Ditched by Friends

Curious, has anyone else seem to be ditched by their friends all of a sudden? It's like were incapable of having fun or hanging out anymore. It's really frustrating because I can only be at home for so long before I get cabin fever and get an anxiety attack...

Yes this happened to me. People started to think I shouldn't leave the house or something. But they soon came around and I would go for walks and cook and read to keep me occupied until they did. Try talking to mothers your age it might help.

Well, I guess I'm glad I'm not the only one. I feel like I have the plague or something. People used to come over all the time and hang out, drink, play video games, watch movies, now nothing. Not a text or phone call. It's a shame.

I'm 23 and even after getting married in July we lost a lot of friends. Don't get invites anymore. I have a few friends who are more mature or with kids. But still

If your friends do not have children or are not to that point in life you stop having things in common. Real friends will stick around. But at the same time you have to realize that your life is about to be very different.

Yep I'm 19 and 38 weeks pregnant and lost all my friends since I told them I'm pregnant then lost my job so I have cabin fever just sitting at home all day day after day. But exactly what other people are saying true friends would see you pregnant or not

Im 26 and now 33 weeks and when I found out I was pregnant I lost all my friends who still party and dont have kids. It ***** but its their loss! I have 1 best friend who has a kid and has stuck around throughout my entire pregnancy which is great for me. She has given me tons of baby girl stuff and helps me when I need space from my boyfriend.

I had the same problem with my first I was 15 all my friends quit hanging out with me till this day I don't talk to any of them not even my child hood best friend. I have one friend now that is my best friend she's quite a bit older than me so we get along great. My fav thing to do was go to heavy metal concerts. I tried once to see my fav band and it was horrible so uncomfortable. Now I feel left out cuz my husband gone to 2 concerts this week it's lonely being pregnant

I get left out of things...a lot. I don't think that they mean to do it, but it still hurts a lot. I know I am pregnant and it's not like I go out and stay out all night like we use to, but it'd still be fun to go to the movies and stuff every now and then. Have you thought about planning a girls night one night?

I wasn't into partying even before I was pregnant, we would just kick back and chill, play video games and now, nothin. It's so messed up.
