I am asking b/c me and FH mostly spend time just with each other. we pretty much do everything together no matter if it is something that only one of us will enjoy. we barely have any friends, and the ones that we do we hardly ever see.
I was just wondering how everybody else are, b/c sometimes me and FH think that maybe we are the odd balls that no one wants to be friends with

Welll, it was much more active before wedding planning. We're just too broke to do anything.

Re: how is ur social lives?
How long have you two been together? I ask because in the beginning I think that's great to spend a lot of time together but I think especially in marriage, you're going to need time apart from one another and friends don't like to feel like you only come to them when FH isn't around. FH and I still have friends that we hang out with every here and there and then when we get together after, we have more to talk about.

Re: how is ur social lives?
pretty sucky lately! Living in DC, people tend to move in and move out a lot and dont typically stay here for long. A LOT of our friends have moved away from the area!!! And now the few friends that are still here & our schedules never match up. Hopefully it'll get better after the wedding when maybe we'll have some more time!

Re: how is ur social lives?
for us, it depends on the day ... this past weekend, FH and I both texted everyone we knew and asked them to hang out and not one person was available. but there are other days that are opposite.
we invite a few people over on Tuesday nights to watch Lost ... and usually, FH goes out with his friends on Thurdays (and i make my own plans with my girlfriends).
we should double-date sometime

We go out a lot, but it's because a lot of our friends live very close to us. One of FH's best friends is my downstairs neighbor and most of our friends live in the same relative area.

Re: how is ur social lives?
FH and I are homebodies.
but we are always on the lookout for couples we can make friends with. we sometimes hang out with a few of the guys he teaches with and their wives/girlfriends.
also, we are both annoyed by a lot of people. so when we find people we like we snatch them up.
THAT'S WHY WE'RE HANGING ONTO THERESA AND CARLOS. we love you guys.

Re: how is ur social lives?
Fh and I were never the type of people to spend all day together every day.. we maybe see eachother 3 to 4 days a week.. (we have been together for 13 years, lol) Im the type that needs time alone or with friends and so is he!!! lol We do a lot on the weekends with others and with ourselves...our schedule is always crazy but I would say we are def the type of couple that likes to go out!!! :)

Re: how is ur social lives?
It's rough but it's always been like that.
I work full time I work pt on the weekends (5-20 hours in 2 days) I go to school full time
So.. the only night that is DEF always available to hang out are Friday nights and even then i'm ready to pass out at 12.
In regards to friends, we see his friends quite often cuz they are always all together doing stuff. Not me, i have like 5 groups of friends. It's hard.

Re: how is ur social lives?
we go out a lot but sometimes its hard......FH and I don't live together, nor do we live down the block, so when we make plans, it usually involves like a whole timeline layout, which is VERY annoying.....
we said we wouldn't be going out much anymore, well, atleast things that involve $, and we are spending more than we ever have lol.....for some reason, we have been bombarded with weddings, 30th birthdays, baby showers, bridal showers, etc.......
our fav thing is getting together with another couple or 2 and going out to dinner.....that i don't think will ever stop because we both have an obsession with food LOL.

Re: how is ur social lives?
I want to clarify, me and FH arent glued to each other b/c we only want to spend time with each other, we would be very happy do the separate thing. we hang with only each other cause we pretty much have no one else to go out and have fun with

Re: how is ur social lives?
We used to have a really tight crew of friends, but people get older and move on.
I lost one of my best friends last year. I couldn't take his negativity anymore and just had to let go of a friendship that I had since the age of 15.
We've been hanging lately with a couple of couples (LOL) that are super cool...they like the same stuff, they're cool, they're fun, we can go grab a few beers with them or just chill at home and play board games. It's all good.
Then there are a few of my friends who are a little older than us (mid- to late- 30's) but are pretty much the funnest people I've ever met. We've been friends for about 8 years and they get along with FH so well. These are the folks I call my 'Pearl Jam buddies'...we met on a message board years ago, then met in person on the tours, and we hang ever couple of months or so. I love 'em.
And then there's newer friends, thanks to LIW ...they know who they are, and Neel and I love hangin' with them. He and I were saying in the car last night that once all of our weddings are over, we should do something that isn't fkn free like a bridal show LOL
And we both hang with our friends either together or separately. I also like to do things alone...which he's finally getting used to.
With the wedding, funds are tight, but all of these people understand.

Re: how is ur social lives?
FH and I are homebodys mainly bc of me lol- we just enjoy staying in and cuddling, watching movies or catching up on our shows, occasionally we will go out with another couple for dinner and go out to dinner/movies on our own

Re: how is ur social lives?
my FH and i like to spend time together on the weekends doing our errands, renting movies, going out to eat, etc.. but i do wish we had more friends to hang out with. we don't have a lot of couple friends, or my friends are busy, or he goes out alone with his guy friends. we need more friends who like to do the things we do!!
