Ok: You - hang out on the couch, silent, watch a movie

Friends - laughing, joking, probably drinking, bonding...

Do you see the difference? How can you make being with YOU more attractive than being with THEM?

You might get him the book Hold On To Your N.U.T.S. if he will read it. It's directly about men realizing that they owe a certain amount of their time to their wife and kids and that, once they ensure they do provide that time, then they can go out and also have fun with the boys. But the family has to come first.
