I am the mother of four children and happily married. Sometime I get lonely because I have no friends besides my husband and mother. I miss have that kind of relationship. The problem is I don't know how to correct it.

I know exactly what you mean. My husband and I have been together for almost 7 years. two of them married. and all we have is each other. It's almost like you exclude yourselves from others just because you're married. Or you have the plague and no one wants to be around you because they might catch marriage lol. I had a few friends at work but once I stopped working there and carried on with my life they kind of stopped talking to me. I wasn't interesting enough or maybe it was vice versa...I'll never know. Hang in there. I guess that's what mylot is for...to connect with people and understand what we all are going through. Tiffany

Have you thought about a church? I don't know if that's compatible with your beliefs or not, but it's a thought. What about other parents? Maybe make friends with your kids' friends' parents? If your kids are small, what about a playgroup in your area? Look at what kind of things interest you and look for friends in those areas. I was 'wife' and 'mom' too, but I was still ME as well. Good luck! :)
