Wish I had a best friend

I wish I could make a best friend who lives in the same city as me! It would be so awesome to have someone close by for spontaneous adventures, late-night talks, and just knowing they're always there. I'm really hoping to find that kind of connection soon.

Is it just me?

So I joined this to make friends find connections, but I feel like I connected with some people had some conversations and then it just dies out fades out. I feel like and I might be the only one here, but I feel like some people are just on here just to know about other moms and then that’s it, or read posts of Mom‘s going through things and that’s just not why I did this like I moved to a town where I am new here. I don’t know anybody I’m a new mom well, he’s 18 months now but still I’m a new mom. He’s my only son you know and like I do everything and anything for him like 24/7 he is my life so I forgot about who I am and I’m trying to make friends here like I’m trying to create something so when it comes to his birthday parties I have Mom friends that bring kids! My older sister has kids and I go to her birthday parties they’re huge! I’m not jealous but at the same time, I envy that because that’s what I want. I want connections I want friends I want my son to have friends, I feel like maybe some people are just like here for the wrong reasons it sucks! I’m really here to try to make connections and I wish I can get the same effort I’m putting in back. Don’t get me wrong I connected with one girl and it’s been great haven’t set a play date yet.

but I know I’m ranting right now but that’s just how I feel and it’s hurtful the whole reason for this app is to feel better about not feeling like your the only one and there are people out there but I’m trying and it’s just been frustrating I guess

I am frustrated with my mom

As a mom all I want as gift are for my kids to be happy and healthy and I want them to be happy. A cute artwork is fine with me .


But as a child all I want is for my mom to tell me what she likes what she wants so I can get her f gift. Goodness it’s so hard to shove for her!!!!


I have decided not to do this to my kids. I will tell the my likes and wants so they don’t get frustrated like I am now with my own mom. I want to get her clothes and she like I don’t need anymore. I can’t take it with me when they bury me. I am like but your here now and you can use it now (bought her random clothes) Jewelry - why waste your money on me. It’s not like I need it plus it looks better on you ….. (bought her some anyways)
She likes my garden so plants- why I don’t need it I won’t be able to take care of it (she has several indoor plants and loves my garden spends all day in it) bought her three plant totaling over $100 .


It’s so hard to shop for her…. Getting clues is hard

Money troubles

Hi everyone , posting incognito as I am too nervous to publicly. I am having financial issues with my partner . He is working full time and I am home with our 11 month old . I have the opportunity to go back to work which is just min wage retail part time . I just feel so overwhelmed . We are trying to move out of in laws. He pays rent . Money seems to just disappear into thin air. All I want is to be with my daughter . I don’t want to have to leave her with my MIL ( we have issues ) . I hate the fact I’ll most likely have to go back to my old job . I have qualifications I recently completed which are beauty related - facial and massage . I just don’t know what to do with it . I’m in the UK. It’s so hard to find a place . I just want a remote job or a way to make money from home to help my husband out but I can’t find any . I have a degree which doesn’t seem to matter these days . I’m ranting but I’m so overwhelmed . Any one been in this position ? Or have any job ideas or money ideas . All advice welcome 😅 what would you do in my position

Have you experienced a misunderstanding on this app?

Idk if it’s me, but I have commented on posts and have received the rudest, bitchiest comment back when I genuinely was not meaning to come across as rude whatsoever. I feel like a lot of comments get taken in a different tone than intended.
