I think its interesting that your H wants to spend time with other versus his own. I cant quite figure out why. It may have to do with not having any of the responsibility but just being able to enjoy the fun part of being with a kid.
My H was doing something similar. We have a 2 yr old daughter who is truly the cutest little girl ever, she is a doll. (I am totally not biased) But yet my H couldnt stop telling me about his friends daughter who was the same age and how cute she was. I found it strange -- almost this disconnect.
