[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Trying to navigate the social scene here as a parent with 3 kids. 
I have met some great friends.  Quite a few actually. 
But so many of my interactions with other parents are just frustrating.  I wonder, "is it me?"
People often don't reply to emails, the conversations at school and sporting events are one-sided.   Everyone is stressed and busy and often just cold. 
I get it.  I work full time.  Have 3 kids.  Have a husband in a 60-70 hour a week job.

But I routinely get my feelings hurt when I'm ignored or scowled at or just made to feel like crap by other people. 
I'm currently organizing an event at school (against my better judgement but I got talked into it by the principal) and my fellow organizers are impatient and pushy and so easily 
irritated by the world.  Then the parents we are trying to reach out to just ignore our emails entirely.  They're too busy with everything else.

It's just demoralizing around here sometimes.  Lots and lots of stressed out and cold people.  Myself included.  [/quote]

You say your husband works a 60-70 hour a week job. Are you a SAHM? You might just be more sensitive than the hard driving overachievers that are like your husband.[/quote]
I love that you are trying to insult OP and you're the dummy that didn't even read her entire post.  I hate internet bullies with a 3rd grade reading level.  :evil: [/quote]
