[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Parenthood makes all of us lame.  My teens cannot imagine that their dad and me at one time were adventurous, hip, hot party-animals. They snort in derision when we talk about our wild shenanigans.  Now, all we want to do is wear microfiber pjs and read a book on our tablet or browse DCUM at night.  [/quote]

Op here. This is/was me. Maybe I’m having a midlife crisis. I just lost all my baby weight. I look and feel fabulous for the first time in a long time. I feel great! I want to go out, want to travel, see shows and concerts. It is me that has changed. If you spoke to me a few months ago, I would have preferred to go to bed at 8.[/quote]

OP, what is your relationship with your DH like? I lost a ton of weight and want to dress up and go out with my DH! I love to travel with my kids as I love to expose them to the world. A sightseeing vacation with my friends is my idea of hell.

OTOH, things I typically do with my GFs are grabbing a coffee during my lunch break or going to the gym or going on a spa vacation. Did you try floating these ideas to your GFs?[/quote]

Marriage is best it has been in years. We have been going on more date nights. I love how doting he is to our daughter. He is an extremely capable person and can handle the kids. We spend a lot of time together as a family.

DH and I both go out with our friends alone once or twice per month. We do date night every other week or so.

We have four family vacations planned over the next year. I know that some may consider that a lot already. I want to do a girl trip to Paris or Italy. DH is very sweet and said we can go as a family. I’m lucky to have a wonderful husband. &lt;3[/quote]

OP you sound like a have-it-all. Everyone else is not so lucky or does not prioritize their life this way. [/quote]
