The Outcast and the Butterfly

Clearly Isabella isn’t the outcast, so that leaves me to fill in that role. I don’t have a whole lot in common with most moms my age. Most of them are into a completely different parenting role and we just aren’t compatible as close friends. Today (other than Johnny) it’s one of the guys from the office that I’ve had the most real and engaging conversations with, yet when I go for lunch with a group of them, I keep my mouth shut and am just the awkward one who just sits there eating quietly. I really feel like I haven’t got much to contribute the conversation and my fear of saying stupid comes out. I know this is probably counter-productive as I really do want those close friends; I’m just not sure how to make that happen. 

Do they have socialization classes for adults? I’d throw money at that in a heartbeat!
