I’m a big proponent of regular girl time. When it’s just me and my girls, something comes alive inside of me. I try to take at least two girls trips a year—just estrogen-filled weekends, away from our relationships and responsibilities—and I always come back feeling inspired, refreshed, and overall warm and tingly. Great things happen when women get together, and leave the men out. But those great things can’t happen if you’re the friend who always brings your man to girl’s night (or girl’s weekend!) If you do this, and are wondering if your friends notice—they do. If you’re wondering if it bothers them, it kind of does. It has nothing to do with how much they love or don’t love your man—I bet they adore him! But girls’ time is sacred. If you bring your man to girls’ night, here’s what your friends want to say to you.
Hey, everybody wants to be with their man
Hey, for the record, they love being with their boos, too! It wasn’t easy for them to pull themselves out of the snuggle (or sex) and leave their love nest for girls’ night. If you think you can bring your man because you’re more attached to him than your friends are to theirs, that simply isn’t true.
