[quote=Anonymous]I think your plan and overall approach is generous, mature, kind, and the best possible way you could approach this OP. Kudos to you - I wish your husband had equivalent emotional intelligence. And I also hope that afterwards you will say to him, very directly, that what you most want from his is "xxx" - whatever that is. "Honey , I really appreciate all of the effort and energy and though that went into our weekend in NYC. Now I want to ask you for another gift. I would like to take two days to go to "X" - all by myself, at some time that is convenient for us. Having that to look forward to and to help me recharge my batteries would be the single greatest gift you could give me. What do you think?" You need to be very direct and clear about what you want. You don't have to be accusatory, just clear. I hope you really do find a way to enjoy whatever he's planned, for your own sake! [/quote]
