I...I am glad things went well for you at the party! I tend to have a hard time making new friends, too. I am so quiet to begin with, and then IF just makes it worse. I try and ask questions like "how has your summer been?" and then see if I can relate to anything in their answer.Brownirishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05968155365863127002noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5233768990266271803.post-66526026716559001342010-08-30T10:13:08.684-07:002010-08-30T10:13:08.684-07:00I want your friend!

My parents didn't live in a kid centric world, and i don't plan to either. As far as what to chat about with new people, I generally avoid the kid topic entirely. Of course I find most people are pretty self-absorbed these days and can talk on and on about themselves without stopping for a breath, so I rarely get asked anything more than 'do you have kids?'Heatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11568731053148296398noreply@blogger.com
