I’m a 37-year-old woman, happily married with two young children, balancing a full-time corporate job. While my husband enjoys his close-knit group of friends, I prefer keeping to myself. Occasionally, the wives organize ladies’ nights out, but I find it challenging to connect with them due to differing interests. One of them reaches out on WhatsApp, but I cringe every time I see her name appear on my phone because of her tendency to vent about her problems, especially when I’m content with my life. How can I navigate this situation without feeling overwhelmed or insensitive?
