Normal or a bit weird? Friendship

[Eyepatchannie]

Is this scenario a little strange or is it completely normal?

I know two women - both have husbands and kids (although most of the ‘kids’ are adults now). They see each other every day after work and meet up on weekends. They regularly go on weekends away together. They very rarely do anything without each other - eg one will have plans with her husband and will invite the other one along. They sometimes meet up in groups of mutual friends but then walk around together away from the group talking in hushed tones. Mostly they meet up just the two of them though. When they’re not together they’re messaging very often.

I’m just wondering what other people’s thoughts on this are? Would it even strike you as odd? Maybe it’s just an intense friendship but my OH said the other day he wouldn’t be happy if I was spending that much time with a friend and it got me thinking that I’d probably feel the same.

Some people just have intense friendships. It doesn’t mean they are having an affair or there is anything worth speculating about. It’s rude to meet up with others and exclude them by whispering away from the group though. I agree with PP that the friendship will probably implode at some point.

It’s not just my DHs comment - others have commented recently and I myself have questioned it but not every said it out loud. I just think I’ve put myself in the husbands position and thought I’d hate it if every time I went out with DH his friend was invited. If every time we went away somewhere for the weekend his friend was invited (and they went on additional weekends away without me). If DHs friend was always at our house. It’s a bit much.

And Skybluepinkgiraffe exactly this!

I don’t understand why you’re bothered. They are all happy so it’s really none of your business.
