Moms wanting other mom friends?

I’ve been going to the park and “mommy and me” classes in order to meet other moms and just widen my circle of friends. I’m sure that I am a nice person and despite being an introvert (that’s the scientist in me), I do try my best to strike up conversations with other parents. But I find it weird that no one at these “mommy and me” classes are interested in making friends or are friendly. Does anybody else have this experience? Being a mom is so hard as it is and can be isolating but it amazes me that so many mamas go to these classes to find friends and allies but don’t give you the time of day :( I feel like I’m in high school all over again…

I’m finally experiencing how isolating being a mom can be and really struggling with it!! My son is 5.5 months and none of my other local close friends have kids so I’m really needing some mom friends. So I’m definitely up for hang outs 😊

Mom groups are the worst. I've gone to several and just felt like an outsider. I'm not sure if it's just because of the way I look or I just give off an off vibe, I haven't made any friends at mom groups, so I stopped going. My oldest is 12 and my youngest is 3 so it's been hard for 12 years 😅 still have no friends really, just people i chat with from time to time

It's strange, isn't it? It seems like I can't even get a fellow mom to reciprocate a smile at the library or park. What part of Denver you in? (I'm just assuming near Golden?) I'm a bit south of the metro area now but don't mind a slight drive for good friendship.

Yes! Always been hard! I found my best friends on this app and never at mom groups. I miss them as they are in a different state. Have also had the worst luck here in Colorado meeting people. It’s hard making friends in your 30s as everyone has established friend groups.

If your partner got a prostitute pregnant and then abandoned the child/ran away, what would be your response? Read…

So you were not in a relationship at the time or were about to be in a relationship, he gets the prostitute pregnant.
It’s her fault for not taking their morning after pill.
He tells her straight up that he’s not going to be involved and that she should terminate it.
She says that she won’t terminate and she hopes that he does stick around

So she deliberately gets pregnant, basically traps him

What would be your reaction?
he’s response is:
“She trapped me and it’s her fault for not taking the pill”

Sex life is 🫠

Im a little desperate already . Im not a huge fan on blowjobs but I’m doing it because I know he likes it . If he wants it in a car, during work meeting , on the balcony, on the beach everywhere I’m okay to do that . However, I’m not getting anything in return. I mean the last time he went down was more than 1.5 years ago . Okay, I was pregnant maybe he did not feel like doing it while I had a belly as he told me . , but I’m not pregnant already for awhile and I’m always telling him that I want him to go down and he is always having an excuse like “tomorrow “ etc . At the beginning it was funny and I was like okayyy but now it’s not as I’m not enjoying our sex in general . Like the process itself does not make me finish . As I’m breastfeeding and super dry down there and I’m always telling him to put lubricant as it’s hurting me . And sometimes it feels like I am begging for that as he is more comfortable without it , but damn IM NOT OKAY without it . So basically I do not remember when was the last time I have finished during sex . I understand that now with a baby it’s hard to fully enjoy it and have enough time for everything. But still . Just kiss me and put your dick inside me does not seems sexy . To be honest I understand why in marriage women does not want to have sex . Like I feel like it’s already work that I have to do not a pleasure. I’ve been telling him that but as I can see no changes applied 🫠
