Our wives want to be there, but we guys feel very uncomfortable.
I’m married, and in my mid-40s. My wife and I have a robust social life, for which we both feel very lucky and blessed.Dear Abby: Our door latch has become a huge issue, and I’m ready to leave my marriage
We’ve talked about it among the guys and agree this is a tough situation. We’ve had conversations with our wives about feeling uncomfortable, and we all got similar responses, like “Well, then don’t come.”She really enjoys going to clubs with her friends and I don’t want her to stop enjoying her life. I also understand she feels safer in those environments when I’m around.
I arrived at the agreed-upon time, actually early, and expected to find them waiting in the lobby for me. They were nowhere to be seen, so I texted my friend several times to tell her I was there and to ask where they were. I was angry. I thought it was poor etiquette since I was right on time. At least they could have waited to order and start eating. I repeat: I was not late.I think your friends were rude. It certainly didn’t make you feel welcome.I don’t blame you for being reluctant to dine with those two again. If you did, there’s no guarantee you wouldn’t be treated the same way.
