He doesn't trust me

I think that you should introduce your boyfriend to your friends so when you see them, he won't wonder where you are and who you are seeing.  Take him once to meet your friends and he'll feel good about it.  If you tell him you're going to see Mary or Betty, give him their cell phones.  After he sees that you are actually just seeing your close friends, he probably won't have an issue with it.  I think any man will wonder about this if you don't introduce your friends.  Hopefully you know his friends too.

     Another option is to invite your friends to his house and just have dinner with them.  Ask them to bring something for a potluck.  That would be fun.

     I think rushing into marriage is not a bright idea.  You need to know him better.  I do think 2 years is enough time to know if he is controlling or what.  It's hard to tell if he's actually controlling just by that incident.

    I think that he will be more comfortable and will trust you more if he knows your friends too.

    Getting married is a great thing but you need to marry a good one this time with the idea that this will be for good.  Take care and be patient with him.

Hi,
My friend Dogbreeder gave you, as she always does, an excellent answer (gave her 2 thumbs up).  Any good relation is based on 4 pillars: Trust + Openess + Respect + Communication.   Sure there it is a problem if you lake at least two of those pillars.  Best you can (and should) do is build the trust between the 2 of you..... (and Dogbreeder gave you several good ideas).  "The silent treatment" is just the opposite of open true communication.... and it's a very bad sign....  Don't rush to marry him, better make sure he is the right one 4U.
Best regards, 

Have you tried inviting him along?  It does sound like he's insecure, but considering that you admit spending every waking moment with him, maybe he doesnt have friends of his own and is a bit jealous of the fun you're having.  I'm not saying it isnt okay to have time to yourself with your friends, but having him along could be fun too.  Like OronD said tho, don't jump into being married to this guy until you can work this out and figure out this particular (and any other you can work out) problem in your relationship.  You've just been through a messy divorce, and if this guy is controlling, insecure, and afraid you'll leave him you'll be headed straight for another one if you marry him too soon.

You don't say whether your boy friend and your friends have ever socialized together. Try it, and see if it can't be done in a arrangement that involves "couples." Perhaps that will loosen him up and lessen his doubts and fears which in all likelihood stem from some thing painful in his past.

Liken it to being afraid of the "BOOGIEMAN," with a child. Once you've put the fear to rest(it does take time) the fear will eventually subside.
