Hi omfski, i'm Donna also known as babyhopesxx

I'm now officially a sahm as i've just started a 5 year career break from work. I spend pretty much all my time on my own as oh works f/t and he also works in the evenings for a bit of extra cash. Although we're not exactly getting on at the moment and he's really pissed me off this morning

Hey! I am definitely lonely and need some friends.

I'm Lea, I'm 24, I live in Derbyshire. I'm a SAHM/carer/OU student starting in October. I don't get out much because my daughter is disabled and needs 24 hour care. I'm happily married to my lovely wife H, and it's our first anniversary in just over a week.

Ummm what else.... I never know what to say about myself I like reading, baking, swimming, playing Xbox games. That's it really

We have Skyrim though I've never played it to be honest! It was wifeys, I bought it her last christmas. I might give it a go though. I love the dragons. FUS DO RAHHH!

I like Tomb Raider I'm really looking forward to the new one being released next year. And Bioshock. I've completeled Bioshock 1 & 2 and now I'm waiting for Bioshock Infinity coming out (was meant to be in October but again they've changed the release date )

I like watching films. I'm a sucker for a good horror (I like atmospheric ones rather than actual scary. The Grudge terrifies me but I like stuff like Paranormal Activity and Blair Witch, or there's a Youtube series called Marble Hornets that I really do love.)

My little brother loves big bang theory but I've never really watched it to be honest. I like 2 Broke Girls and New Girl though.

Max is a bit of a looker. Big boobies too The girl who plays Max was in Thor. I didn't realise because she looks quite different!

New Girl sometimes annoys me too. I sort of watch it with one eye and do something else with the other. Right now we're watching the F1.. Well wifey is

What are you upto tonight?

 

[ljo1984]

Hi I'm Lisa I'm 28 and have two little girlies! Keep me on my toes! I'm also not getting on fantastic with oh, but as long as I have my girls that's all that matters to me
I've just gone back to work as a nurse, miss them so so much. I don't really have any hobbies, or many freinds. How sad do I sound lol. X

 

[MoonLove]

I love Skyrim, i have played to far too much now though...

And hello! I'm Gem and i have a 1 year old daughter. I have anxiety which causes some problems with going out and travelling so i haven't got out a great deal since having baby. I don't go to any baby groups and don't really see many people, so i get really lonely. I play far too much xbox and i like doing crafty things, drawing things etc.

Great idea for a group, i remember your thread in the GS omfgski

xx

 

[Tegans Mama]

Hi Gem & Lisa :wave:

Gem I have anxiety too, and no friends. I don't get out too much myself either

 

[ljo1984]

I don't go to baby groups, I hate going into places where groups are already formed! I'm shy anyway and I feel so uncomfortable! I think I mentioned in other thread that I went to baby massage and everyone just sat in silence pretty much! Was awful! Xx

:wave: Hello!
Its strange really, because i didn't really notice this isolation 'happening' over the years. I left school at 17 and i met my husband the year after. In these past four years, i have lost contact with old school friends, and i haven't been in work, so i've not really met anybody I keep saying i'll go to a mother and baby group, but i don't really 'know how' to - i have forgetten how to properly socialise! I don't want to make friends just to make excuses as to why i can't go out with them! x

 

[babyhopesxx]

Hi back again :wave:

Well I don't have many hobbies apart from swimming. It's my one 'thing' that I do every week. I've thought about doing an OU course but don't really know what to study lea what are you studying?

I don't keep in contact with any of my old friends from school because I suffered with depression back then and cut all ties I maybe see someone like once or twice and don't see or hear from them again for years.

When my eldest was a baby I went to a baby group and it was very cliquey it put me off going to them again. I'm also very arkward (sp) in social situations and struggle with what to say and making conversation with people. I'm such a saddo

I am starting OU in October! too What are you studying? I'm doing Spanish and French language. My husband is fluent in Spanish and we'd like to raise our baby(s) to be bi/multilingual, and with all this free time i have at the moment, i figured i may as well be learning something!

 

[Tegans Mama]

I'm doing a psychology degree Something I've wanted to do for a long time.

I'm really bad at socialising too. I don't know what to say to people. I just stand there and either smile (and look like a crazy stalker) or just talk to Tegan (and look like I came to babygroup/wherever just to sit in a corner on my own).

Nice

I totally understand what you mean about talking to your daughter when socialising. When people are around me, they obviously fuss around Heidi first, so i kind of just 'become' this daft giggling fool. I start babbling rubbish about what shes been doing, like its the only thing i have got to talk about. If anyone asks about me, i just say "Oh yeah i'm fineee"

Whenever my BIL & SIL come to stay, i don't get involved in them playing with Heidi, i always seem like such a bore. I kinda just sit to the side, strecthing my face into some sort of constant smile, in case anyone looks at me. I am not confident playing with babe in front of others, so i look like im sulking most of the time

Hello omfgski!

