[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I've been divorced for about 3 years and have remained close with all of my friends. But I have noticed that I don't have the opportunity to host/attend couple-type dinner or cocktail parties like I did pre-divorce. [b]I find that I have to make more of an effort to get together for night time events, and when I do it ends up being a "girls night" kind of thing, rather than a couples thing[/b]. So yes, I have noticed a difference. [/quote]

I’ll give an honest answer on an anonymous message board.  If any of my DH really close friends divorced (talking we were in the wedding party and are still close 15 years later or been friends since our kids were babies), I would still have them over to hang out and vice versa.  We don’t have couples dinners now and typically my DH  hates attending those types of things so most of our socializing is usually one on one or girl’s night for me, or DH  going to dinner with his guy friends.  Divorce wouldn’t change that dynamic.  Now if I just met you, no I wouldn’t invite you over to hang out with just me and my DH and as mentioned it’s very rare for us to host anything with groups of people. If you had full custody of the kids I could see that being challenging because then that means you might not have time to meet up without kids and my kids are beyond the age of play dates.[/quote]
