Hiya
I am painfully shy and as a consequence I don't have one single person I can call a friend.
The only people I have are my family.
I feel awful for my 7 year old ds who is an only.
Due to me having no friends with children of his age he doesn't get any interaction with children of his own age all of his cousins are grown up.
It has always been just me and my ds and if I do take him anywhere like softplay, holiday activities etc I feel as though we are the odd ones out as everyone else is with another mom and their children.
There has been so many things I have wanted to take my ds to but I have not had the courage to go for being on my own.
My son goes through the whole of the 6 weeks school holiday without seeing another child.
My ds has plenty of friends at school and I have arranged playdates after school and he seems quite popular.
Of late he never seems interested is going anywhere with me when he isn't at school which may involve him mixing with other children that he doesn't know.
I am starting to feel very down about it and wonder if it is always going to be like this.
I would hate for my ds to turn out like me.
Is anybody else in a similar situation.
