My husband seems happy only when he is with his friends. The minute he is not around them, he is a different person.

Would you mind elaborating a bit, like how his friends are, how the two of you are together?

First, let him relax and be himself. He enjoys his friends and it's healthy--don't consider them competition.

As for you, work on being more of a friend to your husband. Easier said than done I know, but find common interests and activities you like. Good luck.

Why can't you go enjoy your friends?
