[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hi! Can't resurrect the old thread on this so starting a new one....

UGH! My husband is married to his handicap. All our holiday weekends, including this past 4th, revolve around golf. Early close on Thursday, straight to the driving range then "socially distant beers" at his best friends house. Friday 36 holes, then beers with his golf buddies. Saturday sat around and grilled what I bought for dinner, no holiday memory making or planning.  Sunday morning early round of golf then took our DS to play 9 in the afternoon. This is psycho right?! 
I am a SAHM and he says I have fun every day doing what I love, spending time with our children, and shop and drink rose starting at 3:30 (all true!) but that's not an excuse for him to basically just show up for me and the kids when it's convenient for him? He can't figure out how to plan us a family vacation or activity, but can plan a golf trip with friends months in advance, scheduled perfectly, and weekends at his parents. I am SO OVER IT! Gave him hell all night last night. He makes a lot of money and I'm living a dream life, but feel very jealous that he is having so much fun, and has got "it all figured out!". I kind of feel chumped. 
I need to figure out a way to make this work. Any advice? [/quote]

Np. Another perspective.  I'm the wife and I love sports.  My dh does not.  I havent been golfing in a few years because I have no one to golf with.  Please let your dh enjoy it without nagging.  My dh loves to sing and when my kids were younger would sing at church and in a choir.  So potentially twice a week practice and he traveled a lot.  But, singing is his passion and I would never tell him not to do what  he loves.

Why cant you learn?  It is a lot of fun and it is something you can do together.  How old are your kids?  Perhaps they can learn too![/quote]
