Wow do I have a stick up my butt or what


MyBabeMaddie wrote: So all week I was so pumped to have a weekend for me and I planned on going down to visit one of my best friends from HS who goes to school about a half hour away. I drove down with another friend of ours from HS. Anyways the girl we were visiting lives in a sorority house/dorm with 25 girls. We were hanging out in her room while she and a few of her friends were getting ready. Wow. They were so immature. All they could talk about was "Do my boobs look big enough" "Does this make me look fat" "Can I borrow your black shoes?" I felt so uncomfortable since all these girls were wearing mini skirts and shirts where their boobs were popping out and I was wearing a long sleeved shirt with black sweatpants that you can pull off as regular black pants. I definitely didn't belong there anymore. All I could think about was Maddie and how I'd much rather be with her. So after about 45 minutes I told my friend that I wasn't feeling well and I had to go. She totally saw through that because she knows me too well. She was really pissed and I was like "well I'm sorry but your friends make me really uncomfortable and this isn't me. I'd rather be with my baby, I thought I wanted to have a night out to act like a college student but you know what I'm not a normal 20 year old I've grown up" and I left.

Simplebeliever replied: Boy do I understand that. I have a lot of single friends and when we get together I always miss being home with my husband and my daughter. I never enjoy my breaks as much as I expect too.

redplaydoh replied: Priorities really change once you become a mom! I totally agree with what Lisa said...

CantWait replied:
Ditto.

Good for you hug.gif

ZandersMama replied: I had that happen after Zander was born. My first night out after he stopped nursing, we got to the bar, had 1 drink and I was thinking omg what am I doing here. Having kids change everything.

My2Beauties replied: Sorry you didn't have as much fun as you'd expected but hon I know exactly where you are coming from....the bars and hanging out just isn't what it used to be when you have a family! wink.gif

sparkys2boys replied: I soooo know what u mean!!! My best friend used to be like that.. all fun.. no responsability. Sh e used to get made at me for not going out with her etc.. but... she's expecting now!!!!! And she will know soon enough what baby life is like!!!

kristy-n-chad replied: I feel the same way, none of my friends understand what it is like to have kids.

msoulz replied:
This is the truth - and it's OK! When you are a spry young 40 something you'll be having lots of fun with your kids out of the house while others may just be getting started. Whatever works for you doesn't make you have a stick anywhere!! hug.gif
