[quote=Anonymous]Is there a reason they don’t invite her to third wheel ? Like obviously sometimes that doesn’t work but if it’s a group activity that isn’t particularly romantic or date like then if it’s 2-3 couples and your daughter it should be fine. Are they not inviting her or is she turning them down bc she is sensitive to being without a boyfriend, or just weird about third wheeling?

My 17 yo does have a boyfriend and will hang out just them plus her best friend, who almost never has a guy who has progressed to that stage yet. Maybe it helps that her boyfriend was someone that hung out with both of them before they started dating? (Somewhat friends with bff) and usually boyfriend will invite a few of his guy friends so then it’s just a group. They have a lot of fun but they are more the party crowd than the double date movie crowd (she will do that too but likes a bit of social chaos and meeting new ppl and so does he)

Maybe these girls are a certain type that aren’t used to mixed gender friend groups? So it’s either all the girls or it’s couples….she should really expand to making friends with guys and mixed gender groups and move away from girl groups who sound too rigid and kinda limited socially.

And college freshman year will be different - most don’t couple up in any serious way that first year.

Last suggestions - if she can’t beat them, join them. Ask to be set up. It’s not bad practice. She doesn’t have to be serious with anyone.[/quote]
