I feel a little pathetic mentioning this, but me and my husband are friendless =(
We have friends that are single, but when we got married we became odd men out. Then when we had a baby we seperated ourselves further, we just no longer have any common interest. Does anyone have the same issue, or know how to find people that have the same common interest. Don't get me wrong my husband, daughter, and I always love to just hang out with each other, but we would like to shake it up a little.
I would like to meet a couple, with a child our age so that our kids can be friends as they grow up. My daughter is 9 months old, and very active and friendly (she loves to watch kids). I have tried to meet mothers on play date websites but I cannot generally make play dates because of work.
If anyone has any suggestions please let me know, I am open for advise. Geezz, I really sound pathetic =)
Hi E.- we have a working moms playgroup that meets one Sat a month- usually in McKinney/Frisco/Allen. We are all around 30 ish- and have kids ranging from 9 wks- 6 mos to 2yrs- girls and a few boys. Let me know if you want in! We are trying to set up one for January. You can check us out on iplaygroups.com search playdates/ Mckinney.
Hi E.!
You don't sound pathetic and at least you are asking and seeking!! That is great! First off, are you a SAHM? If not, this does tend to make it harder to meet friends during the week because that is when most "moms" get together and let their kids play and also set up Play-Groups/Play-dates. Due to this, most family time is set up during the weekend when Dads are home.
I am a 42 YR SAHM to my 3 year old son. I have met lots of new moms and made some really great friends just from talking to people that I meet at malls, parks and other kid-friendly venues.
Either way, you can meet friends. Where do you live?
Send me some more info and let me see if I can hook you up!
I am the membership VP of a MOMS CLUB here in Allen and have met some wonderful moms. Some work part-time and full-time, but we are all friends.

Good Luck!

I think we are in the same kind of boat. Me and my husband got married pretty young and now have a 13mth old and 2 dogs. I am 23 and my husband is 26; we have been married for 3 yrs and are in our 2nd house. I guess we just strive for more than most of the people we grew up with; Which seperates us from our friends that are still trying to "figure it out". We keep in touch with all the same friends and about half have kids around the same age as us and are married, but we all work and have busy schedules so we rarely get together to hang out. We also have single friends and some that are married but arent tied down by kids yet, so we see them even less now. We are looking for other couples that we can hang out with and let the kids play aswell. We moved to Gunter recently and love it out in the country. Let me know if you want to meet up sometime. ____@____.com both love to meet new friends.

This may seem obvious, but I really recommend you choose a good church and get involved. You will immediately meet people in the same walk of life and provide your family with a good environment!
