Hubby and Stag Do

[RoundFaceNut]

DH has just told me he’d rather go on the stag do to Ibiza than on holiday with me and the kids. We can’t afford both.

He is normally great and has never put friends before his family. Not sure if this is why this has thrown me. It’s the fact he’s said he’d rather go with them than us.

Would you be pissed or let this go. He is part of the wedding party.

Lots of people asking for updates if he’s still going. He said he really doesn’t want to go. He said a few days in Ibiza is just not him.

I have suggested he should go as he’s part of the wedding party but he said he really doesn’t want to. I told him to think about it but he’s already told groom, who knowing my DH was not shocked. The groom said he didn’t think he would go.

@RoundFaceNut

this stag do aside, it does sound a bit like your husband needs to develop a bit more of a social life outside of the family! Rarely ever going out with friends isn’t healthy

That’s why I am always going on at him. He’s a very happy person and loves spending time with the kids. I love my kids and my DH but also value time with my friends. I assume you do too? By your comment as I don’t really understand it either. But he’s happy. 🤷🏻‍♀️

@RoundFaceNut

absolutely yes! it’s so important not to be so consumed by family life that you don’t have other interests, friends, etc. I guess all you can do is keep encouraging it 🤷‍♀️

Blimey that’s a massive turnaround then.. I don’t understand how it’s gone from you being cross hes crossing to trying to convince him to go though!
SOunds more like he wanted to go when it was coming out of joint funds, then when you said no and that he’d have to pay for it, plus you were upset, he’s reconsidered and realised it’s a lot of money and a long way just for a few beers!
Mayne he can take the groom out for a few beers at some point here.

Sorry GOING not crossing
