relationship or change them a bit, but not totally abandoning them.

Love, Marriage and then a _______________

Love, marriage and then a baby carriage. I am preggers. I am 15 weeks pregnant. I know that it is not fall along, but I wanted to share our blessing on my blog. We are very excited about the little one, that we are currently calling Baby J. I have not had much sickness. I have had periods of nausea, but it is not consistent. I have noticed that my body is changing, as it should. I just guess that I was not expecting my body to change that quick.  As my friend, Bev says, " Your growing a life. What do you expect?" She is right. Really, I do not know what to expect. It will be quite a little journey as another part of me sweeping through  life.
