I know about the division of chores, having live with other people, but to put the very existence of a social life on someone else is just ridiculous. I am sure your wife knows you very well (certainly more than I, a random Internet stranger), but are there no people you are on friend terms with, simply due to shared special interest? Like a particular video game, or some craft? I firmly believe that in today's digital age, meeting people online who eventually become friends, and who share a particular interest is just part of the rich and varied tapestry we call life.
