[quote=Anonymous]I have experienced this to a much milder degree, but I am grateful that I kept trying and eventually got better at this. I wouldn’t say I’ve made friends who I hang out with outside of kids, but these people who I made idle chitchat with for years really stepped up when I needed them to. When my mom had cancer last year and I was out of town a lot, these other moms and dads helped my husband by driving my kids all over. When my 8 year old was hospitalized, people sent over videos, gifts and cards that put a smile on her face during a tough time. And we do the same for other families, helping to make things work where we can. I am a major introvert, but I am grateful for the community that eventually developed from these little interactions.[/quote]
