let down by friends

[mndg]

I am 25 with 2 young boys. What gets me down is that my so called best friends never ring me or get in touch. I would never hear from them if I didnt make the effort to get in touch with them. I am getting married and they are my bridesmaids too. should i be letting this get me down? are they really good friends? has anyone else had this problem, and felt completley let down by their frinds??

Do they have children? I found that friends got vague when I had my ds because suddenly I couldn't head off on holiday or a wine bar at a moment's notice. Plus they found that I wouldn't get drunk if they come to me because I need to be sober to deal with any crises arising.

If so, I think you'll probably make new friends until they follow you into motherhood.

I completely agree with Kathyjelly!

My "non mum" friends (with a few shining exceptions) have completely lost interest since I had my little boy.

Everything seems to change when you've had a child, some for the better, some for the worse. The trick is to embrace it and have fun.
