Feeling lonely

My little girl is 2 now and i don’t feel like I’ve got many friends at all. I’ve made two mum friends who are nice but the only thing I have in common is that we have children the same age. My old mates have lost touch. Feel like I haven’t met my gang and I also find it really hard to mate friends. Anyone else feel the same?

Could have written this myself. I'm not always the best in social situations either, so my little boy goes to multiple groups and mixes well with the kids, but I feel like a lemon trying to talk to the other mums 🤣

Totally relate to this. I've not really made any mum friends that stuck. I made some initially, but like you say, the only thing we had in common was our children, so it fizzled off when they returned to work.

I’m the same. I am from India & moved here after my wedding in 2019 so all my friends were back home. Then Covid happened & I couldn’t work or anything to meet anyone. & now with an almost 2 year old I have no one except my husband & his family. It does get a lot lonely at times x

It’s not that easy to make new friends at groups because a lot of the mums already know each other. Where are you located?

Feel exactly the same. The loneliness feels all consuming sometimes

Literally same moved to new area first time mum and not back to work yet
