I'm more of a hermit to begin with and I'm more tied to my LO since I'm still nursing and he doesn't take a bottle. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-socializes-more-often-you-or-your-so#post-57967 Tue, 24 Jan 2012 16:57:39 +0000 Mrs. Oatmeal 57967@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We're both homebodies, but DH is a pastor, so he ends up going out a whole lot more than I do. Plus, I've got a serious social anxiety disorder, so the fact that I go out with a friend at ALL is a big deal. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-socializes-more-often-you-or-your-so#post-57955 Tue, 24 Jan 2012 16:48:35 +0000 DillonLion 57955@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Definitely me. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-socializes-more-often-you-or-your-so#post-57949 Tue, 24 Jan 2012 16:45:35 +0000 plantains 57949@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My husband for sure. I'm lazy :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-socializes-more-often-you-or-your-so#post-57793 Tue, 24 Jan 2012 13:56:48 +0000 PearlBee 57793@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm more social, for sure. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-socializes-more-often-you-or-your-so#post-57783 Tue, 24 Jan 2012 13:52:20 +0000 chopsuey 57783@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Hurmm.. I'd say we both go out (socially) equally. DH definitely meets up with more people and gets out more though (all business related). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-socializes-more-often-you-or-your-so#post-57781 Tue, 24 Jan 2012 13:51:01 +0000 tequiero21 57781@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>we don't really go out much, like @artbee - usually go out together. but, i definitely go out more than he does, which isn't much....i'm sure when we have our babies, i'll need to go out more than he does, so it will probably still be me. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-socializes-more-often-you-or-your-so#post-57685 Tue, 24 Jan 2012 12:48:51 +0000 heffalump 57685@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Neither of us. We rarely go out without the other person, we'll just bring our LO with us. But I guess I would go out with my girl friends more than he goes out with the guys. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-socializes-more-often-you-or-your-so#post-57672 Tue, 24 Jan 2012 12:40:10 +0000 jennylynn 57672@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Hubs for sure. I've always been somewhat of a loner, and I'm usually fine doing my own thing. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-socializes-more-often-you-or-your-so#post-57666 Tue, 24 Jan 2012 12:34:19 +0000 LuLu Mom 57666@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We are equally social, I have a close group of friends that gets together once a month for dinner/drinks/concert/ect. to catch up. Husband goes to sporting events and has season tickets with 6 friends to UNL basketball. When we go out together it's usually douple/triple dates with friends to dinner or game night. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-socializes-more-often-you-or-your-so#post-57646 Tue, 24 Jan 2012 12:12:42 +0000 lavender 57646@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The hubs is the social one, I'm a hermit and a recluse. haha If I do go out its about once or twice a month and usually its for coffee or lunch with friends. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-socializes-more-often-you-or-your-so#post-57613 Tue, 24 Jan 2012 11:47:39 +0000 Rescuemom10 57613@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think we both are pretty social. We always seem to have the house that everyone wants to come to or have a get together at. We host so many holidays and events it seems. Almost feels like if something isnt going on , we plan something.<br /> But recently DH has been going out with the guys from work a lot. I also work with them, so I go out sometimes too, but sometimes just let him get out to have that "guy" time. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-socializes-more-often-you-or-your-so#post-57584 Tue, 24 Jan 2012 11:24:19 +0000 Pepper 57584@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We're equally social, but I probably spend more time with my friends because DH works longer hours at his job. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-socializes-more-often-you-or-your-so#post-57574 Tue, 24 Jan 2012 11:14:13 +0000 Adira 57574@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm definitely the more social one. My husband only really socializes with people when I force him to. I have a best friend (who has a daughter) and the two of them come over to our house twice a month to hang out. Then I hang out with my brother twice a month as well. Add in a couple going out to dinner (or to get pedis) with other girlfriends a couple times a month.</p> <p>I don't have kids yet, so we'll see how that changes once I do. