Hi ladies I am feeling a little depressed because it seems like I am to boring for my age. I am 23 married with 2 kids I dont drink smoke go to clubs dont really like parties I just feel like I m a party pooper when I go around people who do drink and smoke ect. I dont feel like I fit when Im outside my home. I guess Im just a homebody huh? Anyone else kinda in my shoes? Hope I made sense. Happy 4th July ladies!

  •  Well I never was a drinker or a partier. Now I am a 29 yr old SAHM of 4. My husband & I dont drink,smoke or party. Our idea of fun is going bowling,to the movies,or to the park.We go as a family.We even try to have friends over as much as we can,we order pizza and play the Wii or just watch a movie. I sort of look at it like I have kids and I wouldnt have someone watch them so I could go party and I would never do anything while my kids were home to impair my decision making. Dont get me wrong Im not bashing people who drink,as long as its done responsibly. I guess Im a homebody too !

  • I am 23 years old and even before I was expecting I rarely did drink...when I was 18 an 19 though that was a different story... I smoke pot, drank, popped pills...but yeah now I am VERY boring!

  • I felt horrible because I missed my dear friends bridal shower but I wasn't up for the festivities at all. It just wasn't something that I wanted to do, at all.

    Quoting Swt_Mama:

    Thanks thats how I feel to a tee! Like there is a bridal shower I am invited to in August and I dont know if I really want to go.

    Quoting Hybrid:

    I am right there with you. I don't do much and when my friends invite me out I tend to make up excuses. I don't smoke either, when I go out I may drink but it is never in excess maybe a beer or two. I enjoy being a home body, I enjoy the time I spend with my husband and kids.

    I know quite a few women our age that have husbands and kids but still go out drinking and partying every weekend. I often wonder about them, why they feel the need to go out EVERY single weekend. I don't see the point, I have all I need at home. Two crazy toddlers for entertainment, one sexy husband for lovin' and an unlimited juice bar... Life doesn't get any better then that.

    Cheer up, you're not a boring woman. You're a mom and what is more cool then that?

  • I wouldn't call you boring for your age, your a mom. A mom's life is never boring!! If you enjoy being home instead of out partying then good for you. Trust me, my 15 yr old likes to tell me I don't have a life, but I've been there, done that & don't want to go back. It was more exhausting than being a mom! lol  You can check out my page anytime and we can be boring together!

  • I'm 22 going on 23 and I'm the same. It's not that we're boring we're just into different things than most people our age. Even before I had my DD I didn't smoke, drink, or go to clubs. I'll occasionally go to parties but if they become too rowdy with drunkards than I'm out.
