[QUOTE]Originally posted by Karybu: [QB] You're absolutely right that asking if this is normal isn't a terribly helpful framework, because for some people, not spending much time with their partner's friends is something that works. I'm not even sure that asking if this is healthy would net you the information you're looking for (because again, if a setup like the one you're describing was one that both partners had agreed on mutually and were happy with, then in all likelihood it would be healthy). What I am hearing though is that this situation may not be healthy in the context of [i]your[/i] relationship, because it sounds like you have a lot of concerns about not interacting with his friends much, and those concerns tie into other problems you've had within the relationship in the past. So, based on that alone, it is something that needs to be talked about. When you say you've expressed feeling isolated from people that matter to him before, has there been a really good conversation about it, or has it been more of a comment in passing? What has his response usually been? [/QB][/QUOTE]
