[quote=Anonymous]So they are mean - only because they don't want to be your new BFFs?  It sounds like they are being nice to you - and that they are busy - with plans with other people.   If it's every parent in the school but you, that sounds mean.  But if it is just a group of close knit friends, that's not being mean.

There are plenty of moms at my son's preschool that are nice to me one event, then the next event it seems like they barely know me again.  I spent a few months feeling excluded and like something was wrong with me.  But at some point, I just realized that people are tired and busy.  And lots of the moms knew each other already, so its not like they are excluding me - more like I was never included.  It does make me sad at times - not because of their behavior - but because suddenly I find myself at a point where I could use some more friends, but can't quite click with anyone - because everyone else has a lot of friends already.

Now there is a mom, that I am clearly on her "B" list.  It's actually almost funny.  My DH and I now laugh when she suddenly calls and their plans have freed up - the A list must be busy.   [/quote]
