[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, where do you live? NOVA?  I am in my mid-30s though I do have young kids. If we lived close by, I would love to meet up. I too struggle with making friends. Most of mine from pre-kids days live all over the DC area.  I feel like my neighborhood is unfriendly too, though perhaps it's just a perception I have b/c I work and I see many SAHMs who are able to meet up during the week day.[/quote]

PP, I'm a NOVA SAHM, and I like my fellow SAHMs, but I would like to make friends with the WOHM, too. I don't like being in the SAHM ghetto much, but it seems that everyone's exhausted after a long day at work or with the kids and it's family time. Your neighborhood moms are perhaps similar?[/quote]'

I'm the poster you're quoting. I hope you didn't think I was making a dig at SAHMs! I wasn't at all.  Just commenting that it's hard to feel as included or even noticed at all when I don't see those moms during the day.  It was sort of like that with my moms' group- it splintered into two factions- one which SAH and could see each other during the week day and one where the moms work and only got together on weekends here and there.

I agree with the after-work bit- I'm exhausted, but more importantly, my kids are still so young that they start going to bed at 6.30 and 7.30.  But weekends are fine for us![/quote]
