Well if the girl doesn't have any friends, then that is probably all there is to it. The guy just wants her to have some friends of her own.

I agree with you though, she's not my problem; I already have a baby I'm not about to try to entertain a grown woman. LOL I asked him why she doesn't have any friends of her own and he said "because she never goes anywhere without Chris" yeaaaa okay that situation sounds like one I wanna get mixed up in.
LOL...yeah, I'd skip it.

No. I don't even want to be around her friends, much less her friends' spouses. I only want to deal with one person, by choice, and that would be the person I'm in a relationship with.

For the last 3 years I have always thought some of my wife's friends were radioactive.

I try not to get too close to my wife's friends spouses. She can be catty with other women and I never know when she's going to say "I'm not talking to so and so anymore because...". Which is awkward for me because I just start getting along with this couple and then the inevitable falling out occurs. So you go from BBQ's on weekends to a short head nod of recognition at the supermarket. I can't tell you how many times she's had friends who I've warmed up to and then a few months later they are not on speaking terms. Lucky for me the husbands of these women aren't people I have to see everyday, and most of them I didn't really click with either. Military life is very transient, so I don't really get that close to too many people.

Yeah that happened to me once before and it wasn't a comfortable situation because whenever we did something as a group we'd have to remember not to invite one of them and to tell out other friends not to invite them either.

That alone makes me wonder about her; how can you live somewhere your whole life and not have any friends? I invited her to go shopping with me and my girlfriends this weekend and she never replied so I'm thinking she probably doesn't want her own friends anyway.

Not many. I tried for a while, but most of the husbands of her friends really were pretty uninteresting people. They didn't read, and their conversations pretty much centered around what they saw on television or how their favorite sports teams did. Hey, I can hold my own in those conversations for a while, but then it gets boring fast.
