Frustrating

I hate telling guys I’m married because every time I do they cut me off immediately. my husband is okay with me having male friends, and I tell the guys that but they still cut me off. Am I wrong for not wanting to tell guys I’m married ? Im not looking to cheat it’s just cool to have a guy friend 😩

if they cut you off because you’re married, they were never going to be that ‘cool guy friend’ you’re looking for. if a man stops contact with a woman purely because she is married, it means he was actively seeking something else and then sees no value in this woman anymore because she cannot give that to him. that’s definitely not a man you want around you babe! definitely do not lie about being married, that’s disrespectful to your partner in my opinion, whether in your mind it isn’t for that reasoning or not. and also it would be building a friendship on a lie which would never lead to anything solid anyway so a waste of both of your times xx

But it’s weird because they be in relationships and tell me about their relationships and I don’t be caring. And I would never lie about my marriage I tell them straight off the bat, I would just saying maybe I shouldn’t unless they asked.

From experience, a man being in a relationship and also being open about that relationship is by no means a sign that they aren’t also actively trying to pursue cheating on that woman with you.

mums without mums 💔😪

Anyone else no contact with their mum or other family members? It is so hard and isolating, I wish I could have had that perfect family, my baby should have grandma and other family!! I tried so many times to fix it and to deal with my mom and at least try to stay cordial and ignore her remarks but my mom was always so overly dramatic and mean to me, she even said I’m not her child anymore and to not come around for holidays about 4 years ago because she didn’t like the guy I’m with 💔😪 Our relationship was always strained since I was a child too..

Birthday cost

Is £300-£400 a normal amount to spend on your child’s birthday?

I think that’s so standard when you consider presents, clothes, decorations, cake and an outing. My partner thinks a 2 year olds birthday shouldn’t cost this much as they won’t remember it and I get what he’s saying but the cost of everything is so expensive I think it’s hard for it not to cost that much.

Thoughts?

Distance

Why is it that when I’m swiping to find friends (within a 15 mile radius) it’s showing people over an hour away… I live in NWI and it’s showing people all the way in Chicago. Like cool I’m open to talking but let’s be honest I don’t wanna travel to Chicago to meet up with someone or have them travel all the way here! Why can’t it just show me people near me and be done with it?

I'm 34 and would love to build a bestfriendship!

I’m 34 and looking to build a genuine, meaningful friendship—not just someone to occasionally text. I’m a mom, love animals, and enjoy trying new things, laughing until my stomach hurts, and making memories. 🥰 I’m looking for a best-friend type of connection where we can talk about anything, support each other, grab coffee, go shopping, have girls’ nights, or just hang out and do absolutely nothing. 😂 I’m big on loyalty, honesty, and being there for the people I care about. I’d love to meet someone who’s looking for a real friendship that can grow into something lasting.
