Does any other dad out there feel lonely?
4 months in, loving being a dad, but feeling incredibly lonely. Anyone else?
I'm a new dad to a beautiful four-month-old daughter, who I love so much.
However, now that we're in a bit more of a routine, my wife has started going out again on Friday nights and taking days out with her mates. Don't get me wrong at all, it is so good for her mentally and I genuinely want her to get out.
But I feel like all I do is go to work and come home. While my wife is with the baby most of the day (which I fully appreciate is exhausting in its own right), she gets to go to baby classes and meet other new mums.
Meanwhile, I don't really have close friends of my own to go out with anymore, and I've just been feeling really lonely lately.
How did new dads get out of this and make new mates after having a baby?
