[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A coffee date is a lot of pressure for a new friendship. Try play dates. Casual, just meet at a park, or have dinner at a brewery or something like that. Take all the kids to a winery in the afternoon. Or have drinks at home or nearby after bedtime. Meeting a new mom friend for coffee would feel like an interview. [/quote] Agree. I’ve made a lot of mom friends over the year, but it takes a while to get to 1:1 get togethers. Start with family friendly stuff where they can bring their kids. We like to host cookouts. Also, plan group things. Text several moms who are all friendly with each other and suggest a kid free brunch or dinner. Having multiple people will keep things fun. Or throw together a monthly book club. I’ll add that I’ve made a lot of my mom friends through youth sports. I’ve spent A LOT of time on the sidelines of practices and sports games over the years, which is good for chatting to other parents. Also, we are always happy to offer a ride to other kids in a pinch and try to help other moms out where I can. [/quote]
