Social Groups and Marriage
What crowd will you go with after your marriage?
Are you from the same or different social crowds? If both of you are from the same social crowd, you should have little difficulty at this point after your marriage. You may just keep going around with the same crowd, or the married set which has come mainly out of the old crowd.
If you move to another city where neither of you has friends, your problem can be relatively simple. Just establish yourselves as a couple with some crowd you both like. Problems arise when each has been running around with a different crowd to which they have become attached, and after marriage they remain in the same town.
For example, consider Jim and Mary. Mary’s crowd is decidedly the “sporty” type. They swim, sail, play considerable tennis and golf. Their conversations center about horse-racing, ball games, and tournaments. Jim’s group is more the “artistic-intellectual” type. They are interested in novels, plays, paintings, and discuss international and social problems with considerable zeal.
We may well ask why Jim and Mary became interested in each other in the first place. Perhaps each wanted somewhat more variety than he was getting. In any case, here they are, about to marry. They will continue to live in the same town. With which crowd shall they establish their common social life?
