Well every friend I've tried to make in the last 4 years or more has always gone the same. 1 of which we were off and on friends for the last 7 or so yrs. Another i met working at a pizza place, we both delivered pizza and bonded over that and smoking bud. Lol but she lives so far and she don't make as much attempt as I did with coming to c her. She only came out twice to my newer house cuz i picked her up the first time and second time I had an app and showed up late cuz the app ran over due to tests. (This was right before I had my surgery to remove most of my lady baby parts). Lol anyways we grew apart when she moved another 20 mins and I haven't felt like she makes the effort, plus I c her go to her families that live near me and c her go to other friends houses. Which idk if they live closer but I know this friend makes more then me and she just ends up paying her bd's way (and I say that cuz idk if they r together or not) long story. But then about 4 to 5 months ago I started to get close to my bf of 4+ yrs' oldest sons bio mom. Then to keep it private, I'll just say her man wasn't around so I was helping her with appointments for her pregnancy and even up to a few weeks ago I was still helping after he came back a lil over a month ago. Well last time we hung out it was I thought supposed to just be me, her and the baby. (Maybe some of her kids) but then she showed up with him. Not to sound mean but everytime I was at her house he was around so I figured if I invited her over we could be a bit more comfortable and he didnt have to be up her ass. (There is more but I won't say it all) and ever since that day her and I barely talk and I haven't seen her or the kids since my son's party and she couldn't make it but dropped the kids off. Idk I just feel like im not meant to make friends. I mean I've been on this app for yrs and not made 1 real life friends. I dk maybe its just me. Anyone else feeling like this? I just haven't had much luck on here or in real life. Maybe im too old to make new friends. I just want a friendship like in the shows and movies. I want a connection to someone since im not close with many ppl. Please give me ur experience on here. Have u hung out or kept in touch with anyone. Lol sorry its so long.

Learn more about our guidelines.I would switch places with him in a heartbeat. He gets to work from home and be with the baby, while I work full-time in the office. I only had one month of maternity leave and was able to work from home for an additional month, but by two months old, I had to return to the office and leave our daughter with her dad and in-laws.
Now she’s almost five months old, and he complains frequently about how difficult it is. His mom is often there to help, but she struggles with the baby too. He seems increasingly frustrated, and I’m worried it’s going to affect his mental health or our relationship.
Would it be better to just put her in daycare? I really don’t want to because I’m worried about her getting sick, and I have a hard time trusting other people with her because I love her so much. But am I being selfish by refusing daycare when it seems like he’s struggling to handle everything?
What would you do?

No one ever replies to me. Comments or messages. I’ve reached out a lot and not a single person has ever wrote me back. Is it the way I look? What’s so terrible about me

Bit of a personal post but I need some advice, I’ve always struggled with my libido especially since I went on the pill when I was 14 and i was on it for 6 years until I decided enough was enough as it destroyed me completely.
When I came off it i felt great and felt like I was going back to ‘normal’, but since having my little boy I’ve been struggling and it’s really affecting my mental health and my relationship. My partner is very understanding and wants to support me but I’m not sure what else I can do to get it back 🙁
I just don’t feel normal and feel broken in a way? All I want is to be able to feel that connection with my partner too.
Has anyone else experienced this and have any advice? I have an appointment booked to see a nurse to discuss it but thought I would see if anyone has any other suggestions.

Boyfriend broke up with me & left.. claiming he isn’t in love with me anymore but still loves me? I just gave birth two months ago. Idk how to navigate this and I’m so terrified of doing this alone and I obviously have no income.. he claims he’ll take care of us but that sounds too good to be true. Looking for advice and some positive affirmation here. Our relationship was so beautiful and then he completely flipped a switch & says he isn’t cheating. I’m so devastated

i would just really love a genuine best friend tbh!
one where we can just talk about anything and everything with no judgment
has a child around my age and who is around my age so we’re going through the same kind of life stages!
i’ve always wanted that one genuine best friend, where we’re like each others favourite friend, where i don’t have to second guess if they’re closest friend is me.
and one where we’re basically joint at the hip 😅😅
i’ve always somehow been the second choice and backup friend lol
it’s pretty lonely right now ngl, for me and for my daughter who has no friends
i live in wales and i’m 22, daughter is 2
