Fitting in

Hey, sorry you feel this way. I think it’s most likely to be down to your mum causing the root of your problem so it might be best to speak to a councillor to help you cope. It could just be that you’ve not met your people yet. I would say I’m fairly sociable but then there’s people I meet in life that just aren’t my people. I don’t wish them any harm but I don’t wish them being near me too lol. But then I have my people who I would go out my way to spend time with. I go to toddler classes and have a wee group that I do things with outside of class but there’s people there that we just have nothing in common with other than having a child a similar age. So it’s not just you x

Yes I feel the same Iv always felt like an outsider ,even now with the mums Some ppl "get you" And some don't unfortunately that's life But iv found two awsome friends off this site

No family issues here but I feel the exact same. I try so hard to fit somewhere, I thought becoming a mother and all that it would change but I still don’t fit in.

I think a lot of people feel this way, me included.

Thank you for your comments. I thought I had met my people with the school mums. I finally felt like I belonged with them, I invited them to my 30th party yet they go on nights out and I'm the only one that's not invited 😔 it just brings back the feeling of not belonging again

😭😭 stay strong I promise ur kids look up to you girl and that’s what gotta keep you moving 🫶🏽🫶🏽 I moved around a lot and a child of SA Always feel a in to be open but guarded

Forget about the idea of fitting in and do what makes you happy . Explore your hobbies and interest . If you meet nice people along the way great . If you don’t you’ve used your time productively . Can’t force people to like you . Your responsible for creating your own happiness

Yes I’m where you are right now feel free to drop me a message x

Omg, I've literally been crying for the past 30 minutes for the similar reasons. My parents are no longer in my life (still hurts), no siblings or cousins, my husbands family don't include me as family. Im pregnant, so I'm just emotional. I find myself easy going, I never quite understand it either. It's really hard.

@MimiGigi I'm sorry to hear you're in a similar situation. It's soul destroying when you just want to be accepted or liked 😔 I think the abandonment from my mum makes me want to fit in more as I don't have anyone to vent to on the hard days or confide in or even just have a friend
