I have a problem also. my wife is very shy in social settings and the more people who are there, the quieter she gets. When we are out with friends(another couple) she is fine and interacts well but if we go to one of Prosequences off the hook parties she sort of stands back and lets it flow around her. I on the other hand tend to be the "life" of the party, laughing, drinking, engaging in all sorts of different conversations. She can find it intimidating that I get on so well and she can't seem to get enough nerve to get more involved. She is bright, beautiful and charming but far too shy.
I encourage her to go out with friends and she sometimes does but I feel quite guilty going out with my friends( coffee or dinner, I don't like bars much) and leaving her home. We go out together as often as possible(3 kids) and enjoy each others company a lot but sometimes you need time with friends, not often but every once in a while.
enjoy yourself, your wife and your friends in any combination Sapiens.
