Hunting for a Friend

We have lived in this area for about 2 years and I have not had any luck in finding a good friend. The friends I had before we moved were awesome, we babysat for each other, went to the park together, girls night out, and our children loved each other. I have met a few mom's at the park, and in my neighborhood. I am wondering where there might be a moms club or maybe a regular playdate thats schedualed somewhere me and my 2 year old could go to meet other moms/children. Any ideas? P.S. looking for a mom whos kids are'nt crazy/wild.

What can I do next?

Not sure exactly where you live, but we have a Moms Club in Brandon.

http://www.momsclubofbrandon.com/

I think this site will also link you to moms clubs in other areas if you look.

I joined about a year ago, when I became a SAHM, and it's been great!

Hate to tell you this but people in Florida are just not very friendly or out going. I moved here 14 years ago and found it very hard to make friends and still do not have any other than two of my neighbors. I have had lots of people tell me how hard it is to make friends here in Florida. I think it is because so many people here in Florida are from everywhere else. My two friends are both born and raised in Florida. I alos tried parks, library and other activites children attend. I just think Florida is a really bad place for making friends. I wish you luck.

I am also 21 I've lived here all my life. I can't even imagine moving somewhere completely different. My daughter will be turning two in Nov. so her and your son are around the same age. Most of my friends do not have kids and the ones that do have babies that are anywhere from 2 to 8 months so my daughter can't play with them. If you are interested in maybe meeting up and staring to do stuff together let me know.
