Have you ever thought about how much influence your friends tend to have on your lifestyle? Similarities become so common you see yourself turning into them more and more. The thought of 'you becoming like the people you hang with', got into my head when I started work. These people who I had became friends with are either married or getting married, and have noticed that their outlook on life is so much different in comparison to my own friends who are young but single. I too am in a stable relationship to a man I see a future in. It makes me wonder if I am hanging with the right group of friends as our interests have shifted to different directions. Maybe it's just me but I am just over late nights in town clubbing and drinking. I'd much prefer a quiet night in with good company and food. It might be that I'm growing up or have always wanted a family of my own and live a simple life. That is why I'm thinking a lot. Sometimes I feel as though I'm the one who's drifting apart. So I don't intend to ditch my friends but I might come off as that way. Oh well life is life. On a positive note, I am really enjoying work to not only socialize but also to grow as a person.
