I've always read you SN as Angela-shly and now I'm realizing that it is angel-Ashly.
I honestly can't remember why I picked that name on the knot. I think it was a friend that did it for me because I was helping her with her wedding planning and then it just stuck and I felt I couldn't change it to come over here.
My college friends and I had a certain bond. A lot of this was based on mutual circumstances like... oh... attending the same college, drinking and doing drugs together, literally living next door, etc. I've found that a lot of those relationships haven't stood the test of time because either I've changed and evolved, the other person has, or we just don't mesh anymore. Also, none of us were married or had kids in college, so you could hold those people extremely close to you.
In making friends now, I wouldn't be rushing into some close friends with someone that behaved the way we did in college. And my numero uno is DH, so I won't let anyone in so tight. I'm a pretty private person. I want to give a lot of time to just a very small number of friends, I don't want or need a who slew of friends.
This is very much me. I keep in touch with a group of college friends, but we don't see each other that often, and aren't really "besties" anymore. Our circumstances are just all so different now. and it's ok. It's fun to get together and be nostalgic at someones wedding or something, but they aren't my support system anymore.
I have maybe two friends from high school I keep in touch with, but that's probably because I went to 3 different high schools and nobody got time for that.
H and I are talking about moving across the country in a couple years, and people keep asking "could you really leave your friends?" And my answer is a resounding yes. My family is coming with me, I'm good.

That seems to be a UO.
My family keeps telling me how "adaptable" I am considering how much DH and I have moved around. Just because you want to be born in die in the same town doesn't mean everyone does. I love exploring new places and it's actually helped me reach out to others more to make friends.

I have 2 super close friends(one 25 years and the other 20years) that's it. I have a zillion acquaintances tho. I like having a small circle. MH can't go anywhere without running into someone he knows and it drives me nuts.

i hope everyone is just making jokes now, and I am genuinely sorry if I made anyone feel bad with what I said. I definitely wasn't referring to anyone here.
I had no issue with @bellybutt's opinion and am unsure what she needed to back it with facts. I thought she said you can get a safe car and it didn't need to be brand ass spanking new?
Anyway, I have no issue with this UO. No facts needed here for me. Carry on.
I know Larry happened. Please do not try to convince me otherwise. Please don't talk to me about coffee. I don't drink it. I don't caffeine. When I state my opinion, that is me chiming in on a topic. This is not me saying you suck at life if you do or feel differently. If I want to say that, I will. If I want to speak on you, I will.

And you can use whatever birthday and relationship. Just tell them so that they can verify.
Sorry I am a million years late coming back to this... I don't have this option. Only some Amazon Household thing that I can share my Library (?) with another adult who already a has an Amazon account.
It is not perfectly okay to not be able to find time to clean things like the toilet, showers, or kitchen counters.
Again, let's not confuse tidying up (or, if you are from the Pittsburgh area, "red up") with actual cleaning.
I don't agree. There is no excuse for kitchen counters to look like shit unless you have abandoned hope of cooking another meal in there and are eating elsewhere. Who wants to eat from a diner at lunch with all the breakfast mess still out? Not this bitch.

Even when I have time for friends (I mean outside of work & family obligations), I don't wanna. If I have free time, I wanna spend it sitting on my ass at home binge watching something & eating crap food (&/or doing whatever else). Sometimes I crave hanging out with friends, but almost always when the time comes to go in my head I am all DNW!
There should probably be a "what was your first car thread" since now we have multiple posts on this topic and no UO's. I need a McBenny ruling on this.
Is there a thread? I just got back from lunch and I have a pic of mine. Where do I go?

I may be an asshole friend.
100% doing something with someone is just one more thing I don't want to do. I'm also a really lazy homebody

I've gotten a lot better about cleaning, but I have a feeling that once my kids are old enough to bring their friends over I will have an always clean house. The fear of embarrassment is a huge motivator for me. I grew up in a clean, organized home and want the same for my kids.
I just found a baby story time at the library tomorrow. You all made me realize that I need to make some sort of effort in the friend-making/leaving the house department.
Lord Disick a lady in my yoga class just told me about something called Hike It Baby - basically local groups for parents with small kids to hike. Not sure if this is up your alley, but may be worth looking into. Hikeitbaby.com
I don't know maybe it's just because I've moved a good amount and whatnot, but I think most friendships have a shelf life. Not all friendships, to be certain, but I'm always dumbfounded when I hear about people being friends since they were in diapers together.

I don't agree with this. Maybe you see it as shelf life and I see it as neither party continued to nurture and grow the relationship with the different milestones in your life so it died.
Also there are different levels to intimacy in friendships such as in other relationships. You can be a fun and good acquaintance type friend doesn't mean we have to be all up in each other's business.
Anyway, I just feel you don't know how to be a friend to many and that is ok.

Are there groups for moms who like to binge-watch Gossip Girl on the couch while wearing no pants and no bra?
