[quote=Anonymous]When we go on vacations with other people I am not a good partner or even a great mom really.  I am overwhelmed being away from home and our routine and near water with kids.  I jump to leave a go to the store or run any errand that gets me away from the house (esp when multiple kids are around).  It is how I cope.  Not great, but what I do.  My husband is aware, and since most of the time we go with his good friends and their family, he tries to understand.  I will take naps, he will play in the beach with the kids.  Our friends know, and it is a joke between us (friends and my husband).  It probably bothered him on some level at first, until he realized this is how I cope with stress and noise.

We all have our faults, and if he is otherwise good, try to find out why.  This can just be overwhelming for him (as it is all of us, but we all handle differently and have different breaking points).  I hate that DCUM always has to jump to affairs, etc.  And really, people bicker.  I am sure the other couple can handle it and if not they will do something different next year.  OP did not say they were full on fighting the whole time.[/quote]
