When I was single, I had mostly female friends who I hung out with, traveled with, etc. I had no interest in being in a relationship with them. But when I got remarried, they went to wayside. Not because of jealousy. Just because I didn’t need the drama. A major cause of first marriage ending was emotional infidelity on both sides. I work remotely in consulting (full time job in the consulting department at $Bigtech) and teams only last as long as a project last. It’s even harder now that my wife and I are “digital nomadding” flying across the US and not setting up roots anywhere. My one close friend that I’ve kept in touch with since high school 30 years ago has small kids now. We try to squeeze time in. But it’s hard.
