my dh has a group of friends from when he was at school who he keeps in contact with a few times a year, they have girlfriends/wives but are all childless.
since our ds was born (10 months ago) none of them bothered to send a card or visit us, even though we said you'll have to come and see ds.
last july one of the couples were getting married and invited everyone over for a bbq before the big day, we thought it would be nice to take ds to so they could all meet him, they sent dh a text to say as non of the others could make it they were going to cancel it!
my dh went out for a drink with a few of them last night, i didn't go because i felt cross with them that they hadn't bothered, why should i, which isn't very supportive of me to my dh but it just gets to me.
should we invite them all over for a coffee one afternoon maybe before folk get back to work or should i just leave it and carry on leaving dh to go out for a drink with them?
