Married friends?

Cause it's slow......Do you get along with all your friends husbands?  I ask cause my friend just married a guy I do not care for.  They moved about 2 hours away and I don't think our friendship will survive

Re: Married friends?

  • Sometimes I get along with their husbands better than with them...
  • I have one close friend who is married, and I think he's fantastic. I did have another really close friend who dated a guy I couldn't stand for 3 years, and unfortunately, that pretty much ruined our best-friendship. She is no longer with him, but we have both moved on in our lives. It makes me sad.

  • I'm generally friends with most of FI's friends' wives/gfs.  A few I don't care for as much, but we don't see them often so I can smile and be friendly and sociable if needed.
  • Not many of my friends are married. A lot of them are engaged though and we all get along great. There are two of our close friends that have sh**** men and when we do "couple activities" we dont invite them. That may sound a little mean but they actually have said that they dont go to a lot of stuff because their men suck! They know they have sh**** men. Plus even if the 2 guys were invited they wouldnt come anyway.

    I'm the first one to be married in my friends group, so I guess I'll have to wait and see. My MOHs are dating guys and I love one and dislike the other. He's not right for her, but she doesn't see that.

  • I'm friends with just about all my friend's spouses.  DH and I were friends in college so we have mutual friends and we get along fairly well with them and their spouses as well.  There is one who he's lost touch with and I think it's due in large part to the fact (this is not an opinion) that her husband is a major douche-bag. 
  • I really enjoy all my close friends significant others... with the exception of one.  We all know eachother's feelings on the matter so we don't talk about him at all, and we don't ever do coulple things.  It has definitely made our friendship much more difficult.
  • I get along with all my friends' husbands except for one-and no one gets along with him because he is a huge d-bag. In some cases, I like the husband more than my friend :)
  • I've been pretty lucky--I get along well with most of the spouses.  In one case, my friend looked at me and his wife jabbering away at each other and said plaintively, "She's MY friend!"  The ones I don't get along with so well seem to be married to the friends I didn't keep in contact much with anyway.  So... not that big a deal to me in the end.The biggest problem I've had is just that life priorities shift a bit.  Things are definitely more couple-oriented, and so you always have to consider the other if you're trying to arrange anything with the friend.  That can sometimes get tiresome even when I like the spouse.
