[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My advice is to make friends outside of your kid’s friends’ parents. [/quote] +1 Your post presents as very intense. Few people have patience for that during this phase of life. We're all busy with kids, careers, family, home repair, staying healthy, etc. [/quote] OP here - oops, I did not mean that! I promise I am fairly laid back, I was just trying to formulate my thoughts in a way that would get some specific answers. I recognize that for now, these types of friendships are not that deep. I'm not on the lookout for lifelong friends or anything; I just want to be part of some sort of community that I lost when I moved way from where I used to live. At least for me, the actual "close friends" that I've made throughout my life really come when you see someone repeatedly for a long period of time and also get along well enough where you feel really comfortable with each other. Obviously, that takes time. [/quote]
