Alright ya'll, need a little advice or confirmation that all is well. 6 months post divorce, 5 girls (4 to 14). Overall things are going great but one issue I feel bad about is organizing play dates. My oldest girls are fine but trouble is with my 7/8 year olds and somewhat 4 year old. We used to hang out with our neighbors (I moved a mile away post divorce) but some of them were privy to my ex's affair and never said anything so I have no desire in keeping a relationship going with them. I've been working hard to get in touch with there other friends parents but it's a little odd being a single dad and asking for there girls to come to my house or even reaching out as it's usually the mom's that plan these. I'm admittedly not the most social and my friends either don't have kids same age or none at all. It's slowly getting better but I can't help but feel like a failure when my 4 year old asked why only 1 of her friends came to her birthday party. (just had a buddy with his daughter and my folks come over for cupcakes) while my ex had a birthday party with a bunch of her friends. Just feeling a little overwhelmed with it all, trying to just give them a loving and simple home life without all the drinking and having to buy stuff to distract on a daily basis but sometimes they just see what they don't have with me.
