Can we be friends?

Hey mamas! I understand we all have busy life’s but I’m kind of bored of messaging people on here and they don’t get back to me or don’t want to carry on a conversation. So I’m looking for genuine women who want to consider becoming real friends.

So here’s a bit about me to break the ice! 🧊

My name is Keeley I’m 24 and live just outside of Maidstone, Kent, soon to be moving to Sevenoaks. I’m a first time mum to my little girl Frances who was born in November 2023. I’m currently a full time mum but when I can I want to get my HGV license and become a lorry driver! Me and my boyfriend decided to get a working cocker spaniel puppy just 2 months before I was due to have my baby! 🫣 but it was the best decision we made, they are the bestest friends 🥰 I sadly lost my mum to cancer in May 2022. I’ve been dealing with depression, anxiety and PTSD for many years now which I am very open about. I believe I have adhd and autism but I’m still waiting to be tested 😑 I love going on walks in all weather and have a cheeky 🍁 occasionally. Quite a big car enthusiast 🚗 I’ve struggled to hold a friendship ever since being in school because of my mental health as everyone I come across don’t understand me. I don’t judge people before I get to know them I’m very kind hearted but if I’m disrespected I can’t regain that respect back. I’m very random at times and I avoid drama! Ideally I’d like friends in their 20’s but who ever vibes with me I’m all for it!

Family culture difference on money

Sorry this is long, I hope some of you get to the end and give advice!!!

So I’m a very thrifty person, things are tight at the moment, the cost of living crisis and my house is heated by oil so things are extortionate. We aren’t on the bread line but we aren’t flush, hubby might be made redundant so there is some financial pressure.

Sometimes I buy my sons something nicer, on the justification that I can sell it on after (♥️ vinted ♥️). I have also been planning on pretty much breaking even most of the baby things I bought from face book market place, side by crib, baby changing unit, etc.

Hubby and I have different money cultures with our families (he’s Indian, I’m British). I’m my family we don’t mix money, we would help each other out if someone was in trouble and will get each other gifts on special occasions. With hubby’s family money is much more fluid, they will give each other things worth thousands of £ just because.

Hubby’s brother bought him a new laptop and a new Google phone, he’s been very generous to hubby. Hubby hasn’t given the same back because brother is much richer.

Hubby and I mostly share finances. If it’s relevant I’m the higher earner.

Now to the point! My babies are so cute they’ve given hubby’s brother (currently single) baby rabies. He’s asked for our baby stuff when we’re done with it. He’s been so generous to hubby I feel really stingy saying no. But I’d never have bought some of the stuff if I wasn’t going to get a return on it - the thought makes me a bit anxious. If we gave all our baby stuff given the second hand value it still wouldn’t equal what the brother had given hubby.

I thought maybe I could give him some stuff but sell some stuff, but hubby said then his brother will just have to go out and buy that stuff, so I should name my price and ask his brother for the money. That makes me feel very uncomfortable, given how generous the brother has been to hubby.

So what do I do ladies? Give it all and suck it up? Give part of it and sell parts on Vinted/FB, or ask hubbys brother for money for it and be uncomfortable? Or do you see another solution?

No one is being entitled or rude here, just a culture difference I need to navigate.

Advice

Hi everyone! I honestly have 0 social queues when it comes to talking to anyone in general. I definitely have a hard time talking to other women and making new friends. I can 100% relate. I just don’t like the idea of texting or meeting up but when I do I’m like “oh this isn’t bad.” Any advice? I also have a hard time getting comfortable and just feeling judged by other women😅 I’m also 19 so maybe making a change in this now will help in the future making mom friends/friends in general. Thanks in advance!

Looking for more same age friends!!

Hi! I’m 23 and a stay at home (soon to be) mom. I have been having a tough time finding friends/women in similar circumstances to mine and would love to make some if possible! If you feel the same, let me know

BJ’s

Am I the only one that thinks blowjobs are boring?

My relationship is failing I feel so alone.. I need a girlfriend to talk to :(

I'm a sahm and I feel so stuck... anyone going through the same thing? I could really use someone to relate to and talk through this with. Feeling so vulnerable but if I don't I won't be able to pull myself out of this
