Hi All, I need to make Friends. We moved to Cardiff when my son was 6 months old. All my friends are in London and at first they came to visit. We have a guest room for them to stay in. However since the pandemic visits have been limited. I went back to London for 4 days and tbh none of them really made the effort to see me. My best friend was happy to go for a drink as long as we went to a pub near her. We had dinner the night before and she was saying the pubs in her area are awful so i didnt really want to travel back there for a night drinking in a quiet pub. She is single and im always inviting her down my husband can watch the kids while we go for drinks (hopefully she could meet someone) but it never happens. We still talk all the time but im becoming a bit resentful. If she was married with kids (My son is her Godson) and i was single i would make so much effort to see her. I work in an office with older women and they mostly have their own friends anyway. Im on annual leave this week and its just me and my son. We have no where to go. No one to see its so depressing. Im thinking is this it? Now im a parent i have no life but work and looking after my son (who i absolutely adore) but im more than this ! Im literally just waiting to die. I know that sounds dramatic but i can't carry on like this. We can't move back to London as the house prices are ridiculous and my husband doesn't want us to have a mortgage.
