I feel really low as I can't make friends and I am getting really down about it. I have a DS (3) and I am 37.

I feel I am being friendly to people but they don't like me. I arranged with 2 people to meet over the half term and they said they'd ring me but they haven't.

It always is me who is making the calls. I feel really close to despair at times. I just wish I had a friend.

I invited another person over and suggested some dates - she said she wanted to meet up and said to give some dates. This was 3 weeks ago and she's not been in touch again. I don't know what I am doing wrong.

In the past 2 years I have tried so hard to get to make friends but I am still lonely and no friends. I really feel there is something wrong with me.

I invited one Mum with her DD to a playdate, she then 4 months later invited me to her house with other Mums she knows. I seem to be on the edge of things all the time.

I don't know what you can say reading this, I guess I just want to know if I am the only person like this. I so hope I am not. I just want to know too, how to make friends - can anyone help.

Thank you.

not sure where we would go-stockport isn't exactly a hotbed of nightime activity!

alexsmum · 20/02/2006 00:59

or we could do a daytime thing with the babies?

Hi there
Yes let's do a meet...
my DS is 3.
That play centre in Macc sounds good.
Mons or Fridays or weekends are best for me, as I work Tu- Thur.
Look forward to seeing you all!
