Honest

Nobody tells you how lonely it is when you become a mom, all the friends I did have are all now living their 20’s partying and drinking while I’m at home with my kids. Don’t get me wrong I love the life I choose it’s just sometimes I wish I had another girl to call and talk about things with yea it’s not gonna be about boys or drama more like my daughter jumped off a table and I’m going crazy. I miss girl dates and going out and being me, my fiancée is 100% there but I’m tired of only having him to talk to all the time. I miss having friends.

I know how you feel being the first one to have a baby is hard because I’m still friends with them and we keep in contact but I also feel like we don’t have anything to talk about because my life is now centred around the kids and they don’t always understand that

I completely get it but if you ever want to talk we can do a phone call or FaceTime , and then maybe start a mom venting group chat/ FaceTime/phone call

I totally feel this, especially having a military husband I am living away from my closest friends and feel lonely pretty often

A couple of my high school friends have kids but they are closer to each other and I feel more distance from them especially since I went to college in another state and we don’t keep much contact but we do check in just not often So I feel pretty alone in this journey and the friends I feel closer to are in serval different states and are childless

Call them out sometimes, join them sometimes. I mean as mums w lils we can’t do it more often, but like once a month or something get out there let your hair down a lil, have a drink or 2, get dressed up. I’m in the opposite position where my friends are now all divorced/separated, I’m the only one married out of a group of 5 gfs, and so they are single, but coparenting and we go out at night fortnightly when the BD have the kids, it’s fun. We’re all mums, having a great time. You can still hang w them sometimes I don’t see why not.

Ik exactly what u mean. I haven’t really had friends since college they all went separate ways when I finished. I had some friends at groups I went to but I had to stop going because I was pregnant. I feel really alone.

I'm definitely down for a phone call or text! Reach out! ♥️

That was me 10 years ago. I had a few friends, even if they didn't have kids or ended up having one years later. I haven't talked to any of them for years. The subscription ends eventually. Sometimes, it's time to move on and try something new

This !!! I say the same thing

I know you’re far away but I wouldn’t mind FaceTime or messaging if you ever need to vent. I only have one girl friend and I see her maybe once a year and we barely talk, tbh it feels like my only friend is my sister since she’s a sahm and I’m a stay at home pregnant lady😅 and my partner ofc but he’s busy working or doing stuff
