[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have many child free friends. Some I knew before we were thinking about marriage and kids. One close friend I met in my 40s and she is 7ish years older than me. Honestly, I mostly see them without my kids — but that is true of my friends with kids also. My husband and I are older parents so our friend with kids have children that are a decade to two decades older than our children. We aren’t hanging out as gangs of families — too much age difference. We also have always had a lot of childcare so easy to see people. I much prefer conversations that have nothing to do with my kids when I’m not with them — not that I don’t love them, but I am an entire person that doesn’t need to talk about them all the time.[/quote] NP same - one of my closest friends is childfree & single. We still manage to get together for dinner/drinks 1-2x/month. I also enjoy having adult conversations that have nothing to do with kids or parenting. [/quote]
