Personally, I have no problem with him going away without me for a few days. I start to get a little uncomfortable if he’s going away with people I don’t really know.
Oh, I should have mentioned – We do travel together at least once or twice a year (sometimes just the two of us, sometimes with friends, sometimes with family).
These are just the long weekend vacations that he sometimes take with his buddies.
I wouldn’t have fun on a vacation if he weren’t by my side.
doesn’t stop people from having sex just because their spouse is gone for a week or so….lol
I would Never allow it
I would never want to go on a separate vacation.
The point of a vacation is to “get away from it all”. But I wouldn’t want one without her.
It has nothing to do with trust. I would have her right next to me 24/7 if I could.
We have gone away separately for trips – business or family – separately before, but never by choice – just by circumstance.
To each their own. I have been married for ten years and have never seen a reason for us to go vacationing separately. We love one another, we enjoy each others company, we got married so we could enjoy life together. We wouldn’t be married if we thought it was appropriate to do things apart. What would be the point?
I think it’s ok if it’s appropiate..if you both had an arguement or something major a time out from each other might be good for the both of them..but to go on separate vacations..i wouldn’t see that happening…my hubby and i are very close, we wouldn’t see a point to separate vacations…i mean he goes out with his friends (i know them also) for a weekend trip but that’s about it. I would be uncomfortable also if he went out with people i don’t know.
a few days on a golf or fishing trip is fine. but why would he not take you on other trips? Is your job an issue? do you not like going to same places as him?
The wife and I take separate vacations every year. She takes a week to 10 days and flies back to visit her family. I have no interest in visiting them. The same for me. Spent a few days visiting family a few times a year. We also spend time together. Seems to work just fine. I think it is nice to have some of my own time.
I don’t have a problem with it. There are situations when a separate vacation is a good solution, and it’s fine with me. I have family in another country, and it’s expensive to go back there to visit; my husband prefers going with me, but sometimes it makes more sense for me to go by myself. Neither my husband nor I have “buddies” that we go away with – whenever we go someplace without each other, it’s for a practical, not a social, reason. I would not be comfortable being married to a social butterfly who is surrounded by “buddies” and would rather hang out with them than with me.
I think it’s an excellent idea.
As long as you’re having couple holidays too.
That sounds weird to me. Neither my husband or I would be interested in that – we get along well and enjoy spending our time together.
Me and my wife had our first experience at an adult vacations resort in the Caribbean island of Dominican Republic at an all inclusive resort called charlisangels.
