I'm guessing you are in an affluent area OP?  I find people shun this "trying hard to make friends".  You aren't supposed to really talk about it and it can take years to make real friends.  Just remember- you aren't at summer camp, MOST of these moms HAVE their circle and don't need to add more so you need to tread lightly.  It's like dating, if you look too desperate and needy, they won't like you and will be turned off.  
If you are looking for just friends, there are lots of clubs and activities you can join to meet people (book club, church groups, any kind of Womens club, interest groups, etc, etc).  I would go that route first.  Just remember, making friends as an adult is hard and takes longer than it did in your college years and even 20s.[/quote]

NP. I’m naturally distant, and I’ve noticed that few people make friends over “years.” Either there’s momentum at the start or you just stay acquaintances.

I’ve noticed that the people able to make new friends are the ones who proactively invite others to stuff. Sure, the too-busy wannabe socialites will turn you down, but some women will be receptive.

Don’t waste time on bookstore-based book clubs and meetups. These usually attract senior citizen who aren’t necessarily looking for younger friends either. [/quote]
