3 women get candid about the highs and lows of friendship in lockdown
, but what about our friendships?
'I felt guilty about this for several weeks early on and would approach phone calls as though it was a list of chores and I was ticking them off, one-by-one.'After the initial drive to stay in contact with everyone subsided though, it soon became clear who I actually wanted to speak to — and who made the effort with me — and I'd find myself speaking to the same three or four people over and over, rather than lots of different people.
'I'm not sure what my friendship circle will look post-lockdown, but the thought of expanding it back to lots of loose connections feels tiring rather than exciting.'Harriet*, 37, Whitchurch 'I know that when I go abroad I'll text friends telling them about what I'm doing or funny anecdotes about crossed-wires in foreign languages, but it never really crosses my mind to message her, and I know she's the same.'I thought things might be different in lockdown as it's such a long time and such an extreme situation, but we haven't really spoken at all.
