I literally feel so sad this evening.
I’ve realised I’ve no group of friends and I’ve no idea how it’s happened.
I’m in my 40’s with two primary school aged kids. I feel like I’m out the other side is sleepless nights and the kids are more independent.
My husband who I adore, works really long hours and can be away a lot. Or spends the evening tapping away on his laptop.
We live near my husbands family but never ask them to babysit.
But I’ve no friends, I’ve other mums I see and we help each other out with lifts to kids clubs etc but that’s about it.
My husband freely admits he’s anti-social and would rather stay at home but I’m not or never used to be. We never have people over unless it’s family, hardly go out because even tho we could ask any of the in-laws we just don’t.
Tonight I’ve literally looked at weekend breaks away for one person.
Is this a stage of life? I didn’t see it coming … how do you make friends when everyone seems to have a group 😞
