[quote=Anonymous]OP, I understand how you feel.  The PPs who have responded with things like "get over it" or "just make your own friends" are being totally insensitive and unsympathetic to your very understandable frustration and anxiety.

I thankfully have a very close group of friends that I've had since my pre-mom days, but if it weren't for them I'd feel very lonely because I find the moms at my DD's preschool to be very cliquey and unwelcoming to newcomers.

At the end of the day, I try to focus on my daughter, my husband and the close friends that I do have.  I try to focus on the genuine relationships that I have with them and I try to remind myself that the cliquey, mean moms are probably acting this way out of insecurity or because they don't have genuine love/intimacy/friendship in their lives.

I'm sorry you're going through such a hard time.  Know that there are others out there who are good people too, and you will find them eventually.  In the mean time, give your kids and husband an extra hug.[/quote]
