By this I mean doing things for ourselves, and conecting with our BFFs ends up taking a back seat. It's wrong, but I do beleive it happens. <br />Hugs to you.Stephaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17218519474695662328noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5136763350284688012.post-36366607038082715682012-10-25T13:39:21.526-04:002012-10-25T13:39:21.526-04:00Nothing is more hurtful than feeling like you are ...Nothing is more hurtful than feeling like you are not a priority in the life of someone you care about. <br /><br />I haven't gotten together with my closest friends in who knows when. We will send each other messages from time to time on facebook saying how we all really need to get together soon..."Oh, I know..I know..we really do!" and then we just let it go and never plan anything. Social media is great but I definitely think it has moved many of us away from real live face to face interaction.

When I realized I wasn't a priority it made me take extra care in showing my children that they are my number one priority. It helped me to refocus my frustration into something positive.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.andtheycallmemommy.blogspot.com" rel="nofollow">Lacey @ And They Call Me Mommy</a> Lacey Shttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01250271598245854413noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5136763350284688012.post-34327480107795967542012-10-24T16:37:55.721-04:002012-10-24T16:37:55.721-04:00Yup!

It's just like high school and longing to be with the 'popular' crowd. After high school, it doesn't seem as important any more.
