Husband bored of me?

Hiya, 1st time posting here. Hoping I could get some advice please x

Basically, my husband is obsessed with the idea of constantly hanging around with other couples, mainly in a drinking setting. He’s always moaning that it’s boring staying in on a weekend when we don’t have the kids ( they sleep over my mums occasionally ). The problem is, he’s very flirty and it ends up me just watching him and ( x ) friend chatting and flirting all night. I’ve obviously bought this up with him before and he’s just said he’s being nice because they’re my friends.

I’m not unsociable at all, but there’s been a few instances in the past where I think he’s crossed the line with his flirting and it’s kind of just put me off the idea. He’ll just come out with something like ‘ I don’t fancy them, why does it matter’. Or ‘We’re just having a laugh’.

It’s always my friends and partners he wants to meet, never his own, he just says he sees them enough at the gym or playing football, so isn’t interested in meeting them anymore.

He’s never cheated before or anything like that, but it just feels like he’s bored of me sometimes, and if I keep not wanting to meet other couples, our relationship may start to down spiral.

Any advice on what to do would be appreciated, other than the generic ‘leave him’ which I see on so many other posts. Thank you,

M x

I cannot abide flirty men and this would make my blood boil. You are basically avoiding social situations because your husband is a juvenile, disrespectful dick.

Oh bin him. He's vile.

That’s exactly what is happening. Even if he is telling the truth and he doesn’t fancy them, I find that even more strange, flirting / trying to get attention from people you’re not attracted too.
