The problem is that it sounds like DH is content.  You're not going to be able to force him to make couple friends if he's happy with his current social situation. [b] If YOU want friends, YOU have to make them.  It doesn't have to be couple friends.  Join an activity related to your own hobby and make friends.  It sounds like much of your life was tied up in your daughter.  So now is time to do stuff for yourself[/b].  Obviously can't do much now, but what are your own hobbies?  [/quote]

+1. I’ve had our few couples friends get divorced and friendships that were based on our daughter being friends drift apart during the challenges of middle school.  After that I realized it’s better to be friends with someone that I get along well with and think is a good friend, not based on being half of a couple or having kids that are friends.  Those good friends are the people that I have been turning to now.  My kids know who they are, have met them, I talk about them ,and some have seen my kids grow up.  Depending on the size of a wedding, they could be invited as a family friend and would bring their plus one.  My DH has a few college friends and is content with that. [/quote]
