There are a variety of reasons for women to suddenly find themselves a bit short of friends. Maybe you have relocated from another region or country. You’ve been a full time mum and suddenly they don’t need you so much or they have grown up taking your access to new people (school gate, PTA…) with them. Your best friend moved away.
