My mom told me pretty much the same thing the other night. I was
> upset at how alot of my so called friends (most married, some
> single) don't have anything to do with me anymore. They don't call
> or come over and most of them don't even answer my emails. My mom
> suggested that they might feel threatened by the fact that I am
> single now and worried that I might steal their husbands. Which is
> completely ridiculous seeing that it has only been six weeks since
> my husband died. What kind of a woman do they think I am if I could
> just start man hopping right away??? I have never even given them
> the slightest implication that I was easy so it hurts my feelings
> that this might be the case. Or maybe they think what happened to me
