I couldn’t relate when my (unmarried, childfree) friends started climbing the corporate ladder. “I beat out Thames for the Rothschild account! I now work 85 hours a week!” Why, just why, would you want to do that? “I took my laptop on vacation with me! I was in constant contact with my office!” “Well, I had zoom meeting while my partner was in labor. Don’t you know that the docs wouldn’t let me bring the laptop into the OR during the C section? Very inconvenient.” I am a YA librarian. I talk to tweens and teens for a living. I read their books. I make plans for fun events and movies. My spouse accuses me of being an 8 year old boy in a very good disguise . Who needs a corporate ladder when you get to plan water balloon fights and butterfly releases?
That’s funny my best childhood friend is getting married this fall, but we’ve both been so busy with college I find it hard to imagine us hanging out less ;/

Have any friends your own age to hang out with?
