[quote=Anonymous]We moved to a new city 6.5 years ago. I have a decent social network through work, the kids, the neighborhood, and my gym. I work in the office 5 days and interact with a lot of people during the day. I have had two different jobs and done volunteer work in this city and have met/befriended a good number of people. DH works from home, makes very little effort to make or keep friends, and essentially has no social network. We socialize with my network occasionally, but most of the time I get my social needs met between work and time with friends that DH is not involved in. To be clear, if DH and I go to a concert, dinner, etc. with friends, they are people that I met and became friends with independently of DH. Unfortunately, sometimes you have to just make your own friends and then invite your spouse to participate when appropriate. It is pretty annoying, but I will tell you that trying to get them to make joint friends is useless. [/quote]
