Dear Coleen, I’m a 40-year-old woman with one child, aged eight. My divorce came through a couple of months ago and I’m finding myself in a weird place socially.
My social life used to revolve around going out with a group of other couples. Since the split with my husband, I’ve carried on seeing some of the women, but I’m no longer invited on the couples’ nights out, which I guess is fine.
However, one of my good friends in this group admitted recently that her husband isn’t keen on her going out with me for drinks any more, as apparently I’ll “be on the pull”.
