Hi
Not sure this is the right place to post this.
I’m a SAHM, my hubby works, fairly long hours but we see him frequently and he’s great with the children and work helping with the house etc - weekends are great we are usually out as a family.
We live abroad, and generally love our lifestyle - but now the children are all at school, I feel lost.
I’m still learning the language, so not really ready to consider work.
Friends wise is where I am really stuck. I connected with some other expat mums earlier in the year, and we met up a lot with the younger children, and all got on well. Obviously then lockdown happened, and we have been on small group meet ups ever since - so not been many chances to meet as parks etc are still closed.
However, I noticed on social media this week, that a few of the mums had been out for drinks one evening, and planned to go again next week - we have a group on FB and are all FB friends yet no one asked me if was interested in going along! I feel so gutted, and unwanted. Keep thinking there must be something terribly wrong with me as I just feel like I’ve been completely forgotten about!
I actually don’t have anyone here I can call a friend, and I don’t know how to go about finding any - as the mums I met don’t appear to be interested!
What to other SAHP do to connect with other adults when you don’t work? How do you make friends as a grown up - especially if you’ve moved away.
Sorry, just feeling a bit sorry for myself at the moment!!
