Not to be arsed with fake Mummy friends anymore?

In the last 6 months, I've dropped my ante natal group (DS is nearly 5 and I still don't feel comfortable in their company) and a group of local-ish women I first met online.

I'm not boasting about this - in fact, I worry what kind of an anti social, unfriended outcast I've turned into and what effect it will have on my children's social standing - but I just can't DO it anymore. I can't be arsed with the inane chatter and fakery.

DS is starting school soon, so in a way I'm looking to that, but - pah - I just don't think I do it very well at all. I can't offer the commitment and plasticity required.

BTW, these are not terrible people: they have been very good to me at times (and vice versa). I just don't think we really like each other that much

Didn't know where to put this. Would appreciate other's POV, though, not least because no one else is talking to me anymore ...

luluf @ "I suffered with fake friends with my first baby (sounds like an affliction)"

This is a support group for your affliction

I can't agree with you more! perhaps it's the grumpy old woman syndrome, or the faliure to find gym and moaning about husbands sufficiently engaging.
