Should I go camping without my husband?

mary o

I know girl that is might hurt you or make you sad that your husband is to busy to do anything. But you need to understand him just alittle bit. He is working to make you and others feel better he is working to provide what is needed.
but your husband needs to also understands you too cause it is not fair that you have to go out again without him and you need attention. but if he is working all the time....
I say girl talk to him again try to see if he would at least fix something with his job. so that he can get to go. You too deserve to be happy and to enjoy it.
if your husband do not go girl i will tell you to go
You need to get out and explore nature it will do you good it would do your hubby good too but since he is not going then you go and enjoy yourself you need to give that to yourself hey at least your husband lets you go out and don't feel offended if you go.

so be happy and communicate

If you want to go without him, GO! If he doesn't care and you don't there isn't a problem. I realize he should be there.......but you shouldn't put your life on hold to sit home and do nothing while he is working.

What's the REAL reason he won't go?

Tell him he needs to make time for you. But DON'T stay home.

did you try telling him you would really like him to come? tell him how you really feel about him not joining you! if not, i guess, go w/o him!!! Hope he decides to go w/ you tho!!! Good luck!

I wouldn't want my g/f or wife going on a camping trip alone, even if I told her I don't care. I would rather have her organize another camping trip for the two of us alone, or with some friends I'd like to go with.

Go and enjoy yourself. Time doesn't wait for anyone.

Timmy!!!

By all means, go.

Tell your Husband that you are looking forward to him going,and would love to have him join you. If he don't wanna go, let him know it's never too late for him to change his mind and have a great time. Before you leave on your trip, bring up that you hope next time he will be able to go. ~Have a Great Trip~

I think its entirely up to you if your in laws can accept the fact hes a busy man and he couldn't make it you should go. But if you know they'll ask question about your husband and be sort of mad he didn't come again and you wont have as much as fun with your husband tell your husband that. And think it twice.

Maybe he can go for part of the trip, the first part, on the last half? Sounds like it just happened that his work load was heavy during the times of the camping trip. Of course since it is his parents it would be better if he went, but it sounds like you have a good relationship with them for it to not be awkward.

I think that you should definately force the issue somewhat with your husband to get him to go along for this trip. You say that he likes camping and it is his family that arranged this trip to begin with. Perhaps there is something about this trip that bothers your husband and that is why he is using work as an excuse not to go, perhaps he has had an issue with someone that is going on this trip?
Husbands and wives sometimes forget how to court each other, they think that once you get married that you have to stop going on dates and buying flowers and doing the things you did when you were dating...every married couple makes that mistake from time to time, so it is so important to spend as much time getting to know each other more, going away together, going out to dinner, your spouse does not stop growing just because you got married, there are still so many things to learn about the person you chose to spend the rest of your life with and dont think that just because you have your whole lives to get to know each other that this one weekend doesnt count...every moment counts that you have with that person!
There is no greater joy than to learn and explore new things with your spouse, so sit him down and get to the bottom of the matter about why he really doesnt want to go and then remind him that each day together is a blessing, each means one more day that you have survived as a couple, together!

No it's his family .... your family... what would be weird about that??

metboi

how much fun did u have last year? time apart give u a chance to miss him

izzie

Ask his family to lean on him gently.

Kitty

I would go if I thought it was going to be fun. Granted, I would have MORE fun if my husband went with me, but I could have fun by myself, too. If you like these people, then go and enjoy yourself.

bestkany

I think you should go with him, but if he doesn't want to go then you can't really force him. It would be way better if you go with him atleast he should try to take a day off unless he really gots to work.

free_angel

Go, you'll still have fun.

armando j

since your married, you should listen to your husband, wait, that was way back when, do want you want. tell him you have plans with him and if he doesnt want to go, tell him siyanara (sic) and for him to make sure the house is spotless when you return

i'mbeingseriuos

you women have a handy tool. it's called guilt. use it.

Stars

It seems a little weird to me, I would ask if it is really just work or if there is another reason why he doesn't want to go. If you know that he really can not go because of work, and can not make any exceptions then it's up to you, if you feel weird don't go.

Sarah C

If they want you (My in-laws never asked me much of anywhere without my husband or, later, our kids), go. It's good family PR to know who all the "out-law" relatives are.

Angie

Just let him know that because he's been working so hard it'd be nice to forget all that. Go either way because you shouldnt sacrafice your fun times and if he understands even better. Just let him know it's gorgeous, it's summer, and even better you love him and want him there to enjoy it. Maybe bring up something you guys can do together to convince him if you really want him to go. Like to hiking, or fishing, or cuddle under the stars with the fire on a clear night. Ask if there's anything you can do to help take the workload off (if you can).
Just let him know he'll be missed if he still says no and you two can plan something later on together.

If you wanna go, go. Nothing weird about it at all. They are your family too. If you wouldnt have that much fun without him, then stay home and have fun with him. have fun ( somewhere) lol.

Deep Thought

If he doesn't want to go because of work, I don't see a problem with that. But remind him that he has to make sure to stop and have fun from time to time. Remember to work to live not live to work.

frawlicious

Well if he doesn't want to go and you enjoyed yourself, go again and have fun!

jdiddley

Make some sort of deal with him that if he goes camping with you then you will give him extra uninterrupted alone/work time when you both return home so that he can catch up on his work. Also remind him that even when he dies, his "in box" will not be empty. Life's too short to pass up opportunities to live!

mrs.darkbladez

Well, did you have fun last year? Maybe you two should plan your own romantic trip. =)

Jenny J

After reading your question two things came to my mind. First of all remember his family is yours too. You shouldn't feel weird going anywhere with his family if you get along with them. As busy as people get these days it's nice to have a family that takes the time to camp together. Second thing that came to my mind is do you know for sure your husband is staying home because of his job? I don't mean to be rude but some men do like to play when the cat is away. The only reason I bring it up is because it happened to me. I never suspected it at all but it happened never the less. I hope things work out for you. Go camping and have fun but try to get him away from the office for awhile. Tell him how much it would mean to you.

Ethan

Well, it depends on the sensitivity of your husband. You gonna have to recall his reaction from last year when you went without him. If he was ok then, then I think you don't have to worry at all. But again for the sake of little courtesy, just try and invite him again for this year's camping and see if he has anything to say before it affects your relationship. Just make him feel tempted with your convincing words. He'll all be yours in no time. Good luck.

maureen g

All you can do is ask. Tell him that you can alternate years to go camping, and maybe he can get alot of work out of the way so he won't get behind. If you and your happiness means anything to him, he will do it. It isn't like you are asking for the moon or a bunch of diamonds!
