[quote=Anonymous]I totally did consider his friends when we first started dating. However. We started dating when he was only a year out of college and going to law school in the exact same area. So many of his college friends were also in law school plus many of his college friends stayed in the college area.

Here's what made me stick with DH despite some of his douchey friends:
- when one of them said something douchey, DH would roll his eyes and comment on it later each time. "Sorry Dave said that about women. His mysoginistic side really comes out when he's drinking. He drinks too much." 
- a few times, DH would actually tell his friends off. "Dude, you can't say that" or "Hey man, that's not cool." So I really got the impression DH was ready to move away from some of his friends.

When we talked about moving away and staying in touch with our friends from the area where we met, DH (we were not married then) even said to me, "I'm ready to cut some people from our lives." All of these things reassured me that he was still a good guy. I also looked at the new friends he made once we moved - guys who were responsible, showed up on time, went to get a drink at happy hour and didn't get drunk, had manners, etc. [/quote]
