Finding Friends
Does anybody else have this same problem? We live in a small town and are having a hard time finding couple friends in close to our age. Part of the problem I know is that we both are working and going to school. But we can still make time to find them. I am tired of hanging out with my husbands bachelor cousin( my husband needs to grow up but hangin out with this guy is not helping things). Any suggestions on where to look?
Re: Finding Friends
Church, if you're into that? Are there any groups near you on meetup.com? Are there fun places in your area, like a bowling alley etc? Reading group at the library?
There are probably some nesties in your area if I were guessing--tell us about yourself.
ETA: we've met couple friends from the nest, our son's play gym, reuniting with old high school friends, church, etc.
My friends and I were just talking about this the other day. I don't know your situation, but I really think there's a hard couple of years in there for twenty-somethings when you're married, but your friends are all in different stages of life (school, childless, with children, married, dating, single, etc.).
Now that most of my friends are married, we just hang out with each other's friends and their respective significant others. But we still find it hard to meet new people and form new relationships as a couple.
I do think that once you have children and they grow and become involved in school and activities that is a gateway to new relationships.
Church is a big area for us that had led to relationships. Work, too.
Yes. I think it has a lot to do with the fact that we are both in our 20s, childless, work/school most of the time. We are still fairly new to OK so we talk to a few people but majority of our time is spent together.
Hubby and I have met people separately but not couples.
