My husband works hard, he gets on well with work mates when at work!

The problem is he goes to work comes home and that is it.

He was close to his uncle but he passed away last year, he was the one he would go for a pint with, now and then.

He gets on well with his Dad, they would go fishing together but now that has fizzled out too! My huband does not get on with his brother, they barely speak when they have too. His father and brother seem to be spending more and more time together ( they only live 2 doors apart and are both single) I think this must bother my husband, but he never says anything.

I feel guilty when i go out with my friends, we have a couple we are friends with a few doors away and been out with them so I'm going to try and keep that going ,we all get along great.

Husband just works, watches Tv, potters outside, how can i get him more sociable, find an interest hobby.

Was thinking of talking to my fil about it but not sure if I should, they do get along great, but lately I've been thinking he's forgot he has 2 sons.

you cannot. he neds to do it for himself.

if he is happy how he is then no problem.

if he is unhappy and wants to do something about it you can support him.

if his behaviour is affecting you (eg does he complain when you go out with your friends? if he doesnt then dont feel guilty!) then you need to decide what you want to do yourself

needs to do it himself - he is a grown man

No, he never complains, the guilt is on my part.
