I love going out but because I've "been there, done that" a bit too much as a youngster, now my idea of fun is girls night out dinners (I don't drink), coffee or mani/pedis with girls, shopping, etc. I'm feeling my age, I don't even really go to shows (concerts) much anymore, but I always make time for my girls. It's hard to get them to do things most nights though.Allyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06076912971009055017noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4720058975448051242.post-32782076560386502352010-07-01T11:04:51.568-07:002010-07-01T11:04:51.568-07:00I think it's important to have a common intere...I think it's important to have a common interest with your husband. If you don't do things together, you'll drift apart. But I think it is equally important to do things apart with your own friends.

My sister and I would ask her if she wanted to go shopping with us or to the movies, and it was always "No you're Stepdad is going to be home in 2 hours." It's like she doesn't have a life outside him. <br /><br />And that was before she had my two baby sisters, now its just too hard to go out without a whole group of people to assist her.Coyote Rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06965691195583099253noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4720058975448051242.post-77902735041166041562010-06-30T18:07:57.381-07:002010-06-30T18:07:57.381-07:00You're married?

But I realized that it wasn't good for either of us. He would tell me - geez go out with your girl friends! If all you do is hang out with each other and do everything together - what do you talk about? Having friends keeps your own relationship interesting - I think.Chrystalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11559537850990604790noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4720058975448051242.post-55178274326482303022010-06-30T04:13:37.844-07:002010-06-30T04:13:37.844-07:00I'm guessing I'm around your mom's age...I'm guessing I'm around your mom's age, but I've never understood this as well.<br /><br />When I got divorced six years ago I had a hard time finding anyone to hang out with!

Going out was a chore (because she needed a b-sitter) and she really never went out without my dad. NOW times have changed for her and she goes out with friends but she'll still drop everything for my dad.<br /><br />I go out all the time with my girls...and husband goes out with his friends too. Whatevs!<br />I went to Vegas when my first kid was 2,,,and of COURSE got the stink eye from my mom. She didn't think it was appropriate to go "party" in Vegas without my husband. Guess they're just from a different (whack) generation!!! <br />P.S. your hubs looks like Ryan Seacrest in this pic...Cuteness!Nikosmommyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02128980360869456565noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4720058975448051242.post-77794305107055505482010-06-29T20:36:56.312-07:002010-06-29T20:36:56.312-07:00you gotta have your own lives. or you might end up...you gotta have your own lives. or you might end up killing each other.Allisonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16529759096835795744noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4720058975448051242.post-77176437710842778252010-06-29T19:23:59.518-07:002010-06-29T19:23:59.518-07:00Having friends is very, very important!Having friends is very, very important!Jesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03823308210891650705noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4720058975448051242.post-18160516832295195112010-06-29T19:16:07.011-07:002010-06-29T19:16:07.011-07:00I think couples need to do things as couples, but ...I think couples need to do things as couples, but it's also important to do something on your own or with friends.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00255686424178324749noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4720058975448051242.post-75718536110429789692010-06-29T18:45:52.937-07:002010-06-29T18:45:52.937-07:00I agree.
