LOOKIN' FOR BUDDIES

Hey moms! 👋
📍 Glencoe, ontario, Canada 🇨🇦

Figured I'd throw myself out there because making friends as an adult is somehow harder than convincing a toddler to wear pants. 😂

I'm a stay at home mom with a couple of little ones, a house full of pets, and a love for gardening, baking, being outside, and finding new adventures. I'm pretty laid back and enjoy the occasional smoke or drink after the kids are settled.

My parenting style is a little old school. I love muddy boots, climbing trees, helping in the kitchen, and getting outside. But I'm also realistic. If my kid needs some tablet time so I can drink my coffee while it's still hot or catch my breath, there won't be any guilt or judgment here.

I'm hoping to meet moms who are kind, honest, easygoing, and looking for a real friendship. Let's go to the park, explore hiking trails, hit up farmers' markets, have backyard bonfires, plan playdates, or even sneak away for a kid-free coffee or girls' night once in a while.

If this sounds like your kind of friendship, send me a message! Life's a lot more fun when you've got your village. 🌿🐾🤍

Is this cheating?

Me and my partner have been together for 12 years, he has been on websites to meet men in the past and I have found out etc. He swore he will never do it again, but i just had an feeling he was as we haven't been having much sex due to me struggling with my MH and our life is just a bit all over the place atm. Last time he said he just like to talk and have a bit of fun, but he has confirmed he has met men before for BJ's. So I haven't yet confronted him this time round as I have only seen the profile and nothing on it. But is this classed as cheating as its same sex but he swears he is not gay?

The one that got away

This is just for fun and my curiosity🥴 Everyone has "the one that got away". Yall know what I'm talking about. That person who you still think about and maybe even still love but you're probably never going to see again. Maybe your current partner or maybe not. Tell me about them in the comments. I want the tea! I'll start!

Broke up: almost 2 years ago
Together for: 2 months
How we met: sugar daddy website🥴
Fell in love in: 2 weeks
How it ended: he disappeared for 3 days because he was "too busy" and then came back on and off for weeks at a time
Still love them?: no
What had you hooked?: everything about him but especially the sex
Who's fault was the break up?: his
Last time you talked to them: 5 days ago
Would you go back if you were single: yes but only for sex not a relationship
Do you miss them still?: sometimes
Are you happy in your current relationship?: yes
If you could go back and change something to be with them, would you?: maybe
Does they look like your current partner?: nope
Do you hope they're doing well or suffering?: I hope he's suffering and regrets losing me but I hope he's doing well for the sake of his son
Were they your worst heartbreak?: yes

Sex toys

Okay I’m in a relationship but we don’t have sex as often as I want. (literally like once every 2 months lately) I want to get a toy so bad (preferably a dildo) would I be wrong to use it when he isn’t around?

Might As Well

Hey, yall. I’m 30 with a 5 year old and 4 month old. Currently married and working full-time. Looking for friends who aren’t expecting too much out of me with what life is currently throwing at me 😅 I’d love to connect and have mom friends to talk to throughout the day and keep me sane. I need some people to laugh and cry with on this motherhood journey. I’m a little weird and super awkward, but I’m super understanding ☺️

Looking for mom friends

Hi, I’m 23 years old mama of 2 boys and I’m looking for some mamas to talk, I love doing crafts, going for walks with my boys, reading, cooking and baking. Lately I have been feeling like all I do is work and come home with no social life.

25 year old mom to a 4 year old boy. Looking for more friends to text/ connect with throughout the day. TMI is never a thing. If you’re into reading, trying new hobbies, true crime, foodie activities and just random convo, we will get along 💕
