GTKY- SO and you social time

huzzahuzza

A new friend of mine seems to be busy all.the.time but with things completely separate from her husband. I am getting the feeling if she could be busy and out of the house every night of the week, she would be happy with that. She's not the first person I've met that is like this with their husband but it got me thinking...
So tell me about your SO and your social time!

We do a lot together. He has a wider social circle/more time consuming hobbies (I'm looking at you, golf) than me so if anyone's doing something separately, it's him usually.

Same thing like @tee18‌. DH has more hobbies, especially during the summer with softball and baseball.

We do pretty much everything together except for quick grocery store trips. I know some people insist you must do things separately but we really enjoy the way things are. With my husband working such long hours we would never see each other if we decided to spend even more time apart.

For the most part DH and I are always together which is mainly due to how many times we've moved and his career. In baseball he did stuff with his teammates on road trips but when he was home, we did things together or as a group because everyone was in a new city and we only had each other. I was fortunate for 5 seasons that he stayed in the same organization and they kept a group of people together up through all levels. When we moved to NC we didn't know anyone and both of our jobs didn't really yield a lot of new friends. Our friends are our neighbors so for the most part we hang out as couples. The guys go watch sports and the women talk but we're all together.

If we still lived in NY with our friends from high school/college we'd do a lot more seperate things.

I picked SS.

We do most of our socializing (which isn't much) together, but DH spends one night a week with his guy friends. Right now, I do not get any time for myself.

When I go back to work, I will insist on also having one night a week to myself, either to go to happy hour with my coworkers or just sit in Starbucks alone and read. I love my family, but I fear I will go insane if 100% of my time is spent working or with the kids.

We do pretty much everything together. Except when he wants guy time he will hang out with my brother and if i want to go shopping I will go with my MIL, mom, or girls in my family. Like this past weekend dh went hunting with my FIL and brother. And I went christmas shopping with the girls in my family while my MIL offered to watch dd.

When my H is not working we do most of our "socializing" together. But he hangs out with his buddies as much as I hang out with my girlfriends. Which isn't often.

We have a pretty good mix of both. I have a larger friend group than him that goes out a lot, so if anyone does things separately it's me. Before Emmett, he would tag along to some of our FACs and such, but now he stays home with Emmett. However, most nights we spend together.

H and I don't get to spend a lot of time together and we are mostly homebodies. If we have to do social stuff, we go separate but only so we can bail and blame it on having to get home for each other. "So sorry my husband just called and there's some drama at home....have to run!"
