I moved to a new town some years back and was fortunate enough to get to know some really lovely women who became good friends and our dh's and dc's too (I have preschool dc's and one due to start school) but in the last few years they have all moved pretty far away due to work, life changes etc and now, even though I know lots of people, I don't have any really good, close friends and I really miss that. I think I'm a pretty friendly sort of person, I love to socialise, I love having people round etc but so many people I meet seem so cold...
Don't get me wrong, I know friendships take time to develop and I'm not rushing in with a 'be my friend now' kind of approach but it just seems even difficult to find friendly, nice people who want new friends/to get to know new people!
Am I the only one out there feeling like this? Do any of you want to meet and make some close friends that you can confide in, trust, be there for, meet for coffee, have a laugh, go out on the town and get together with your husband/partner and kids?
Why does it seem so hard to make new friends?
If you are in Northants and feel the same as me, give me a shout!
