sistermagpie: Sigh. (Monet)
( Sep. 1st, 2010 11:47 am)
I saw this article about the declining interest in and importance of friendship linked on Tumblr earlier and thought it said some interesting things. Even if you don't agree with everything in it I think it brings up some really basic points about how relationships tend to get weighted now. Especially the way that romantic relationships and marriage for a lot of people are expected to take on a lot of the job that friendship used to have. More rambling in here. )
