WHAT IS TOO MUCH FOR A MIDLIFE FRIEND TO ASK ?

WELCOME TO MIDLIFE MEMOS
THE SWAMP GODDESS® GUIDE TO MENOPAUSAL MAYHEM AND AGING ANGST
BLOG #84 by Wendy Kyman, Ph.D
WHAT IS TOO MUCH FOR A MIDLIFE FRIEND TO ASK?

Is there such a thing as too much?
Is there ever a time when enough is enough?

What is too much for a friend to ask of you?

Under what circumstances will you tell a friend enough is enough because
she has asked too much?
Do you exempt any friends from your too much or enough is enough policy?
Since the double milestone of menopausal mayhem and aging angst,
have you changed what is enough?

FOOD FOR THOUGHT
The double milestone is the perfect time to pose, ponder and, when ready, answer
questions. This process enhances insight.

UNHOMEWORK
Here are potentially uncomfortable, but important questions:
Are friends actually asking too much, or is it that you are limited in
what you are able to give? Be specific.
Are friends actually asking too much, or is it that your are limited in
what you are willing to give? Be specific.
