Am I the only 1 who sometimes forgets about this app?

As much as I want to make friends I find it so hard. That from time to time I forget this app just because it’s been a hit and miss with it. I’ve connected with some cool people but then there’s the mean girls I don’t have time for that. I’m grown and I can’t sit on my phone all day. Life always happens and I do get super busy at times but doesn’t mean I’m not a good friend or wanting a friendship. Anyone else have this problem? Or if you can understand and feel the same let’s connect? I do want the friendship just not the drama of I don’t text back right away 😂

Virtual friendships

As grown women with children it's crazy to be upset with another grown woman for not texting or talking to you everyday. I have friends whom I've been friends with for years and we can go literally months without speaking, when we do align with each other we just catch each other up. Its not healthy to become dependent upon someone who you met on the Internet. The entitlement to feel as though they should speak to you everyday and not take into consideration the fact they we're grown, raising children, work and have our own lives. In my opinion those our signs of dependency and it's not healthy!

Is there any way my husband could take paid leave to support me?

I'm struggling with one kid, let alone two (due in August). I've had zero support (no family, no nursery nearby that takes under 3s),for the last 3 years and I feel like I can't cope anymore. This pregnancy has been so hard and I need more support but my partner works full time over 4 days a week. Is there ANY way he could take some paid leave to help me? I realise I am clutching at straws but I'm desperate

Urethra hurts

20 days since my elective and my urethra hurts, just standing or sitting, its hurting. I’m very wet down there too. I’ve been on antibiotics for 6 days for a possible UTI, and I also got prescribed a thrush cream as I’m also itchy, however it’s very red down there.

No one has tested my urine or checked etc. has anyone else had these symptoms? Do they go away on their own??

How much is okay to spend on a teacher for an end of year gift? - any gift ideas will be appreciated

I was thinking of a gift card, but I also want an item for her to remember.
Will 20£ gift card be okay? With another little item?

I will have to get it x two as want to also get something for the teaching assistant.

I don’t make a lot, but just wondering how much would you say is appropriate to give?

Anyone struggling to make mum friends or even make friends?

Since I’ve had my wee man and he’s turning 11 months old this month and all my other friends had their babies as well it’s like everyone went their different paths/ways and it’s like your left on your own and am I the only one that’s finding it so difficult to make friends?…

Can I be real for a second ?

I’m honestly getting so irritated with this app. 😭 I joined because I actually wanted to make a genuine mom friend, not have the same conversation over and over just to get ghosted.

Like… does anyone actually want to be friends? I’m tired of the dry conversations that go nowhere and people saying “we should hang out” but never following through.

I want a real friendship. Someone I can text every day, go on coffee runs or Target trips with, get our nails done, have playdates with our kids, and actually grow with over the years. I don’t want another conversation that’s dead in two days.

I know making friends as an adult is hard, but I didn’t think it’d be this hard. 😩 Please tell me I’m not the only one feeling like this.
