dividing time

[Gumleaf]

as you all know, probably by the amount of time i talk about her, that i love my girlfriend and we spend a lot of time together. but the thing is, by spending so much time with joanne, i feel that i may be neglecting my other friends. this wasn't an issue with my ex girlfriend, because we didn't see eachother all the time like jo and i do now. i know its a bit of a juggling act with a girlfriend and other friends, but how do you know when you have spent or are spending too much time with one or the other? i mean, could i be unknowingly be ruining friendships by being with jo too much?

Age old question! Not surprisingly, other friends don't get as much time now that you're sweet on Jo.

One way to know is when your friends start telling you (usually in a not so nice way). The other way is to just sorta know when you're spending the time you used to spend with them, but with her instead.

Friends come to expect to play second fiddle to the g/f, but they also still like you and want to spend spme time with you. And, I suppose, you with them. You might try to make a mental note of how much 'other friend time' you're spending with Jo, and if not give them equal time, at least make the time to be with them.
