I wish I had one of those when my kids were babies. Soo cute

It is indeed more difficult to make friends after 30. It is because we grow up and start fearing that people might judge us for having a laugh, for being gossipy, immature and so on. Generally after 30 most of us have settled down with kids, we must be a good example for them and display a good image to our new neighbors or to the other school gate mums. If we have been wise enough, we held on to our childhood friends and with them, hell we can have a good laugh, we can share everything and we can go to them for real support when we have real problems. If for whatever reason we find ourselves with no real friends, and in need of some, all I can say is that yes: chat with other moms at the school gate, with the lady who sells you cosmetics, with the one who walks the dog at the same time as you, (no matter how boring and awkward the conversation is), make as many acquaintances as possible, with time and effort, a small percentage will become your close friends. Good luck!
