Dear Steve and Shirley, I've been married for two years, and I'm 25 years old. My husband is 26, and he pursued me heavily until I let him take me out. We had a great first date and he told me that he loved me. I fell for him really quick and we got married in no time. He lived out in the suburbs and I had an apartment downtown. So he stayed with me mostly before we got married. Right before the wedding, I moved in with him, and I met three other married couples in his neighborhood. They were all professional men, and they loved to golf, mainly because it was a status thing for them. And I asked my fiancee at the time why he never mentioned these friends. And he said they're his neighborhood friends. And he didn't really hang out with them because he was single. I got upset and asked him if he was rushing into marriage to fit in. He said, absolutely not, and I did not nag him about it. Fast forward to present day and we've been married for two years. My husband thinks it's okay to hang out with his neighborhood friends every Friday and Saturday night. It's fine if they're in the backyard or in one of their man caves, but they like to go to the city to hang out. I'm the only wife in the group that has a problem with it. One of the wives told me that as soon as I start getting tired of my husband, I will look forward to him hanging out at night. My husband said that I'm making us look bad as a unit because I'm always calling around complaining about him being out. I don't like that they let their husbands do whatever they want to do, and I hope it doesn't rub off on my husband....
