EA, being "friends" with OW, and Boundaries

[NikB]

Replying to my own posts again... what I meant above is that H is really uncomfortable with OW being along when we're out with our older, more established friends. Usually plans that involve her tend to be with "newer" friends, I notice. So I may be able to accomplish a lot by setting things up with some of our older friends - help him re-connect to them (he's been really talking a lot about losing touch with them), do a 180 by encouraging us to go out with 'groups' and doing the inviting/planning for it, help me reclaim some of my own friendships, and to top it off - set up a fun event where he doesn't WANT OW there. I will definitely add this to my list of things to try!
