"Hey, look what I've Got!" ... I'm sorry, but I just can't right now ... [rant]

I notice as I get older it is harder to have friends. I am married and two kids. Most my friends are all married with kids also. So we are all busy, and have a hard time getting together.

Tomorrow we are all getting together for the football game. It is going to be a great time. I am hoping a buddy of mine is going to start working out with me in the morning too.

You mean guy friends he hangs out with or are you asking if swings both ways? He's not bi.

He never had many guy friends, people drift apart between kids and divorces. The few he still has all live impossibly far to just hang with (so any get togethers can't include drinking unless someone is spending the night at someone else's house). I actually wish he had buddies that shared some of his interests.

Of course, I'm no better. I have exactly two women I consider good friends, one from the coven, one is part of the couple I got "custody" of in my divorce. My first husband hated all of the friends I had when I met him so he made sure they stopped being part of my life.

Gets hard to make new friends when you get older.

It's hard to make new friends your own age I find. I have made plenty of new friends in the past few years...most of them are much younger than me though (I'm 37, most new friends between 23 and 30). As someone who chose not to have kids, looks much younger than he is, and works out a lot, these seem to be the people that gravitate towards me...and that's perfect as it's so much easier to get out for a night of watching UFC or whatever when you have friends that don't have kids.

Joose + GH means I'm not as old as my birth certificate says I am.

totally agree.....actually, it's easy to make unhealthy friendships, but harder to make healthier ones.
But at my age, the women I meet all have older kids and are unhappily married so are willing to hang out.
