[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Whenever we want. Not sure I could put a frequency on it. But we have a nanny, so we have a built-in sitter (assuming she's free) and our friends do as well, so no one is either hurting financially or looking for childcare. However, I don't think it's totally a class thing, as someone put it, because my best friend does the same and she and her husband are not remotely wealthy (under $100K combined income with two kids) and the kids were both in daycare so they never had a nanny and they use college sitters. I think if there's a will there's a way, although I think money makes the way easier, for sure.[/quote] We have a seven figure income and cost of sitter is a non-issue. We still never go out with couples. This is probably the way we socialize though. DH and I go out solo with our friends pretty frequently and also do date night a few times per month. We have three children and like spending time with them. We have a friend with a standing date night once per week. I know that go out with another couple often. The wives are like best friends. DH and I don’t have a good enough couple friend we want to hang out with as a couple that badly.[/quote] I cannot imagine that anyone wants to spend an evening with you. You are insufferable.[/quote]
