Hi everyone,

Trying this again and tweaking my post a bit as yet to find my 'people'. With 8.3 billion people in the world, surely there will be some like me just waiting for me to find them! 😅

Most of my days are a mix of school runs, dog walks, housework, homework, cooking, and bedtime routines. Basically, I spend a lot of time keeping tiny humans alive.

Somewhere in the middle of all that, I realised my social life quietly disappeared, so I’m trying to fix that.

I’m quite a chatty person once I’m comfortable, although introductions like this always make me overthink everything. I don’t really have a neat list of hobbies, but I do enjoy learning random things and disappearing down rabbit holes I didn’t intend to fall into. I struggle to maintain conversations when I feel there is little effort going in on both sides, hence I never seem to form any connections that stick 🤷‍♀️That's the problem I am running into now - not a lack of messages and contact, but none with any meaning or that go anywhere...

Music-wise, my taste makes absolutely no sense. It’s very mood-dependent — one minute it’s My Chemical Romance, the next George Michael, and then somehow The Carpenters. I don’t pick a genre, I pick a vibe. I don't have a favourite song, but it could be one I listen to on a loop at anyone time.

I also really enjoy old films and classic Hollywood. Give me Cary Grant, Audrey Hepburn, or Katharine Hepburn and I’m happy — there’s just something about that era that never gets old. North by Northwest was pretty good (Eva Marie Saint is still alive at 102!), Guess Who's Coming to Dinner is one of those slow-burn films with true meaning behind it - Sidney Poitier and Spencer Tracy were so talented yet in such different ways. As you can tell, if it's a subject I am passionate about, I can go on and on (perhaps overly so).

I also have a bit of an interest in medical topics, which means I’m the annoying person who reads random health articles. I find it absolutely fascinating though and am in complete awe of the human body and what it can do and accomplish. I can happily lose an hour down that kind of rabbit hole without meaning to.

I don’t read as much as I used to, but I still enjoy Danielle Steel and autobiographies — especially when someone’s life is more dramatic than a soap opera. I'm currently on Valley of the Dolls but i'm just at the beginning so not sure where it's going to take me yet.

My favourite films include The Green Mile, Shawshank Redemption, Schindler's List but I like the easy watch ones sometimes too, depending on how much I want to think at any particular time.

A few random things about me:

• My life is basically school runs and trying to find things that were just in my hand

• I can have a full conversation while simultaneously forgetting what I was doing (or what is being spoken about)

• Silence after the kids are in bed is one of life’s greatest luxuries, but it's rare as I am usually ready for bed then too!

• I will absolutely overthink a simple message reply and then forget to reply anyway. I get bored easily and am not one for small talk... "how are you?" (do you really wanna know?), "what are you up to?" (the same as I normal am?) - argh, it just grates on me after a while. Let's bring the conversation out of the normal topics!

I’m sometimes a bit slow at replying — not because I’m ignoring anyone, but because my brain enjoys juggling too many things at once and occasionally drops one 😄Although, if I am really engrossed in the conversation replies suddenly come thick and fast, I cannot think why.

If you think we might get along, tell me a bit about yourself and maybe we could start something good! It would also be nice to take it to phone chats further down the line, and maybe even meeting even further down the line. I want lasting connections, not pointless chats that go no where.

Thanks for reading!

Hi everyone,

Writing posts like this has never been my strong point, so please bear with me 😅

Most of my days are a mix of school runs, dog walks, housework, homework, cooking, and bedtime routines. Basically, I spend a lot of time keeping tiny humans alive.

Somewhere in the middle of all that, I realised my social life quietly disappeared, so I’m trying to fix that.

I also have a bit of an interest in medical topics, which means I’m the annoying person who reads random health articles and says “that’s interesting” far too often. I can happily lose an hour down that kind of rabbit hole without meaning to.

I don’t read as much as I used to, but I still enjoy Danielle Steel and autobiographies — especially when someone’s life is more dramatic than a soap opera.

Hi everyone,

Writing posts like this has never been my strong point, so please bear with me 😅

Most of my days are a mix of school runs, dog walks, housework, homework, cooking, and bedtime routines. Basically, I spend a lot of time keeping tiny humans alive.

Somewhere in the middle of all that, I realised my social life quietly disappeared, so I’m trying to fix that.

I’m quite a chatty person once I’m comfortable, although introductions like this always make me overthink everything. I don’t really have a neat list of hobbies, but I do enjoy learning random things and disappearing down rabbit holes I didn’t intend to fall into. I struggle to maintain conversations when I feel there is little effort going in on both sides, hence I never seem to form any connections that stick 🤷‍♀️

Music-wise, my taste makes absolutely no sense. It’s very mood-dependent — one minute it’s My Chemical Romance, the next George Michael, and then somehow The Carpenters. I don’t pick a genre, I pick a vibe.

I also really enjoy old films and classic Hollywood. Give me Cary Grant, Audrey Hepburn, or Katharine Hepburn and I’m happy — there’s just something about that era that never gets old.

I also have a bit of an interest in medical topics, which means I’m the annoying person who reads random health articles and says “that’s interesting” far too often. I can happily lose an hour down that kind of rabbit hole without meaning to.

I don’t read as much as I used to, but I still enjoy Danielle Steel and autobiographies — especially when someone’s life is more dramatic than a soap opera.

A few random things about me:

• My life is basically school runs and trying to find things that were just in my hand

• I can have a full conversation while simultaneously forgetting what I was doing

• Silence after the kids are in bed is one of life’s greatest luxuries

• I will absolutely overthink a simple message reply and then forget to reply anyway

I’m sometimes a bit slow at replying — not because I’m ignoring anyone, but because my brain enjoys juggling too many things at once and occasionally drops one 😄

If you think we might get along, tell me a bit about yourself and maybe we could start something good!

Thanks for reading!

Good morning, trying this again as I still have failed to find 'my people'

I feel it useful to list the ADHD and EUPD as it does impact my ability to make and keep friendships. I get distracted quickly so may need a nudge sometimes - I am not intentionally being ignorant but maybe the conversation is not interesting enough I dunno. (I'm aware that makes me self-absorbed but it is what it is 🤷‍♀️)

My EUPD is suppressed most of the time until I interact with people which doesn't happen very often. But I'm lonely, yearning for social interaction. I can get quite obsessive over people and then shut them down just as quickly. Hence why I find myself alone and isolated now. As I age I'm trying to do better but opportunities are far and few now - I'm broken and beyond repair.

I will talk to men or women but a lot of the time I just get men saying I'm pretty and a good man in my life is what I need. Trust me, I don't. I've never had problems attracting men. I'm a full time mum and romance is not on my agenda - it has rarely lived up to expectations or met my needs anyway.

If you have read this far without getting bored or thinking I'm (too) pathetic then maybe you should comment, who knows? You might make a friend.
