[quote=Anonymous]Op I feel like you. It hurts that as we progress in life, I realize that a lot of friendships are simply about money. Even if it doesn't SEEM that way, it's true because of reciprocating. There are a few exceptions--really low maintenance people who maybe are more about trading favors. Watch the kids, help you move, join your wall painting, lend you a lawn mower. We are on a 7 year plan to finish our debt. The faster we can do that, the better for everyone. It might happen sooner too. I feel like our social budget has no place in our lives currently, including sprucing up the house so it's better for entertainment. (Or alternatively getting a regular babysitter and going out with those friends). +if we do have a little extra cash, it's not consistent. Certainly not enough to keep a few friendships going regularly. I don't think I have a solution. I get it...reciprocating is important to everyone. But it's a time in our life we feel friendless.
