Is he sort of taking all of the attention from your friends? Because if he's not, I don't see the problem. I have a small number of friends that I actually care about, because I'm not a hugely socially-dependent person. Your boyfriend may be the same way, and as a result I have to say you're probably screwed on the reciprocity level. I doubt that he's benefitting as much from this arrangement as you think he is, or that you are missing out on as much as you think you are.
