I'm just over the border from WhatIsInTheBag and EggFlip.

The pool of available friend' talent' is small here but once you find someone, they know someone else, etc. It all becomes easier.

You don't have to be best friends with people who had kids at the same time as you but it is often easier for a few years to spend some time with them.

Its weird i was thinking about this just recently and have 2 actual friends i still see. Most have been school friends that have dropped off along the way, i went a good 6/7 years without a single friend then started a night school course and thats were i met my 2 mates who i still see regularly.

Thing is though theyre both preoccupied with other things and id love someone i can call up and say get your coat were off the pub! i have a 5 month old ds so not always practical but if i knew someone i could do this to when i actually had a bloody second to myself, id be happy Smile

I have no friends either, when I had a horse I had loads of friends and we used to see each other every day at the stables. Since I sold my horse literally not one of them has bothered with me. This morning I got quite upset that I had arranged to meet up with one girl and she text me to say she couldn't make it because she was meeting up with friends :( We used to be really close.

I live in East Sussex

BeyondTheLimitsOfAcceptability · 28/11/2012 21:29

MoomieAndFreddie · 28/11/2012 21:29

Raerae12 · 28/11/2012 21:34

Hi Moomie,
