So many of us as military spouses struggle to make meaningful connections. I’m not just talking about surface small talk with neighbors, or at the spouse coffee, or with our kids’ friends’ parents. I’m talking about meaningful connections and true friendships, which is what most of us truly want.
We want to be seen, known, and understood; and we want to know others. But sometimes that can feel really hard to do, especially if we move a lot. Yes, there is absolutely value in developing relationships online, but sometimes you just want to have a friend that you can see physically or have someone you feel like you can call to come help when your spouse is gone and you have a sick kid and no way to get groceries. Building new relationships can be hard in general…and probably even harder if you view yourself as an introvert.
But this episode is not about how to get over introversion or put yourself out there in a sea of strangers. We’re going to talk an important aspect of developing connection and friendship that isn’t often talked about. In fact, it’s one that may make extroverts squirm even more than introverts. What is it? You’ll have to listen to find out!
Better Together,
Christine
