Not in VA but wanted to say

cricketswife · 07-15-2006, 12:16 AM

no, i don't have kids, and i feel so left out since i don't. i think that's why it's hard for me to make married friends, especially military wives, cause everyone has kids and i don't, and the boy doesn't want them anytime soon

oops, clicked the wrong thing and now i have a second post. oppie

Hi, I'm in Virginia beach. Welcome! If you have any questions let me know, I'll see if I can help. I have one daughter, she's 10. There is a website, hamptonroads.com. they have a lot of their events and stuff listed on there. It has lots of information on it. On days it's not raining and we're not busy, we spend at the pool on the base.

I am from the area. I grew up in Chesapeake and lived in Va Beach after I got married. we are in Great Lakes now but moving back in about a month. i don't mind friends who don't have kids. Welcome.

Hi, my name is Kristy. And we are new to the area as well, we have been here for just a couple of months, we don't have any kids either. And we actually live about 40 minutes from Norfolk, and about 1 hour and 20 minutes from Va Beach. We have been to Va Beach several times... but now that Brent is gone, I don't go alone. We don't have kids either, but Brent and I have been thinking about having them, we just have a few bills to take care of to get out of the way first, so if I can work, then we should be okay. But I understand about what you mean, when you don't have kids, it is hard to fit in, you don't have the same things to talk about, or as much in common. We have a dog, hahah..

I just wanted to welcome you and it was nice to meet you
