[quote=Anonymous]I am an introverted wife but love being around my kids. The hardest thing about being married has been the constant pressure pre-COVID to professionally socialize for hours every week. I talk a lot and easily and try to be very present when spending time with anyone but after 1-2 hours max I am drained and ready to go home. These days without dinners, receptions, BBQs, parties, drinks, and playdates have been the happiest of my married life. I have already told DH that I won't do it again. When we return to his country this summer he will have to visit friends and family without me -- no more spending 5 or more hours in boring conversation over shared meals. Even my kids have noticed that the cloud of anger and anxiety that enveloped me has lifted now that life is no longer a rush to find the right cocktail dress and pumps. [/quote]
