Dreading our trip to centre parcs

Me and my husband have been having a few problems recently and so we booked a break to centreparcs. Easter was too expensive so we're going in a couple of weeks.

I'm dreading it because all we ever do is argue, at least at home I can go out and have some time to myself, at centreparcs I feel I'm going to trapped with him 24/7.

He's really excited about it, has all these romantic ideas about eating a pizza in front of a log fire (in this heat!) and long strolls through the woods when in reality he's just going to irritate me or embarrass me and I'm going to get stroppy and we're going to argue over anything and everything.

Sounds stupid but I'm also dreading him showing me up, he's insisting on taking his mountain bike and buying me one so we can go rides and picnics and everything but his has stabalisers on, he doesnt care what people think but I think it's embarrasing and it just serves to wind me up even more making the chance of arguments more likely.

So do I go through with it and hope for the best or tell him I dont want to go?

Whay not try & be positive about the trip insteadof being negative before you have even got there?

Centreparcs ca be fab & if you have a row then just say you are off for a stroll or jump on your bike & go for a ride.

Sounds like great fun, just try to relax & enjoy it instead of worring about the "what if's"

why does your hunsband have stabelisers on his bike?

sounds lovely - he is making some time for you - romantic dinners with a log fire - who cares if it is hot outside! What is wrong with him wanting to buy you a bike so you can ride together (you can hire them there anyway) - it sounds like you have biiiiiiiiiiiiig problems if you are irritated by him being romantic

I also must say your post sounds like you are not into your marriage/husband at all?

NuttyMuffins · 14/04/2007 17:11

Sounds like he is making a huge effort to me.
