Is it common for couples to have mutual friends or each have their own set of friends?
My g/f and I have been together almost 6 years and we pretty much have our own friends, whom which we really don't hang out with, but have maybe a few mutual friends. Is this an issue for us furthering out relationship? Or do you think mutual friends will come in due time?

its ok you and her have different friends for now^^ you can meet her friends better and she can meet your friends better and hang out together^^ thats important that you also meet her friends and she meets yours^^ but is ok if you hang out with them without her so that way you have a bit of space in your relation also^^ thats needed in all relations^^

Mutual friends will come eventually as long as you can stand each other's friends. My husband and I have some of our own friends but mostly our friends are mutual (his friends from work). I'm not really a social person and I tend to have issues with trusting and therefore making friends. Plus I think friends can be too needy at times so I don't really search out my own friends. If you like having separate friends it is always good in case the relationship doesn't work out. This way you don't have to split the friends along with everything else.
