How true; and how sad that is! I have heard that before about Wallis Warfield Simpson; she had great woman friends....and was very loyal to them; and helpful and supportive. I don't know if it was during "her time"; or if women in general are rarely "affectionate and loving " to their friends.
I certainly am blessed with many. Is it the times? I don't know. I just do know I am blessed.
When she and Edward were banned from England......she needed those friends.
I really think she was that way about her women friends from the get-go! She would never have predicted her path in life. And I am sure she survived well with those friends.....(women) Any of us who would have survived our lives without our women friends? Not me!!!
Penelope, Partly her era I think. As I read through different memoirs-though I do think it must have been so with WW. I have several and like you cherish them.
