[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It sounds like you only want to spend 1 hour with people is that correct?

Watching football or the caps on TV is not expensive. Sometimes we get free tickets through work.

Pizza, salad and wine is not expensive. But if making a salad is going to ruin the experience for you because it is so much work then having people over is not a good way to go.[/quote]

OP here: and yeah, an hour or two. We have a wide circle of people we enjoy socializing with, and aren't really looking to be out until midnight with any of them - just hang out for a couple of hours, then go home. (We are in our mid-40s, and the days of being out all night at a bar or something are long over.)

I do have friends I want to spend more time with than that - we might go on a day trip somewhere. We have some friends we'll go out to a museum with, or go kayaking or something. I have a friend I often go for walks with. It's not that we ONLY go out to dinner - but I would say that 80 percent of our socializing is over a meal. Is that unusual? [/quote]

I'm 50 with teenage children. Most of our socializing is over a meal, but almost always at someone's house. We go to restaurants with friends only rarely. Usually when we go to a restaurant it is just with the kids. I find it much nicer to socialize with friends in someone's home.[/quote]
