I’m 46 (female) and have 3 kids. I work a lot and spend my free time being a great mom to my kids and cleaning. It seems impossible to make friends at my age. My work is a place to be professional but not to make friends since they use anything they learn about you for their personal advantage (promotions, etc). I’m also socially awkward and say what’s on my mind even when it’s not socially appropriate at times. My husband is very social and I cringe having to meet new people because I’m afraid they will find me weird. My interests always seem different so I feel like it’s impossible to meet kind and open minded good people where I live. How do you make friends without pretending to be someone you are not?
