[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is a silly thing to argue about.  OP is just venting that her friends aren't interested or able to socialize the same way she is able to and is desiring.  None of that makes her a bad mom (just like it doesn't make her friends "lame") - OP, it sounds like you just need a friend or two who wants to do the same stuff as you.  I know that is way easier said than done, and I sympathize.

Friends are a huge part of my life, and I'd be really sad to feel unfulfilled in my friendships.  Even if we aren't on the same page, lifestyle-wise, I'm sorry that you're not getting that right now and I hope it shifts.[/quote]

Wrong. She's venting that her friends won't plan an "awesome Europe vacation" like they did in their 20s[/quote]

I would do Arizona or Caribbean too. Doesn’t have to be Europe. My preference would be Europe. Like I said, DH said he would go and bring the kids so I’m planning that now.[/quote]

Gosh OP you just seem tone deaf. International vacations are hard to plan with little kids and most people do not go that extra mile with local mom friends. They would rather do that with friends they do not see that often.[/quote]

I’m actually not tone deaf. I understand why this isn’t possible for most moms. I spoke to my best friend this morning who lives out of town. I’m going to visit her in November. [/quote]
