As a soccer mom in my thirties, I’m on the lookout for a kindred spirit to share in the chaos of motherhood and the joys of friendship. If you’re a clean freak and a die-hard CrossFit enthusiast, this might not be the right fit for you. While I appreciate healthy eating, I’m all about indulging in a froyo from that adorable spot our kids adore. I’m seeking someone compassionate and understanding, ready to spend time on my couch as I watch my little one play and rant about the same few subjects over and over.
You don’t need to call frequently; I’m happy to keep our conversations going through texts and social media. I appreciate a friend who’s not easily intimidated and doesn’t judge. If I happen to be lounging in my glasses and flannel pajama bottoms by noon, you won’t raise an eyebrow or mention it to my husband or mom. I want a friend who’s confident, has a defined sense of style, and is comfortable sharing their perspectives without feeling competitive. It doesn’t matter whose partner has the better job or who’s living in the bigger house; at this stage in life, we’ve moved past that.
I hope you’re adventurous and open to new experiences, whether it’s trying out a pole dancing class or planning a spontaneous beach day with the kids. You enjoy reading and can recognize that not all bestsellers are worth your time—50 Shades of Grey is definitely not on your reading list. While you may have had your wild days, you’ve embraced a more mellow lifestyle since becoming a mom. Perhaps your only vice now is caffeine, and while you enjoy a glass of wine on occasion, you certainly wouldn’t choose to binge on three Long Island iced teas in one hour. You’ve likely attended Lollapalooza or Lilith Fair and dream of introducing these artists to your children’s playlists.
You aren’t looking for a friendship to advance any social status. Whether you belong to a country club or not, your happiness isn’t tied to climbing the social ladder. You won’t ghost me when a newer, trendier mom enters the scene, and you won’t pressure me into hosting parties for purses, jewelry, or cleaning products. Your intentions are genuine; you want to be friends simply for the sake of friendship.
Despite past disappointments in friendships, I remain hopeful. If we cross paths at this point in our lives, I’m committed to nurturing this bond. I trust that you will be too.

In summary, I’m seeking a down-to-earth friend who values genuine connection over superficial competition, someone who’s ready to share life’s adventures, both big and small, in this journey of motherhood.
