1. Are you saying you would go if someone pays your airfare and hotel and rental car, or are you saying you would split?
2. What about museums and/or zoos? Do you need someone who would pay your admission or would you pay your own admission?
I think if you clarified your post then maybe you would get more responses. |
This is so bizzare and rude. Why would you assume such a thing??? There is no way her OP could be read to mean that she wants someone to pay for her trip.

Going on vacation alone can be extremely relaxing and fulfilling. We are so used to being with and needing people to go with- try and picture yourself going just with YOU!
You get to do what you like most, have time to really think about your life, and of course come back missing your loved ones. It's thrilling, actually, not to need anyone and just do what you would love to do.
I just did it and it was my most amazing trip ever. I chose somewhere I already knew from before- so I could just enjoy what I love most.
Try it- it will be unforgettable!!!

it has nothing to do with being nice or not - basic english should be understood and not crazy notions presumed
& rules say do NOT insult as 'amother'

Put those two facts together w the fact that we have two children in Shidduchim. Now my friends asked me to join them on a road trip for two nights. Nothing expensive. He thought it's weird to go overnight with friends. Then I noticed the ad for project Inspire shabbos I said that I would love to go. He dislikes speeches. So I said I would go w my mom. Oh wow! It would have been nice if he would have said that he would miss me over shabbos or feel incomplete w/ o me. That was not the case. Back to it's weird!!!
What do u ladies think? Is it so weird? I think we all need girl time? Pj party!! |
My dh is like that too. I so needed a vacation once, I said I'm going to my sister and going on vacation the 2 of us. He thought it was rude. (So I Guess it's a bit different, but I didn't do it and I still regret it years later )
He also thinks it's weird if we don't go together places. Like my sister was having something on shabbos, I wanted to go there. He hates going there, so I said you go to your parents with some kids and I go there with some, he thought everyone would talk about our sholom bayis (which is fine thank you. ..)
Oh well , I've learnt to just do it so I don't resent him:) and he realized we can be very happily married even if we don't do everything together.

the best relationships are when each individual has their own mind & then the 2 can come together as a complete whole
going on vacation alone makes a lot of sense ... no less than going to a football game without one's wife

I love your graphics!! I can feel the warmth of the party as I type this in the freezing snow on my computer.
hey,,,wishful thinking aint so bad if its all you got, right?
No one answered my question yet. Is it really so weird to go overnight with some girlfriends just for a break? Does that automatically mean ones marriage is rocky or whatever pple say?!!!
Anyway as far as I am concerned if what I am doing is halachakilly permissible and not that socially awkward, I
don;t care what pple say..but, DH does!!

you don't like my answer ...
no it's not weird
it does not mean your marriage is on the rocks
it means you are 2 people with different needs - at times - other times you intertwine

oh I just saw that some of you really get me! Phew...at least that is a relief! I am so annoyed that I did not register for the project inspire Shabbos. I know that it would have given me a lot of "inspiration". I should have given him the option of coming and not going to the speeches or going to my married son for Shabbos. Why must I give in all the time? We are individuals and a couple, as "greenfire"said! I need to learn how to express my individuality without it coming across as arrogant or disrespectful of his. Any suggestion of how to do this?

What insult by me? Opinionated is the one who was insulted. I am sure she can read and write basic English. Perhaps she doesn't pick up on social cues and we should be kinder to her because of it.
If someone presumes crazy notions, should someone wonder why and be kinder or should be just go and hurt someone?

There's plenty of supermarket takeout, I just prefer being waited on.
