Would you see friends less if your partner asks?
Your partner finally admits that your best friend wears them out, and they ask for fewer group weekends. They are not telling you to drop anyone. But the friendship is old and the weekends matter. You can keep things as they are and trust your partner to cope, or adjust and show that their comfort counts. Both are ways of choosing who you are loyal to.

Why people pick each side
Keep the friendship at full volume
Keeping the friendship at full volume leans Loyalty: you honour a bond that was there first, and you do not renegotiate it under pressure.
Adjust, their comfort counts too
Adjusting leans Openness: you listen when someone you love says something hard, and you are willing to change how things look to keep both relationships healthy.
