[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Honest query: If not through your kids' schools/activities and your neighborhood, where does one meet new people in middle age?[/quote]
It’s really hard, church/temple/religious groups maybe, but even church seems to have established friendships and cliques. Maybe work, but same there too. I just find many of the neighborhood parents insufferable, but they are probably saying the same about me? Who knows? Who thought adult life would end up being an extension of high school![/quote]

This is just human society?  Everywhere you go where there are groups of people, you will find people organizing themselves into various subgroups and cliques.  Some of them will be very status-conscious with people trying to show they are higher status than others, others will be less so.  Some people care very much about their status, others don't give two flying f*cks.  i prefer the latter.  In any event, I think you'll be disappointed trying to find a place where there are no cliques other than being a hermit and avoiding all society.  Best to work on your inside feelings about it, so you can deal with it in a healthy manner.[/quote]
