[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In general, the women who people perceive to be exclusive don't usually intend that. They are doing their thing with their friends with whom they are close. Their kids have been together for a long time because the moms are friends so they spend a lot of time together. Which is not to say that they should not be more welcoming -- they should be. But I think often it's not about intentionally leaving anyone out as it is about being oblivious and not really giving much thought to how they are perceived and the vibe they give off.[/quote] This. Plus way too many women are afraid of interrupting, or joining in or just generally putting them self out there over and over to the same group. It's like if other moms don't fawn over you then you just stand back and act like you are being ignored. And then there is the complaint of showing up once, no one went out of their way to be overly excited to greet you, so now they are all mean and stuck up and you are never going back! Making friends takes time, and maybe a lot of time, like a year +. You are too old to be fawned over. Join in conversations, introduce yourself when you don't know someone and realize that all those tiny conversations and chit chat add up so don't avoid. [/quote]
