Comments on: Is Vacation without a Spouse Healthy? http://geniusbeauty.com/men-and-women/vacation-without-spouse-healthy/ Magazine for Beautiful Women Thu, 24 May 2012 07:31:30 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.2 By: Ryan http://geniusbeauty.com/men-and-women/vacation-without-spouse-healthy/#comment-487747 Ryan Fri, 10 Jun 2011 07:29:16 +0000 http://geniusbeauty.com/?p=10421#comment-487747 my wife recently took a cruise with her sister and failed to tell me about until 3 days before. Not 100% her fault as her sister had planned to go with her boyfriend (who dumped her as soon as she got home) but it DID NOT help our relationship in any way at all. Her and I had planned to relive our honeymoon for years, she did exactly that, without me. Further more we are extremely limited on money and we had reserved a trip to celebrate my birthday just two weeks after her luxury cruise. She got a week, I got 3 days. Her going 100% ruined my trip, my trust in her, and drove a wedge between my sister in law and myself. We haven't spoken since and honestly, I hope I never have too. Ladies, if you are planning a trip without your husband and it's something he would want to do, don't. While she was away I had the divorce papers drafted. I decided against that but her going on that cruise, her reliving our honeymoon without me, not being able to enjoy my own trip, all of it have all but destroyed us. It's been a few months now and not a day goes by that I have not been reminded of how bad that hurt. If you marry someone, you should WANT to spend time with them. Up until the trip our marriage was solid, now we are on the brink of divorce, counseling isn't working, and I can't get past it. Even after taking a trip on my own didn't help, it only reminded me of how bad she hurt me. my wife recently took a cruise with her sister and failed to tell me about until 3 days before.

Ladies, if you are planning a trip without your husband and it’s something he would want to do, don’t. While she was away I had the divorce papers drafted. I decided against that but her going on that cruise, her reliving our honeymoon without me, not being able to enjoy my own trip, all of it have all but destroyed us. It’s been a few months now and not a day goes by that I have not been reminded of how bad that hurt.

A couple things: Why would I have married my wife if I didn't want to be with her, and vice versa? With all the routine chaos of normal life (kids, work, etc), vacation together is one of the only times we get to really talk in depth and examine our lives together. I can see why some time alone is important. But there's plenty of time to work that out back at the homestead. If we're dropping cash on a vacation let's use it to build a stronger relationship.
