[quote=Anonymous]Most parents I know in N Arlington don't become friends with their neighbors. We've lived in our house for 6 years and barely know our neighbors, including the ones with a kid in the same grade as ours. We've never connected socially. How is your reception at kid activities? Soccer? Girl Scouts? Boy scouts? PTA volunteering? Being a volunteer at activities really helps to start to make friends--that how I found a social circle. I've also moved a lot and it takes about 2 years to really build a circle (or even the start of one). People are just really busy with kids and work. The first year is the hardest, but your phone doesn't really start to ring with invitations for about 2 years. It just takes time. [/quote]
