I have joined a Meetup group in my area for some non child conversation and to meet some friends in my area for me and Arthur. Today we are going to Rolie Polie which is this gym with a ball pit and a jump castle and tumbling classes from 6 months on up. Ok getting back on topic. I've been desperate for friends ever since I moved to South Carolina. My husband has friends that we hang out with from when he lived here when he was in elementary school so he gets to have his guy interaction but the only girl we hung out moved (and she really was not that mature either). (I will also mention that I do not have my license to drive in this state yet due to some red tape and the dmv being open at weird hours).I think that this group will be a good thing for Arthur and I as he has been cloistered away from children around his age besides the week we visited my grandparents and my aunt brought my 1yo second cousin. Did anyone else have this much trouble meeting mom friends?

I'm glad you found a group! I have met a lot of great moms through meetup.com.
We moved to Austin 8 months ago and I only have 3 good friends here (a lot of acquaintances though.) 4 if you count the one friend that has moved out of state. My husband and I share our main vehicle (he has a motorcycle but because of everything he has to take to work it's not practical right now) so I'm homebound a lot while he's at work. 2 of my friends live in the neighborhood. We met when one was attempting to get a neighborhood playgroup together. It's great because we often walk to each other's houses so it doesn't matter if I have our truck or not.
I am apart of a few local mom's groups but without a vehicle I haven't been able to make a lot of meetings. It sucks but it's not going to last much longer. I'm really looking forward to getting out there more now that we are settled in one spot for a while. (I was going to ramble on but I'll leave it at that.
)
I hope that your non kid meet up is good! We don't have any in this area.
