10 Ways Friendships Change When You’re The Only One Without Kids - Page 9
You really, really can’t flake
If your mom friend agrees to an adult-only girls’ night, you better not flake on her. She either already hired a babysitter who will require payment whether or not the night happens.

Maybe he said no to plans, because he thought he’d be busy with the kids, and now it’s too late for him to join in on those plans. A lot goes into making an adult-only night happen for a mom, so you have to be the most reliable person and make sure you stick to the plan.
