I havent posted on here for ages but I'm just trying to find some advice.
I am in my late 20's with a 2.5yo DD and I work 3 days a week. I feel really lonely and like I dont belong to anything. I have freinds at work but they are stricty work freinds and anything we do together involves a lot of drinking which I am trying to step away from. I have my oldest freinds but we all have lives and kids and we dont see each other all that often. I have my partner who is great but we dont really have anything in common or something we both love that we can do together (expect for DD obviously)
I suppose what I'm trying to say is that I just want to be part of a community of like minded people. Some kind of group or something.
I've looked at churches but I feel to young (? Feel free to tell me if I'm being silly here), I would love to do yoga or pilates classes but I just feel so stupid going on my own. My confidence is so low. What if people think I'm just stupid? Or dont like me? Or dont think I should be there.
I'm sorry if I'm rambling. I just feel like I'm missing out on a fulfilling life because I have zero confidence when it comes to social situations like that. Walking in to somewhere when I know nobody scares me to death.
I just want to feel like I belong to something and feel a sense of community that isnt family or work. Does that make any sense at all?
