Chapter One
From the opening pages
This isn’t about one day. It’s about the quiet, ongoing comparison to friends whose marriages lasted — the one that shows up at dinner parties and ordinary weekends, and doesn’t announce itself as grief.
The comparison isn’t actually fair. You’re comparing your fully-known difficulty to their entirely unknown reality. This short book covers that, along with friends who don’t know what to say, envy without resentment, and building belonging beyond couple-structured friendships.
