[quote=Anonymous]All of the divorced people I know were not "couple" friends; that is, I was much better friends with one half of the couple before the divorce, so there was no big change during or after. If we were friends with both people equally, it could make socializing tricky, especially if one partner is trying to get gossip. Also, when I meet people now who are already divorced, I do feel like I have to edit what I say more since I don't want to come across as a "smug married" or somehow accidentally imply something insulting. I was at a Christmas coffee thing with some moms from my son's class, and one mom said something to another about how well the other mom's son was handling the divorce. It became very clear that this was the wrong thing to say, and very awkward. I think it's like any major life event that happens to someone you are not close to; it's hard to know if or how to acknowledge it.[/quote]
