My thoughts, exactly. Sorry, OP!

FWIW, my parents divorced when I was five, with my mom having full custody and having to work long hours. I'm also the only child. Honestly, I don't remember my mother 'socializing' with any friends during her time off, she was spending all her free time with me. She had friends from college she was in touch with, mostly, by phone, but that's about it.

I started school, met some friends there, and it has been a smooth ride ever since. Now that I'm an adult, my mother resumed some old friendships she was too busy to maintain before.

OP, for crying out loud, it's not your parents' fault that you lack social skills.

I kind of agree here.  I have poor social skills and have struggled both to make new friends as an older adult, and with maintaining old friendships after I no longer live in the same area.

My parents had friendships when I was growing up, and have maintained several long term.  It is really a different thing.  My issues are my own.[/quote]
