    undefined> less time for each other

    This is what I mean, it’s not a thing you do on purpose that you end up mainly talking to your spouse but all your friends have less time to spend

      i get that. a lot of my friends are working on degrees or starting families. we don’t have as much time to hang out anymore. one thing that’s helped is expanding my social group. you don’t have to be tight with every friend. you can have specific friends/acquaintances for specific hangout sessions. have you tried connecting with local groups to expand your social circle? i’m sure you have some hobbies. these are just examples i’ve seen in my area:

      • weekly dnd group
      • gardening club
      • walking club
      • bar meetups
      • volunteer trash cleanup
      • board game nights
      • friend speed ‘dating’

      i’m not sure where you live, but you’re bound to find something. facebook is a garbage platform but one thing it’s good at is getting you up to date with local events and local groups. don’t like facebook? try finding local discord groups.
