Why do all of his social outings have to also be your social outings?

"This week we were supposed to go see Jones friend Alan and his wife Friday, go celebrate my step dad's birthday on Saturday, go to Jones moms on Monday, have Chris over Tuesday..."

I'll admit my boyfriend is quite a bit more social than I am. Sometimes he will plan numerous events without telling me, and expect me to go with him. But I've learned that I don't have to. It is perfectly okay for me to say, "Okay baby, have fun with your friends, I'll see you when you get home!" Or if he invites people over, it's perfectly okay for me to say, "I'm tired, I'm going to bed," and retire to my quiet bedroom. Or its okay for me to say, "I'm going out, I'll be back in a few hours," and just go wander around the city for a while so I can have some me-time while he has guests over. I don't feel obligated to play hostess for his friends; HE is the one that invited them over, and HE should be the one hosting. In the beginning, I felt obligated to play hostess because I didn't want his friends seeing our house in its usual messy state. But after cleaning for like the upteenth get-together that I hadn't even planned, I was like, "know what? If he wants to invite people into our messy house and he doesn't want to clean beforehand, fuck it. This apartment is lived in, it looks lived in, I shouldn't have to make it immaculate every time someone comes over, especially if they aren't even my guest." And guess what? Nobody cared or even seemed to notice.

Could you possibly just dip out of social events you aren't interested in? Even if he says he feels obligated to do these things for his friends doesn't mean you should feel obligated too.