No way!! When i first got Skyrim last year, we were moving into our new house, and i remember sitting waiting for the estate agent to show us round the house again, and i spotted some purple flowers on the green and i thought 'Ooh, i'll go and get them!' I still chuckle when i see them now!!

Oohh craftwise, i always seem to have a new hobby each week haha, i get bored too easily with them. I like drawing, i like scrapbooking and such, and one hobby i enjoyed mainly throughout my pregnancy was customising dolls and my little ponies I pull out the hair and rethread new doll-hair into it, and i paint on new faces or colours. My new interest is origami, but i'm not very good I just love the idea of making a pretty little random something out of something as simple as paper.

I love writing soo much. I always have, i used to write like stories for english class with about 20 pages extra that what the teacher asked for, and she'd ask me to condense it - which was impossible! Stories should have no page limits! I want to write again, but i suppose with my OU and baby, i won't have a great deal of time, and i'm always unsure what i'd like to write that other people would enjoy aswell.


I'm annoyed at myself this week because i bought a small lightweight stroller for baby, because her old pram/pushchair was ginormous and such an ass to lug around, but i've not taken her out in it yet My husband helped to put it together and we took it on a test run to see how easy it was to push around, and i've still not bothered going anywhere on my own I wake up, i do typical things like have breakfast, get changed, make-up, baby has her milk and then i kinda just sit down, check the internet and then i take up doing something in the house whether its tidying or watching a film or something, so i just never end up actually going out It needs to change, its so frustrating. x

Hi everyone! Had a few days away from the laptop because I wasn't well so apologies if it looked liked I'd abandoned the lonely ladies thread already! I wasn't being rude I promise!

Tegans Mama, I think it's the boobies that seal the deal for my OH haha! Oooh Thor has my wife in it, Natalie Portman hahaha! I'm a bit late in replying so I'll answer for tonight instead of the other night lol, all I have planned is the excitement of celebrity big brother then bed! I will be so lost when cbb ends. I don't know why I watch it because it's pure rubbish but I can't resist! Have you been up to much?

Hiya to Lisa and Gem!

You don't sound sad, Lisa! I don't have any friends either so I know what it's like lol. Oooh I'd love to be a nurse but I'm too scared of germs with my OCD. It's one of my dreams that if I get better I could train to be a mental health nurse and help other people. I'm EXACTLY the same with baby groups. My mum nags me (with the best intentions) to go to the ones local to me but I just can't walk into the room like that when they know each other already. Our antenatal classes were like your baby massage ones, just pure silence. I felt so sorry for the midwife running them!

Oh Gem I am unhealthily addicted to Skyrim now haha. I was watching television the other day and there were some flowers in the background and all I thought was BLUE MOUNTAIN FLOWERS PERFECT FOR MY HEALTH POTION! I think I'm going to have to pack it away until I calm down haha! I'm another one of us with anxiety so also don't get out much. I feel awful for my baby sometimes because she doesn't go out much as a result! Oh and the looking like you are sulking thing is one of the things my family have told me off for. I just have a naturally grumpy looking face haha! What crafty things do you like doing? I was into making polymer clay jewellery for a while but then I read the fumes stick to your oven and it freaked me out

I think that's how my spiral into loneliness started too, Donna. I had depression (and the first appearance of my OCD ) in college and literally just cut everyone out one day because I couldn't cope with it. I've seen a couple of them since but they all moved on so weren't bothered with me anymore. I can't do small talk either! People sometimes talk to me and I see their faces go from to to to to Not fun lol.

Aaaah I'm so jealous of you all doing OU! I've already had my student loans etc from my degree so would have to start saving to be able to do one and there's no spare money atm boooo lol. That's so cool that your baby could end up multilingual, Gem! I might start getting my languages back up to scratch, give me something to do! I did Japanese at uni but you wouldn't know it these days. All I can say are useless sentences like I AM A CAT and YOU ARE A TELEPHONE

Wow that was a mega long post lol! Hope you are all well!

ETA: I just read that back and I sound mental lol. I'm not! Honest!

Oh gosh yeah the dreaded small talk! I hate it, i can't think of a word to say, the other person looks awkward, i get awkward and then i panic trying to think of things to say when all i want to do is run away and hide. Lol. As usual i've no plans for today, just sittin at home until i pick ds up from school. He's just started his new schol and i dont know anyone there, i try and get there as late as i can so i don't have to wait around for him to come out of his classroom and i try and get out of the school as quick as i can i've also registered with a new doctor surgery so i've made an appointment for tomorrow to see my new doctor and have a chat with him about how i'm feeling. I've been suffering depression for a long time and i've been trying to deal with it myself but i can't anymore.
