[quote=Anonymous]DH and I have a couple friend we've been close to for a few years who we've spent a lot of time with. Since the pandemic started, they just have not been willing to get together, even outside, even doing something outdoors like just fishing. I've gotten together outside with a few other friends with kids just so our kids can get together, and I've gone on hikes with two other friends. But these particular friends-- they are a little older, too and don't have kids-- keep saying we'll get together again soon. And it never happens. They're both very healthy, so I don't think that's the issue. Maybe it's just me and my own expectations. I sometimes wonder if some people just don't want to deal with having to wear a mask around friends. I do know they have gotten together with a neighbor because my friend had mentioned that at one point this summer.

Strangely, it seems like it's easier with the kids around because the default place to go is a playground. With these friends I'm talking about, we'd usually have dinner parties or see a movie, so maybe they just feel the usual course of action for seeing us is out of the question. Just makes me sad. I know this isn't going to end with the vaccine, either. [/quote]
