Living with a husband is pretty fun.  All I want to do is hang around him all day.   I can see how it would be easy for me to slip into a hermit lifestyle and just get comfortable becuase companionship is only a few square feet away.  However, there are times when I still feel lonliness butterflies.  There were a few jokes and activities that I want to share that would not be fully appreciated by a husband.  Like shopping, and gossiping and going out dancing or to a tea shop.  Sure I could have done some of these things alone, but it wouldn't feel the same.  It's also not the same feeling doing these things with just anyone.  I miss the comfort of the ones who know me the best and who I genuinely love and care about.  I know they're only a short distance away, but I fear that the switch into my new (married) lifestyle only stretches that distance.   I am very blessed to have people with whom I feel connected to on such a deep and caring level, and that is something that I will always need in my life no matter what.
