Social or no Social, that is the question!

School has started again. Back to the smells of new books, and optimistic teachers. Back to the new clothes and new roomates (for some), and all the socials you can handle. This year is so different from any other year. I haven't had the crisp feel of starting something new and making it worth while. I want to do my homework and just get it done with. I think it might be because of the big change that has occured in the past little while or because I'm just growing up. Either way, it's had a large effect on me. It's been good to see my old friends and to reunite after the long summer. I've missed them. Yet, at the same time I don't want to hang out with them, I don't want to be where there is so much flirting one can hardly breathe, or in the situation where numbers are being given and dates are being planned...the single social scene. None of it pertains to me anymore. I don't want to go anywhere with out Todd unless it's a class or work. Even then, I wish he were with me. We want to keep our friends, they mean a lot to us, but it's like, they have to come to us instead of us going to them. How many singles do you know that want to hang out with the local marrieds? NONE! How do I juggle this situation? I'm supposed to cleave unto my husband, and I feel like I am, but at the same time, I wish I could still keep up the friendships that I've made in the past two years.
