Why is it so hard to make/keep friends (I am a military wife)? I am a military wife, and I have tried to make friends (other military wives). It seems to be harder then when I was in high school. All the people (for the most part) that I have met have been nice (to my face) and then for one thing or another they just stop being friends with me. I have noticed sense I am 24 and a mother to 2 children that most of the people my age aren’t really into the things that I am. They are just now starting to have kids or don’t and they all still party a lot. The ones that are older then me have older kids and I can talk to them but that is about it. I have tried to be the type of person that welcomes people to the area and try to help them out (kind of like what the ombudsmen does, but I am not one). I only get about a few months of being friends with them then they all start hanging out with other people and blowing me off. Is there something wrong with me? I really wish I could keep a friend.
I know a lot of the wives are in the same boat as I am when our husbands are underway (Coast Guard term).
Can you tell me what is wrong with me?
How do I make/keep fellow wives as friends?
