[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]52 woman here. Good body, very confident, masculine. [b]Take charge. [/b][/quote]

Take charge of life generally.  Look around at what needs to be done and take care of it.  Make the dinner reservations, book the babysitter, make the meal plan and order the groceries.  Notice the sheets need changing and take care of that.  Book the vacation for the family.  [/quote]

Yes, amen. I do literally all of this, and I'm tired of it. [/quote]

Plus, the lack of initiative or opinions from my DH saps my desire. I'd be much more turned on by, "Let's go to [restaurant] on Friday. I'll make a reservation. And how about a drink first at [bar]?" It has been YEARS since my husband has made a plan. [/quote]

That would be so amazing!
I have an acquaintance (kids friends mom) who dropped that she and her husband were going alone for a long weekend. “Where are you going?” “Somewhere in Mexico.” “You’re leaving in two days and you don’t know where you’re going?” “Some resort I guess. My husband books these things. I’m just along for the ride. It always ends up being fun.” I was so freaking envious I could have thrown something.[/quote]

Why?  What is the big deal about planning a trip?  That’s the most fun part.

Some of you just want to be pissed off at your husbands.[/quote]

It might be okay if my husband was like this guys wife, and just said, “it’s always fun!”

Instead, he gets all stressed out if it costs “too much,” and then gets all upset that the place we stay isn’t that nice and the activities aren’t that great if we do it on the cheap.

It does not feel fun.  [/quote]

This. Not only don't some DH plan anything (trips, restaurants, vacations), they complain when "they're along for the ride". On our last vacation to the beach on the West Coast I had arranged everything, an apartment to stay and of course I was cooking. One morning when we had plans going to a National Park, I had gotten the kids ready (elementary age), fed them, packed snacks etc. and was standing with them at the door ready to go. While I was getting the kids ready, he had nothing to do, so he decided to go on the beach for a run. He didn't think of taking stuff to the car, look up the route, no, nothing. So I was standing next to the car with kids while he was "running on the beach". I called him. Nothing. I left with the kids to the trip as I had planned. There was no end to the complaints when we returned in the evening. That was the last trip I planned. It was 8 years ago. We have gone nowhere since. [/quote]
