Moved to a new town and know nobody but family. For anyone who has moved to a new state and likes spending time with friends, how did you meet them? I miss having friends. I didn’t realize it would be so hard. Appreciate any ideas even if this isn’t your situation.

Mom friends are something that happened to me naturally once my daughter hit kindergarten. (Not so much at daycare, as it was usually just seeing folks at drop-off/pick-up.) But once she hit the elementary school, I started to become friends with her friends' moms thanks to playdates, birthday parties, PTA events, etc. You won't click with everyone, but if you're lucky, you'll find a couple that just get you. They have been a welcome addition to this season of my life.
