[quote=Anonymous]OP here.  Thanks for your responses.

Basically I want to become good friends with the moms of my kid's friends.  I want us to meet up on our own sometimes but also do family hang outs on the weekends with the kids, BBQs, pizza nights, game nights, dinners out, etc.

I'm fine with drop off playdates and we definitely do those, but honestly I would prefer that playdates be non-drop off playdates where the mom stays, just like in the toddler and preschool years.  I loved those kind of playdates where I would have 2 hours to get to know another mom.  I want to get to know the other moms and become friends, but they don't really seem that interested, since we have never hung out just ladies only.

Yes, I am very lonely on the weekends.  With a spouse who works most weekends, no local family and no family friends, it's just me and my child hanging out together every weekend, or going to their sports, etc. and that gets lonely for me.  My kid doesn't want to spend that much time with just me--they would rather be hanging out with a friend, not just hanging out with me.  None of their friends does the same sports as they do or even lives anywhere close by so they don't go to the same swim class, etc., so that's not an option for them to spend time with friends through sports or weekend activities.
