I feel that I have no social life ever since I became a Mum.(don't be mistaken, I love my child and my role as a Mother truly) As I'm a young mum when I had my kid, most of my friends are still in my their singlehood or non-parent life. Due to our differences they had also drawn a line between us and I find it hard to re-connect back to them anymore. I can't meet to their schedule or life interest too due to my own commitment. I'm absolutely ok with being alone and doing things myself most of the time but there are days where I do feel really lonely. My hub and siblings are like my only "friends" now. My work place culture also happened to be that people don't have lunch or connect and socialise together too as our office is a small one with just a few of us. Its not their style to mingle. I think some of the mummies may face this problem too. How do you manage or cope with this feeling ? :S

you are not alone. I do not have a social life until recently. well, I would not term it as social life but just a short me-time... I will wait for my 2y8m LO to sleep, then I will go catch a late night movie. it really makes a difference. at times, not having a social life is not important. most important is having a husband who helps you.
