I've only just seen this thread, I'm in Preston too! I would really love a brew or a meetup in the NW if anyone is up for it??

BeingCrazyKeepsMeSain · 29/11/2012 09:06

So, just saw this thread. I was going to write the same thing as my first post yesterday OP, but changed my mind as I thought I would be the only one.

OH and DM are my only friends. DD 13 months is great company too, but I have no real friends. My DSis used to be my best friend, but then she Made knew friends and left me on my own.

I often wonder who will be at my wedding, I wouldn't even have a MOH much less for bridesmaids! I live in London... Anyone want to be my friend :(

Oh and i make great cakes :)

The local mumsnet bits have a buddy bench.

TantrumsAndBalloons · 29/11/2012 09:11

I'm in north London.

BornInACrossFireHurricane · 29/11/2012 09:11

I'm in the midlands isatrap Smile

It is difficult- I lost a couple of close friends after university and then from moving.

BettySwollocksandaCrustyRack · 29/11/2012 09:19

Oh Tickle :(

I'll be your Essex friend :)

DinosaursOnAnAdventCalender · 29/11/2012 09:19

I have no friends and no dp either. My best friend is my 17 month old.

I have stupid nightmares sometimes that I have an accident or die in the house and no one finds my poor little boy as there is no one to realise I'm dead Blush

Hamnvik · 29/11/2012 09:21

Anyone in Scotland? I've moved around a lot so don't see my friends as much as I'd like!

I have no friends either Sad
I wanted to post a thread about it but chicken out.
I am from East Sussex.

TallulahTinsel · 29/11/2012 10:41

I am near Preston too!! Going to have a look at Mumsnet Local, last time I looked there was no one there Grin

tipsycat · 29/11/2012 10:53

I'm going to try that too. I think there's a Preston one.

cheekybaubles · 29/11/2012 11:23

Midlands too, although midlands is quite a large territory. :)

Annianni · 29/11/2012 11:54

I'm in Preston too (40 yr old sahm)

Although i'm in southport at the moment, having a hot chocolate near the prom while Ds2 (20 months) has a nap.

Then we're going to the botanic gardens to feed the ducks and swans.

firemansamisnormansdad · 29/11/2012 12:14

A lot of familiar scenarios here. And do you know what makes it worse? All those bloody Christmas adverts with party food, party dresses, party shoes - as if we've got anywhere to dress up to go to? I have lots of acquaintance friends, but only one I could really count on in an emergency.

Any one in North/East Yorkshire?

Cezella · 29/11/2012 12:21

Just thought I'd put a different slant on it. Try and be
More positive about your situations because some people would give their back teeth to be in your positions. I personally would love to have a DD or a DS or even just an OH. I know it might be hard to not have many friends but it's just as hard to not have any children or a partner when you really want them.

Also, sometimes friends aren't all they cracked up to be, they cause stress and grief as well as happiness and fun (but I guess that goes for children and partners too)

I'm going to run and hide now, after all this is mumsnet so strictly speaking, I don't have a right to post this!

Just something worth remembering when you're feeling friendless Grin

ChaoticforlifenotjustChristmas · 29/11/2012 12:53

I'm in the northwest, near Liverpool.

Most of my friends are scattered around the UK, so I rarely see them especially as I seem to be permanently broke atm.

buttercrumble · 29/11/2012 12:56

Same here , im in scarborough if anybody needs a new friend pm me.....

CurlsRUs · 29/11/2012 13:04

Anyone in north Somerset?

I've moved around the country a few times, leaving friends behind each time, and it's getting harder and harder to make new ones.

elliebellys · 29/11/2012 13:06
