Sinse becoming a mum two years ago I have never felt so lonely!
I am 22, my friends are just interested in going out and I can't as my priorities have changed, I don't want to spend money on boozy nights out, I always want to come back early and I dont want hangovers the next day when I have a child to care for. Occationally I do have the odd night out and never really enjoy it like I did when I was care free and single.
I ask my friends round for drinks at my place, chinese food, a film etc but they always make excuses up or cancel last minute...They are just not interested unless its about going out on the town, getting stupidly drunk. It wouldn't be so bad if taxis didn't cost an absolute fortune round here, I would rather keep the money in the bank!
The worse part about it is my partner has a group of loyal friends he sees all the time. Hes currently at his local thursday night pub quiz and im sat here like a plum bored as usual. Hes having a boys night in on saturday at one of the guys house, a pre-bonfire night in...And where will i be? Stuck in on my own watching x factor, when all I want to do is ring up my friends and for them to come round for a giggle :(
My boyfriend sees his friends about three to four times a week and I hate that I have to be left stuck in. Its not his fault my friends are being awkward and that he has real friends but it doesn't make me feel any better.
I go to mother and toddler group and have met some lovely people, a bit older than me but it doesn't bother me, I will need to arrange a girly night in with them one night...My partner says he is made to feel guilty for seeing his friends as he always texts me to ask if im having fun while hes out with them and i always reply no! well what does he expect!?
