Where does a married woman go for friends?

Question

I have no true friends and I need someone to talk to. I have been married for almost 9 years and now we are slipping away from each other. This is the worse our marriage has ever been. I feel like I have no one to talk to ever. When I go out, it is with my sister and all we do is get drunk and act a fool. I just want someone in my life that I can chill with, relate to, and have fun. My husband used to be that person but now he isnt there for me. He is just always angry with me. 24/7.

Answer 1

The first thing I would advise you to do is get marital counseling.  This can be helpful for both of you because you are able to talk it over with a professional who can sort things out.  It also allows both of you to speak your minds freely and get what is really going on out in the open.  Secondly, if you want to make new friends or have companionship you need to show yourself friendly.  I have to admit in these days its very difficult to find good friendship.  The way you find it is by going out into public places like church, or you could volunteer which allows you to meet new people.  If you are working, try making friends on the job.  There are many ways to make friends, even in your community.  I hope you find good friends and that your husband and yourself get the issues resolved..  

Answer 2

Church is an excellent place.  A more younger couples are going these days.  Many churches have social clubs for younger couple to discuss issues.  You could try volunteering also. That's an excellent way to meet active women who may be able to relate to you.

Answer 3

Talk to him find out together what is going on!  You can get counseling together maybe that will help!

Answer 4

First work on fixing your marriage unless you are looking to give it up. If you find someone to connect with outside of your marriage, you are pretty much putting the nails in the coffin. If you are looking for friends, have you tried church, the job, community or neighborhood groups. Friends are definitely hard to find the older we get. It just would probably be nice also if you could spend time figuring out what went wrong with your marriage so that you will feel less alone.
