Problem with goup of "friends"

[FTF]

Hello everyone I am new and this is my first post. From the outside it looks like I have the perfect life. My DH is a successful lawyer. Between us we have a lovely child. As I said this all seems perfect but my problem is a group of so called "friends". They are really bitchy and always going on about how much their husbands earn (I never mention my DH's earnings) and how much their watches costs. I find talking to them very difficult at times and this morning I just couldn't communicate with them at all. I know you will all say "dump them" but the problem is that I sometimes get bored during the day and have no one else to talk to.

What else can I do to pass the time of day?

You could try talking to the maids? They can sometimes provide meaningful conversation, though admittedly not often.

You need to go out for lunch, get yourself a nanny for Oliver and organise some pamper days for yourself.

Latin isnt the way forward, you need mandarin these days to impress.

"Vacca foeda".....

No deffo worms. Pinkish and feebly moving. I wanted to at least put them back on the grass but found I was unexpectedly squeamish. Pore ol worms.

Why not start a nice little affair with the pool boy?

Are you serious about the wormery? I spend a considerable amount of money on mancures and I am not amount to start getting "soil" all over the hands. We have a gardener for that sort of thing.

Ilovemyteddies - our son's name is OLIVER, not Ollie!!!!!!!!!!!

How much does it cost to cure a man?

maybe you should invite the gardener in for coffee?

that could liven things up a bit

TBH I think you should just have an affair. That would solve your boredom.

Dibber, seed, trough, etc

Lol.

So the women who talks watches are boring, the ones that talk children are boring.

Perhaps the problem is you. Boring people get bored.

I can't wait til imaginary Oliver starts school and the teachers insist on giving attention to other children as well.

I will wait in aibu for those.

What with Brazil coming to the fore, how about Portuguese? Might meet someone interesting who does touch soil.

I have a sort of wormery, a section of the back garden chock full of red wigglers Eisenia foetida. They have spread though, so now they're everywhere. But if you let the chickens out, they'll sort em.

You can get them from Uncle Jim's Worm farm!

I'm surprised at you Hully, I thought you would be more resourceful.
Don't you carry a handy, collapsible tupperware pot for such eventualities?

My friend breeds worms: Malawian Blues

I will from now on BBB

In fact, OP, there's a little idea for you, design a worm pot and market it.

Mutny Oliver will have a governess, surely?

mutny - Oliver is going to a very good school which will have small class sizes so he will get plenty of attention thank you. No doubt far more than your child gets in his state school with about 50 children per class!!!!!!!

Oh, no wonder your friends are not communicating well with you. Tennis?

That is SO 80s, darling.

Tai Chi classes would help, then they would accept you more readily.

Come now OP you can do better than that.

You sound really stressed out and discontented OP. Perhaps a short break away would do you good. Or take up a hobby. Maybe horology. Then you would have something to talk to your friends about.

Are you near London OP?
You should come to the Christmas meet-up.

This thread is hilarious! Wormeries snort

yeah she can buy the drinks

arf at horology
