Do you guys actually want friends?

I see a lot of moms in here saying they want other mom friends, and I love that because same 🫶🏽

But in my experience, a lot of the time when I actually connect with moms who say that, there’s no follow through. Communication is inconsistent, no one is really proactive about planning playdates, and the friendship just doesn’t get the chance to grow.

I get it, making friends as adults can feel a little awkward. But I’m not a man and I’m not pursuing you 😭 this is a two way street. Friendships take effort from both sides.

I’m all for building real connections, but it has to be mutual.

Agreed. Effort is needed on both sides. I’m not like that. I joined this looking for genuine friendship and a real village, because I know I need that.
