Love Q&A: Can You Bring Your Guy Along On A Girls Night?

Q.

My girlfriends and I always get together on Friday nights, but I haven't seen my husband much lately. Can I bring him along?

A.

In a word, no. "Having your guy join in would be unappealing to your friends and your guy-he'll feel like a thrid wheel," notes Colleen Thompson, 29, of Colchester, CT, who has been married for five years. "Going out with the girls is totally different dynamic," adds Boston newlywed Anna Hartman*, 29 "I think my friends and I would agree that it should be just us hanging out." What's the easiest way to remedy this dilemma? Bail on this week's mojito-fest and hang out with your husband instead, then rejoin the girls next week.
