hi Eljean, in my case I have some British Girlfriends in here whom Ive met from work. We do get along very well, we used to chat about our diffent cultures. beliefs and most of all Foods.. They are married as well so sometimes we do compare notes and the attitude I like with them is they are not PLASTIC, they will tell you if there's something wrong or if uve offended them but after that its another chapter. They dont go and on and on and on about it again. But I dont tell them everything, my hubby is still my bestfriend.
