[quote=Anonymous]I have a friend who does this to an extent. I don’t think she lies to her DH but I don’t think she’s super clear about how optional many of her trips are and everything is “for her career.” Already busy biglaw partner and she’ll definitely go to NYC and stay an extra day or 2 to work out of that office — and then uses her time at night to socialize with friends from her nyc days and says how guilt free she feels bc it’s not like her kids are waiting for her in nyc. Definitely goes to 1-2 conferences per year with no real client development potential. Already not home much but has joined some alumni board for her law school that requires her in person attendance 2-4 times/year. It’s just their marriage - he’s a SAHD who knows her career comes first and that’s just the price of entry. Will say though the behavior is now diminishing a touch bc her kids are in 4-5th grade and getting vocal about “you’re not coming to X?!” So now she has to schedule these things around them a bit which means she gets away less than she used to.[/quote]
