Did anyone regret marrying the “outdoor type”?

[Anonymous]

I’ve always had a roof above me and always paid the rent. I’ve never set foot inside a tent. I couldn't build fire to save my life.
But my BF is the outdoor type.

The gang is about to go away on a rock climbing weekend. What if something's on tv, and it's never shown again?

I was too scared to let him know. He knew what he was looking for. I lied until I fit the bill. God bless the great indoors.

Watch out for bears, wolves, coyotes, and mountain lions. 😁

I’m outdoorsy and it would ruin my life if my partner wasn’t too.

Me too. Also I look down on people who aren’t. Wimps.

A friend of mine takes his 5 year old backpacking almost every weekend. Sometimes the wife goes along.

Not even sure if OP is actually asking this question. If so, genius way of asking it with lyrics.

I said kids. One kid won't do it

I sometimes regret marrying an indoor type. There’s a lot of great things about the outdoor types. Low-cost or no-cost vacations, really fun multi-family camping possibilities that can include friends of multiple income levels, good for fitness and mental health of grownups and children, building character and hardiness of grownups and children, experiencing nature’s beauty, being away from screens, the list goes on and on.

I would go if my spouse took the lead. But camping is hard work and I’m not going to spearhead it.

Ask if being a scout Dad would scratch the outdoor itch. Is he even interested. His answer will speak volumes.

Had a friend whose husband, even after child #3, went hunting without the family every weekend. They divorced.
