[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes of course it’s reasonable and healthy for everyone, and especially a widow who is unexpected thrust into the role of being a grieving single parent while constantly having to try to hold things together for her kids, to have the opportunity to take time for themselves.

If this was something she was doing on a regular basis or within a few months of her husband’s death then yes it might  be irresponsible, but after 1.5 years  taking a few days for herself to take what is almost certainly a much needed break with a friend (assuming the kids are safe with a trusted family member or friends) seems more than reasonable.

I don’t think it’s weird at all that this is still bothering you. Your husband sounds incredibly judgmental, [b]likely has a healthy dose of ingrained misogyny[/b], and is definitely TAH here.[/quote]

This.

Do you travel with friends, OP? Like for a girls weekend? When I was dating my now husband I made it clear to him that I would continue to prioritize my close friendships which meant (1) I would spend time and money on girls trips with my friends and (2) I had male friendships that were not and had never been romantic and I would not be giving those up. As a result, I can't imagine my husband ever having the reaction yours did, so I'm wondering how he feels about YOU spending time away from him and your kids. [/quote]
