That never happens. We spend all our time with friends together as well. If I hang out with friends, she is usually asleep. :)
he has never done that.yet.
I would have to agree. I think it is healthy to pursue friends and activities away from your marriage that make you complete and happy. The more happy a person is the more complete they can be within the marriage, but balance is the key!
Balance is important. All one way or the other is no bueno
Happy that she can hang out with her girls and have some time....
We spend so much of our time together, and I love it! But when she wants to spend time with anybody else, it isn't a problem. We both have others in our lives who mean a lot to us, so it is important to spend time with them as well.
Just fine! We both need our time apart now and then.
Neither of us choose our friends over our partner. We understand their importance in our lives and never have issues with the amount of time we spend with them.
I wouldn't say that he chooses them OVER me. But I'm happy when he hangs out with his friends on his own! It's good for our relationship for us to spend time apart and have our own "guy time" and "girl time" :)
I think it's great because it relieves some stress for both of us. He can have his own time away and I can have mine at the same time.
Neither of our friends live close by so this doesn't come up
Well, I'm selfish when it comes to sharing my wife's time, hehe jk, I honestly love it when she has her girl time. I have my boy time every now and then and I think it's good for us and for the relationship to have our "me" time. Don't get me wrong I EXTRA LOVE the "we" time, when we get the chance (we are shift workers and often times its a hi/bye relationship), but I'm also for personal growth and development.
I have no problem with this... I think it is good to have time apart, it makes us appreciate the time together that much more. And, friend relationships are important too.
I encourage it. It has yet to happen.
That never happens. We are still each others first choice of who we want to hang out with even after 25 yrs of marriage. I guess we are one of the lucky ones.
