He normally invites me to hang with the guys- otherwise they are doing things that give us interesting things to talk about :)
She never chooses friends over me. When she talks to her friends, I never feel like it is them vs. me. I encourage her friendship and more.
He doesn't do a lot with friends so when he does, he's not choosing them over me. He should be doing things with his friends sometimes. As long as its not the strip club ;)
Same here - she doesn't do a lot with friends, so it's not an issue. We need to go out more ourselves though!

He never spends quality time with friends but if he did I wouldn't think he was choosing them over me unless he preferred them better than me.
No peoblem. I'm happy that she has friends that she can hang out with
I don't think he ever does. He will always put me before his Frds
We don't choose time with friends over each other. We spend time with friends together. If someone of us spends time with his/her friends w/o the other one, it's just because the other one doesn't find these friends much interesting. And it's OK, we don't feel sad with it, we understand each other :)
I don't get mad she doesn't do it that often and she's there for me whenever I need her she can go with her friends whenever she wants
No matter if it's your partner or your friend it always stinks to not be the one picked to hang out with. I know my girlfriend would put me first but I'd we made plans prior that I think we not understand our priorities.
I don't know the feeling as it never happens
his friends are often over and sometimes he has chose friends over me which makes me feel like the stereotypical woman who waits around for love. But,we both have time with our friends and I'm grateful for it.
It does not bother me cause I know she loves me and friends are important to people.
Awe, thanks baby. I love you!

I enjoy it when she hangs out with her friends. Sometimes it gives us fun stuff to talk about and I know its healthy for our relationship. She also encourages me to spend time with friends. She's pretty much the best girlfriend in thew orld
I feel a little left out but I know sometimes it's good to spend time apart in order to keep things exciting.
We don't have friends outside of each other and I think that is detrimentally to both of us.
