[quote=Anonymous]I'm pretty low on social needs so not seeing my husband a few nights a week wouldn't really bother me. I love an excuse to have a simple pot of soup or a "girl dinner" spread with my kids and do crafts or games. My husband doesn't like those kids of activities. He coaches their sports and hangs out with them a lot on the weekends and is more involved than my dad ever was and I was happy with my dad's level of involvement as a kid. I go to a book club, volunteer event, etc. a few times a month where I'm gone for an extended period of time and he never complains. I sometimes do evening workouts, but not for the whole evening/night. I guess it would depend on the bedtimes of kids. Mine go to sleep around the same time so it's not a big deal to read them stories and get them in bed myself. If there was a baby to be put down with a routine and all that and a toddler who needed to be supervised that would change things. We went out less when they were tiny.[/quote]
