Does your mom have a best friend?

That's sad. I'm sorry for your mom's loss. My mother doesn't really have friends. She and my dad have always been really anti-social and quite content to stay at home, just the two of them. There's a BBQ they go to once a year and the Christmas contacts e-mail family newsletter, but that's about it. I'm probably quite anti-social because of the way I was raised like that, but I still meet up with people and chat a lot more than either of my parents!

Yes,even my mother has her college friend uptil know,she is married but is in touch with mom.

I never lived with my mother but I do remember her having a bestfriend. It was my father's cousin. I had to call her Aunt Linda..lol. They were very close and if I wanted to know anything about my mother..it would be my aunt Linda I would call. I haven't heard from my mother in several years but I'm sure she is still very close to Linda.

hmm... my mom? she have her bestfriend, my dad as known as her husband.

My Mom has been friends with her best friend since they were at school together - she was my Moms bridesmaid at here wedding, and they are still in touch now, both over 70 years old. Recently my mother celebrated her 50th wedding anniversary and her friend came down for it (she had recently lost her husband just before their 50th, sadly) which was really nice for my Mom as they live quite far apart now. I have a best friend who is like a sister to me, so I hope we are the same when we reach their age.

I know that my mother has a group of friends but she has not seen them after she got married because she and my father lived faraway after the wedding. When we went back to her old place, tat was the only time she and her friends got to see each other. She does not even have any of them as constant textmate, phonepal or penpal. But she does have a lot of close friends..

Hi Elic, yes my Mum has and they are still Friends today they have now been Friends for 42 years this is what I call a Friendship for Life

I know that when I was a kid growing up, my mom had a best friend now and again. I only remember one of them though and that was Jan. I only remember her because I was old enough to remember her and we hung out with her family a lot. My mom doesn't keep friendships though, something always comes between her and the friend. At first I believed it was the other person, i.e. Jan, but now I think it may have been my mother who can't keep a long term relationship going (other than her 50 year marriage to dad and the relationship with me and my brother). My Mom has no friends at all now and hasn't for many years. She says that having friends is too much work and trouble and you have to deal with "their" problems and she isn't interested. She wouldn't go back to group counseling for the same reason, she wasn't interested in the other people's problems at all. My mother is extremely selfish. So nowadays, the only, "friend" I guess you could say she has is my dad and those two, whew, sometimes they are very mean together and they certainly compliment each other's not so nice qualities. Fortunately my parents have some good qualities too or we wouldn't have anything to do with them. It's hard to be around them sometimes anyway.

My mom had a good friend, Jeannine. She is a real sweetie. But I wouldn't say my mom had any really close friends that she could tell anything to. She never let anybody get quite that close.

my mom had three best friends, my aunt, and two ladies that lived near us. but my step mom i think she does

Well my mother has always had a best friend and from time to time these changes but while she has one she continues to talk a lot with them and about them sometimes to my annoyance.She also likes to go out with person and spend a lot of time with them

No she is not having any best friends so she always treats me and my brother as her best friends

My is a really friendly type. She sometimes tells me about all she had gone with together with her best friends during her younger years. She also does have some what so cold best friends at the present. She does shares with me all her laughters with her best friends and its really funny hearing those because she does find a jolly way to say it. My mom`s kinda a bit like a joker so she`S really fun to be with.

My mom still has the same group of best friends ever since she was in high school. They grew up together, and we still live in the same province. It's really fun to see them talk as they often reminisce their beloved memories together. On the other hand, my dad is also my mom's best friend, having spent their lives together for 30+ years already. Their kind of friendship is on a higher level as they share everything. :)

That's sad! Yes. I know who's my mom's bestfriend. Since childhood they were playmates and schoolmates. It was very hard for mom when one day her bestfriend bid goodbye for good to migrate in the United States. Distance was never a problem with them because kept in touch through letters, cards and even long distance and overseas calls. I met her when she and family spent their vacation in our country. My mom was so happy and they had great time together. Mom received gifts from her bestfriend and as a sign of appreciation my mom made her a crochet bedspread and crochet blouse. Her bestfriend was so happy then. When she retunr to the US she made order... crochet blouses that she made as a gift fr her foreigner friends and co-workers. It was an honor for my mom to do it for her bestfriend. Hehehe she earned dollars from there.

I believe my mom has four best friends. -my dad -her bird -childhood friend -me She knew Kem really good while she was growing up and thats how I met my best friend, Eric. Her and Kem still spend lots of time together and only live 5 minutes away from each other. My dad, of course, is another best friend. She claims I am to young to be fighting like I am already married, but her fights with dad ends like mine and Shauns, in a kiss and make up. There is nothing stronger than love. Her freaking bird. GRRRRR. ITs annoying. ITS A BIRD lol. And then theres me. I believe most moms want to be thier kids friends. I am happy to say me and my mom are so close and we both cried when i moved out 5 months ago. WE talk everyday and night on the phone and I always manage to go back home for a few days, like every week lol.
