Making new friends after having a family

[puddingandsun]

How did you meet your newest friends? And how long ago was that? How much time do you get to spend together?

I haven't made a real friend since 2009 and only have been losing friends in the last couple of years since having a baby, moving away, covid, etc.

Maybe you can find some on here 🙂

In the last year - church and volunteering at a festival. I’m beginning to make friends with some people at yoga but I’d say we aren’t at friendship stage yet.

I often get the “do they really want to hang out with me” voice but I remind myself I’m an adult and so are they - we both have a say in it and I need to get over myself!! This usually works.

DH is very friendly and we have people over for dinner most weeks and see friends 3-4times a week. I think this helps as people then introduce us to people they think we’d like.
