Village

How did you find your village? I’m having such a hard time making true friends. People keep using me or they pretend they are my friend but are so fake. Starting to wonder if I am the problem.

I bet it’s NOT you! I still haven’t found mine. When I moved away from home I found some great friends, but then they moved out of state. Finding true, supportive friends has been a struggle for me for the last few years especially since having my daughter. As people get older they just seem to do their thing. I’ve always had my village of girls and relied on them more than family or significant others, so it’s really hard to not have that. I totally understand how you feel. Sometimes you just have to get a sense early on if the people who claim to be your friend are truly interested in your well being and aren’t being selfish. Ditch the selfish ones before you get too invested

My husband and kids are my village. We moved away from home, only an hour, but literally no one makes an effort to come see us. Unless I go to them, I won’t see them. And it is so hard to make friends when your older. People already have their click, or they just suck lol. So I stick with my perfect little family 😊

Has anyone else had issues with their friends that aren't pregnant or have kids?

I have a friend at work and we've become really close over the years. But ever since I become pregnant she just doesn't understand anything I'm going through which is fine except for the fact that the past few days I have been exhausted physically and socially. We have been helping another friend out for about a month now and we've had to keep him entertained as he's going through a rough time right now and it's drained me socially . my friend at work is frustrated because I'm not talking a lot and I'm exhausted and she doesn't understand why and I'm just curious if anybody else has had issues with friends that are not going to the same thing or have gone through the same thing as you connecting with you because she's literally mad at me. She stopped talking to me at work today and I just don't understand what to do.

31 weeks pregnant and lonely

How to deal with loneliness in pregnancy when your boyfriend goes out with his friends drinking 😅🥲 I only have three friends, two are never really free and one lives back in Liverpool and has her own set of friends where she goes to raves and goes on holiday with them lol. My boyfriend is going out soon for the night as it’s sunny and I’ll just be sat here crying like every single time! When does it stop 🤣
