[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]She wants them to make family friends. Sorry OP! Mine is the same way. 
I meet women and make friends with them, I think I'm pretty likable. Then we get invited over for a BBQ or something with our kids. My husband sits there like a bump on a log. He answers questions politely but doesn't make conversation and he comes across as a snob. Then we never get another family invite, just me out to coffee, or me and the kids out to a park. 
When I have people over he keeps busy refilling food or cleaning up so he doesn't have to talk to anyone.
He's not a snob, he just can't relax around people he doesn't trust (which seems to be everyone he's known less than 15 years). He loves biking or camping with just our family. [/quote]

This is it! Except my husband doesn’t like biking or camping. And he is a snob, tbh. He is happy to have friends from 15 years ago that he sees every 2 years. But meanwhile I am lonely and my daughter is missing out on having more of a community. Our friendships used to get awkward after we hosted because my husband would not interact with guests. We had to stop hosting at home and I only “host” by inviting people on outings.

I have lots of women friends but those friendships don’t extend to family events. I am friends with women in the neighborhood and included in women-only social outings in other friend groups. I hear a lot about couples and family events that my female friends attend or host and we are not invited to those.

I’m sad because everyone has friend and family things to do tonight but us. We didn’t get invited to anything and my invites were declined because people had big-group plans. I wish my husband would try to be the tiniest bit friendly so my daughter and I could have a social life.[/quote]
