I guess I'd say by addressing the root issue that's causing problems around you having friendships outside of the relationship.

Also, who are these friends you're wanting in your life? Are they exes.. single people wanting to "connect"? Etc..

Is there a balance? Do you both have mutual friends within this marriage, as well? Does your spouse have his/her own friends? If not, is it a preference?

Are you happy in this marriage or looking outside to fill a void, even just emotionally?

Does your spouse like these people? If not, why? Are they reasonable? Etc
