[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I wish there were a way for those in the same boat to connect. I’m not a single parent but my youngest is a junior and I am mentally preparing for his departure. DH is in bed by 9 and a homebody so I’d love to have friends to do things with some evenings. What I have done so far is join a book club but that’s just one evening a month. I have a number of hobbies but I’m not just looking to fill time but to build connection with others. [/quote] I could have written this post! Yes, not looking to just pass time. Looking to build connections with others. And not just fleeting connections but deep lasting ones. It won’t be hard to fill the time but I feel like whatever I do, it just won’t be as much fun without the kids. They are so much fun. An empty nesters club would be perfect. Another idea for OP… more trips with or to see extended family or old friends. [/quote]
