[quote=Anonymous]OP here, I should I have guessed on the flaming so a few things to clarify. First of all, I know this is irrational, one reason I took my chances on DCUM.

The biggest hobby my husband has is cars, so from a money and physical space situation it feels like it runs the show.

I have a ton of interests--i have several parts of history im practically an expert on, for instance, and I read constantly  and go to lectures periodically. So I'm not worried about being boring.

I guess what I'm wondering is how to assert taking the time I want to go do something. For example, I love skiing. And every winter I say to myself, DH gets to do his cars all year, I'm going to go to Vermont. But then I realize I need new ski clothes. Who wants to come with? Should I go alone? I look at hotel prices. And in the end I just think, genuinely, it's too much to spend $3k when I can stay home and hang out with my kid and see my friends and feel happy. But then for the rest of the year the resentment grows bc DH has the ability to take what he needs to do the the thing that makes him happy.

I know I just need to change but I am not sure how.