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-socializes-more-often-you-or-your-so#post-57566 Tue, 24 Jan 2012 11:09:00 +0000 mediagirl 57566@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Definitely me. He's social at work but once he leaves work, he's ready to call it a night at home unless he's going out with me. I try to see friends once or twice a month. I'm admittedly lazy, though... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-socializes-more-often-you-or-your-so#post-57540 Tue, 24 Jan 2012 10:57:04 +0000 Mrs. Pickle 57540@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We are both pretty social. But our closest friends all live hours away. So we stay home a lot. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-socializes-more-often-you-or-your-so#post-57533 Tue, 24 Jan 2012 10:54:33 +0000 twodoghouse 57533@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We mostly go out together. We have our core group (4 couples) that we see once or twice a week, then other groups that we see once or twice a month. In general, though, I am much more extroverted than my husband. (We don't have kids, though, so I'm not sure how this will change in the future). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-socializes-more-often-you-or-your-so#post-57522 Tue, 24 Jan 2012 10:46:28 +0000 MrsBrewer 57522@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Definitely DH, he needs interaction with his friends. I am more of a homebody. I really should start hanging out with friends though more often, and I have been saying that I would. But it's just hard with working full time and school. I can't imagine having a baby with all of this! I wouldn't have any friends! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-socializes-more-often-you-or-your-so#post-57488 Tue, 24 Jan 2012 10:14:03 +0000 winniebee 57488@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Me - my husband has to work late and on weekends so he has fewer opportunities to socialize. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-socializes-more-often-you-or-your-so#post-57479 Tue, 24 Jan 2012 10:05:05 +0000 lilteacherbee 57479@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We're both homebodies, but now its mainly because we live an hour from all our friends. I drive 45 min to work in that direction, so I'm closer to them when I get off work. I will usually meet a friend or two for lunch/dinner once a week. DH's is more like once a month because he works a lot of nights and is always an hour from his friends. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-socializes-more-often-you-or-your-so#post-57477 Tue, 24 Jan 2012 10:04:19 +0000 Rubies 57477@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The hubs. Whenever our friends are meeting up, I always send the hubs to represent us. He's less tired and more social than I am so he's the better person to go out. When I need to get out, though, the hubs always sends me on my way. I don't really miss socializing...I miss my alone time (reading in coffee shops, window shopping, etc.) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-socializes-more-often-you-or-your-so#post-57469 Tue, 24 Jan 2012 10:01:07 +0000 prettylizy 57469@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We're both homebodies, but DH probably spends more time with his buddies than I do with mine. They watch sports and play COD together every week or so. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-socializes-more-often-you-or-your-so#post-57465 Tue, 24 Jan 2012 09:59:46 +0000 Andrea 57465@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Me. If DH goes out at night, it is always for a work dinner. He is too lazy to maintain personal friendships. I go out 2-3x a month with my girlfriends. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-socializes-more-often-you-or-your-so#post-57462 Tue, 24 Jan 2012 09:58:43 +0000 MH.Abroad 57462@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Most certainly my husband. He is VERY social, makes friends instantly with everyone he meets. I only have two close friends, and one lives in MI and the other in VA. So my social interaction is 90% online. Which is sad, I know. Maybe when I move to FL in the Summer I can make some Mommy friends. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-socializes-more-often-you-or-your-so#post-57457 Tue, 24 Jan 2012 09:56:13 +0000 Mrs. Bee 57457@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It's very hard to go out with friends now that we have two kids (and since Olive is still fighting the bottle), but pre Olive I would go out 2-3 times a month to hang out with friends. Usually dinner or something fun like a concert.</p> <p>Mr. Bee didn't go out as frequently as I did. When he did, it was usually brunch with a friend. But I work from home and never see anyone, so I think I need a little more social stimulation. And since getting a babysitter is too much work/costly, most of the time we socialized separately while the other stayed home with Charlie.</p> <p>Who goes out more often with friends in your household? </p>
