Pained By Spouse’s Lack of Friends
• September 14, 2016

My husband doesn’t have many friends. It is surprising to me, because I really enjoy spending time with him. I know that at his core he’s an introvert and doesn’t really feel comfortable in groups. I have tried to get my friends’ spouses to engage with him, but it never seems to go anywhere. When I ask my friends what they think is going on, they seem to put me off. I know I am speculating, but it feels sad when I see that the husbands of my friends all seem to do things together outside of our family events, but they never include my husband. He doesn’t seem to notice this and has never brought it up with me, but I see it and I am having a hard time not feeling resentful. Is there anything I can do to change this situation?
