I am an outcast
OK not really. But here are my observations.
we live in a small town community. A lot of the folks have lived here for generations. They know the other kids Mom since kindergarten.
I am not hmmm I am not a typical woman. While my husband loves it ;) most people are put off by it.
Women are not friendly toward me a lot because I get along better with men. I talk to their husbands and I get "the glare" or they come over and let themselves known. you know the hang on the arm look at me I am his wife BS. I laugh only because TRUST me I am not after your man.
I am not into the typical things. I do not dress up to go to soccer practice. I am a mother not a career professional. I have tattoos I listen to whatever the music of the day is in my CD player. it is not easy listening it could be punk, it could be heavy metal or alternative.
It amazes me how other women judge so quickly. Well not ALL women but a lot do. I have few female friends. I have even fewer friends in this area. Not that it makes a huge difference to me. But it would be nice to have a friend to go out with on occasion. I am not sure if Joe coming to pick me up to go out to a movie would sit well with DH LOL Plus yeah like the neighbors need more fodder for gossip.
