Re: Separate Vacations?
she must not love her kids enough then.
that is actually not true...:(
Re: Separate Vacations?
hahaha
she must not love her kids so much if she decides to spend time on herself..?
I'm not talking about kids kids mind you
I'm talking about 18+yr olds that can take care of themselves.
is it child abuse if they leave them and have a bit of fun?
Re: Separate Vacations?
Wow...
I think it depends on the person! Not everyone can be pigeonholed into the cookie-cutter relationship, and lot of people love having their space and alone time as well as their together & up close time. I think it's important, for a well rounded person, to get to know themselves in different scenarios and situations. Personally, I would love to take a solo vacation.
Re: Separate Vacations?
I personally think that everyone needs space in their relationship sometime. This is to say, that you don't love your spouse or anything. Personally, i would let my wife take vacation with her friends if she wants. And i would take vacation with my friends as well. I find nothing wrong in that concept.
Re: Separate Vacations?
^I agree.
lol, husband and wife taking vacations separately..lol, the idea is just too strange for my liking.
Re: Separate Vacations?
I think it would be strange if someone DIDN'T want to take a vacation separately.
For me, I like space and an opportunity to miss my SO. Sometimes, being alone to recharge your battery or relax is exactly what you need to do better in life.
As for mothers...I think a happy parent is a good parent. There's nothing wrong with a woman wanting to take a break from her kids for a breather...I actually think mothers dont get to do this enough.

hmm interesting responses
We are talking abt vacations here. Now there is a difference between a weekend/night out with the girls or guys, and going on a solo 2 week trip to Hawai with your pals. That's just flat out weird and you are in denial about your relationship if you think otherwise. What's next, showing up at the office holiday party with your BFF?

Interesting you mention that--when separate vacations comes up, weekends, 2-3 day trips a few times a year comes to my mind...I realze this could be a different definition for many.
But also, how often is that 2-week trip with friends? I can understand if it's with friends who are scattered around the country/world and get together every year/every few years.
