I used to hang out with friends most of the time before marriage.But after marriage its not the same.Spending time with my wife & kids gets me very less time to meet up with my friends.Now its just in the weekends that I get the time to catch with them.How about you people?

Hey, you still meet up every weekends, right? Now think , how often does your wife meet up with friends? I lost practically all my friends after marriage. I'm the wife. My husband like you still meet up with friends every evenings and some long distance friends in weekends.

Even my wife meets her friends twice/thrice in a month.More often than not friends from other far away places come to our place & you really cant avoid them even if you dont have time.

Marriage didn't change my social life with my friends. I am the same as I was and I believe that we should have our individual identity after marriage. I can't imprison myself within the four walls of my house without social life. Friends keep my sanity intact.

I was a homebody before I got married and I am still a homebody. Before marriage, I would visit my friends once in a while, but not very often, now that I am married, my friends are all far away, so I talk to them on the phone once in a while. Really, not a whole lot has changed except that I have more time to focus on goals for myself and goals for my family.

It depends what comes first. As a wife we place family as a priority. That is why we have less friends.
Overall, its the integrity. to meet with friends i think its best you arrange the time both with the family and friends to avoid all the argument.

Well, let's just say that I barely have any friends now that I am married lol. I am the only one my age that got married and had any kids, besides one of my friends, but she lives really far away now. Almost all my friends moved and any that come back home to visit never see me because Im not in "college" like they are, or whatever. Screw people like that.
