Is anyone here the only one....
in their circle of friends without kids? How has your relationships changed?
I feel like the only time I hear from them is if I get in touch with them first or when they want to talk to me to complain about their husband.

Re: Is anyone here the only one....
same here, the only friends I have without kids are the co-workers that I'm friends with. It's kind of sad, I see my best friend maybe 4 times a year, we exchange the occasional email too, but it's not the same...I know if I had a child it would be different b/c we'd have play dates. I don't fault anyone for the change in friendships, it's natural she's busy with baby stuff and I'm busy trying to make babies

Re: Is anyone here the only one....
Yes and no, it depends on which circle you're talking about. We have four sets of friends (three we're very close too) that all have kids. But then we have another group f friends that all got married last year and aren't even TTC yet. Finally we have another set of friends who aren't even engaged yet and one who is still single.

Re: Is anyone here the only one....
All of our friends have kids...there are very few left without. Our parties have gone from ragers to ones with kids everywhere and passing around babies, lol.
It kinda sucks for certain things though, like we can't just go out and get dinner anymore...or meet after work for a drink...but I'll be there soon with any luck! :)

Re: Is anyone here the only one....
Most of my friends are married with kids. I have very few who do not have Chilldren yet. It's hard communicating with my friends who have kids..their lives are so busy now!!!!!! I say I'm never gonna do that...and I hope I don't!!!!

Re: Is anyone here the only one....
None of our friends are even married.
But we're young.
So we're going to be those parents who don't talk about anything but their kid, become homebodies, and our friends don't hear from us ever again.

Same here...
i have two sets... the one set there are a handful with kids, definitely more without kids... the other set, i am the only one... most of them have two or three... one with 4. They are a few years older than me.

Re: Is anyone here the only one....
I'd say I have a mix of both. Most of my friends with kids of toddlers or babies. I wouldn't say there's any impact on the friendship though.
