[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I was the first amongst my friends to have a kid. Now I’m 40 and everyone has kids. My friends can’t or won’t go away ever. They have limited time and money or just don’t want to go away. I have 3 kids. These kids make me want a break! DH reminds me that not everyone has the resources to just go away. When my oldest was a baby/toddler, my friends were still single and getting married. We would go out often and go away. New mom friends also seem fine hanging out with kids but evenings and weekends seem to be reserved for husbands?

Maybe I’m the only one who wants to escape my 3 young children.[/quote]

I think you are being too judgmental of your friends.  Maybe they don't have the energy to go out.  Maybe their kids need them at night.  Or they want to re-connect with their husbands or stay in and read.  That does not make them lame.  You have different priorities right now from your friends.

How would you like it a friend came on and complained about a friend who always wants to go out.  And called you lame that u didn't want to spend time with your family?

Surely, there are meet-up groups you could join?[/quote]
