Unreasonable

[luxed]

We moved 40 miles 2 years ago so that DH could be closer to work, he couldn't stand the 50min drive anymore so we made sacrifices, he now drives 20 min to work.

A couple of times a month he has to travel for work, it's normally just a day visit and an hour and a half each way. He once drove from the top of the UK to the bottom and back the next day! Occasionally he goes abroad and drives just over 2hrs to the airport.

My problem is he does this traveling for work but refuses to travel any further than an hour with us. It feels unfair that he will put himself out for work but not for us. I want to go on holiday but it's very restricted because of the distance he's willing to drive. He doesn't want to drive 2 and a half hours after being on holiday. Is it just me or is this weird? (I don't drive)

What's your relationship like generally?

Do you have to drive to go on holiday?

Get a train

DH and I lived without a car until eldest DS was 16. Didn't stop us going on holiday at all - buses to the airport etc, trains, ferries etc. My DH doesn't drive and I still prefer not to do a big drive (or in the dark). We managed absolutely fine.

Maybe if you suggest a holiday without the car, that should give you an insight into how much he wants to go on holiday? That way you could do the research - tbh it can get a bit wearing being the "only" driver in a family.
