You can ignore this or try to resolve it. Asking what’s going on, in a curious rather than accusing way, is a brave thing to do but it will be clarifying
My husband and I have been married for five years. I have a close group of female friends and previously we have got along with them and their husbands. However, recently, the other husbands have excluded my husband from social gatherings. I feel that one of them, let’s call him Roger, purposely excludes him and I don’t know why. I’ve also seen Roger being rude to my husband.
I’ve asked him if he could think of anything he’d done to annoy Roger, and he said he couldn’t. I suggested he reach out to Roger to talk it out, which he did. However, Roger’s response was: “Let the women folk plan out the activities.” To me that seems he’s saying: “I don’t want to hang out with you on your own.” My husband is hurt by this.
