have to say, i think it depends on the couple- I am so glad that since i separated over a year ago, from the start, all my couple freinds still invite me to EVERYTHING- i went to things even when i was the only single person there and was happy for the company of my pals.

they are my friends regardless of whether we are all couples or not and they accept invites to things here too.
I guess it was more because i was the common denominator in our friendships- ie. i made the connections and nurtured them, so why wouldn't i still be in touch with themdunno 'he' could be in touch if he wanted, but isn't,-

the way we are, I would be fine with it if my friends( or their husbands) were still friendly with my ex but he doesn't seem to want that))

As it is... my friends are all happy to meet my new partner and glad to see that he makes me happyyay

Totally agree Steph....

For example if at a house party....a woman who once was the best of friends with you, will try to without you noticing pull her partner away from you if he is chatting to you.....

feel happy that your friends see you as just that..a friend- they love you and trust you- you may be desperate or not for a mate, but they realise that you would not break the trust that you have.

Rather than worrying about it, you, and me, should feel honoured that we have true friends that hold our friendship above our relationship is- I have no problem with them being friends with my ex, as long as our friendship remains intact too. because we are sepaRATED, WE SHOULD NOT STOP BEING CIVIL, COMPASSIONATE HUMAN BEINGS.... oops sorry about capsblushing

On reflection, I`ve never felt anything but love and support from my friends, in fact I may have taken it for granted. They never took sides either which I appreciate.

So true Alison but when i became a widow, there were some friends who shy away from askin me to join them incase i would run away with their partner!!! But i also had some great friends who made sure i didnt get left out just because my husband had died and i was seen a single again.......but it did show me who my true friends were and who was in a secure relationships.
