So my bestfriend is awesome for the most part. Since she moved away we don't talk as much I know she's busy working, making friends and is single and child free. I'm a stay at home mom looking for full time work, the other day we were texting and she told me that anytime we talk we talk about unimportant things and she's concerned about me. My response was sorry I don't have more exciting things to entertain you with, my son is the most important thing in my life.
We spoke over the phone the next day and it was a decent conversation but what she said really pissed me off. Today she told me she's coming in town next month my response was maybe I'll have important things to talk about by the time you get here. I don't expect her to understand what it means to be a responsible parent since her other friends manage their bar times around the needs of their child but I did expect a nicer statement then what I had to talk about was unimportant to her. Just pissed me off.

Hey There,

I understand this, but something to consider is A LOT of times things come out the wrong way through txting. You don't have voice/tone etc. It's reasonable that how you took the txt is not necessarily how she intended it to come across.. I guess I say that, because she said that she's concerned about you. Idk, just throwing that out there. I'm not in your shoes, but if I was I'd probably be pissed off too.

Oh, I can't blame you. But she is just showing you how out of touch she is with your world. Please don't let this get you down, it can get lonely being an at home mom sometimes, I went through that myself so I know how it feels. But do enjoy your son because even though it seems like you are on some kind of island sometimes, you really are not, this time will go by and one day you will long for this time with your son. Enjoy this time with your son, it is precious and only comes around once.

To be honest, I didn't let the single friends bother me, I loved being an at home mom and yes, it went by too fast now that I am looking back.

I think your friend is being a little selfish. That can happen with friends, don't get discouraged.

((((Hugs)))

We spoke this evening & it was a huge miscommunication. I tried to make light hearted of it & it upset her which was not my intent but she learned quickly as did I that calling one another when an issue arises instead of texting about it creates a better solution. I was also reminded not to jump to conclusions and she was reminded not to be so cold. Thank you for you're advice. =)
