getting together with the girls while married (wife, girlfriends, marriage)

[callalillies]

I have a question on what is appropriate when going out with the girls if you are married, in terms of frequency and length of the outing.

Is it ok to get together with girls from say 1:30PM - 6:30PM on a Saturday 1-2 times a month?

Is it ok to leave your husband at home alone to do that ?

I'm unsure what is reasonable and unreasonable in a marriage to do?

Sounds like a LONG time, but a lot of husbands play golf for that long.

All that matters is what you and your husband think.

Its up to you and your husband to decide. Every couple is different and have different expectations of each other.

I would have no problems with my wife going out with girls or even with some guy friends.

Yeah, just don't do anything bad.

I wouldn't mind that, sounds quite reasonable. As someone else said, I'd get a round of golf in.

What would bother me is if the hours were from 10pm-5am.

I thought a guy was asking the question.

Whatever the two of you decide upon is what is reasonable. My husband works the opposite hours of most people and I like to spend the time that he isn't at work with him. I see my girlfriends when he's working - but since that's nights and weekends - it's not ever an issue.

Once a month girls night/guys night is fine. It sounds like a bunco group with those hours.

Whatever is acceptable between you and your spouse is what is reasonable but I can tell you I do NOT ask permission to go and do.

Lol very considerate of you; inquiring to ensure you are doing what's best for you and your husband. Kudos.

As a married man I think it's healthy to not lose contact with good friends. The Mrs I do it every once in a while. It gets a little harder or tricky with kids but it happens. Lol . Just give the hubby advance notice so he can at least make plans or not...to go do something else. Now caution: My contribution only applies if your husband isn't a jealous insecure man I've had to escort a few of them off my property when the wife had her girl friends over and these lunatics show up to "spy on" or "make sure their spouse is okay"
