[quote=Anonymous]OP, it sounds like you are letting the "mom" portion of your life define you. It also sounds like you're judging the women you meet because they don't check ALL your boxes. You don't have to have your mom friends fill all the buckets you need for friendship. Your mom friends can simply be the parents of your kids' friends and people who you like chatting with while your friends play in the backyard. You can have other friends (who may be single! or not parents! or other genders!) who fill your other buckets. You might do well with reconnecting with your high school and college friends. On one hand, forging friendships with new friends can be hard, but on the other hand, I feel like being home during the pandemic has given me the opportunity to make close new friendships with my neighbors.
