Going away without dh

do you ever go away without dh? i have to go to florida in april to help my mom. she's having hip replacement surgery on the 18th. i'll be away for a week. dh can't get away. it will be so weird not seeing him for a whole week

Re: Going away without dh

I went once for 4 days. There was some family stuff going on, I visited a friend. It was nice, but I did miss him a lot.

Re: Going away without dh

yep plenty of times!! Only makes coming home better!!

Re: Going away without dh

Yes. I coach softball and often go away for a week every year. He stays home.

I will also go away for a weekend to a girlfriends house and dh doesn't always go.

Re: Going away without dh

I will away at the end of the month for about 3 days without DH. I'm apprehensive- we havent been apart since college when we still lived with our parents over the summer breaks.

Re: Going away without dh

Yup. Sometimes I go to my parent's house for the weekend. I've also gone to my best friend's in VA for a few days without him.

Re: Going away without dh

in the past year that we've been married--i just realized i've never gone anywhere without him -- like for a wknd or anything.

i think its time i do. lol

Re: Going away without dh

no I don't but I also don't drive so it would be difficult

Re: Going away without dh

i went to italy in 2006 before we were married and i cried every day LOL but i am going back in 2009 and i think it will be easier now that we are married and i am actually going to be coming home to HIM!

Re: Going away without dh

I have. I have relatives in other states and DH usually works weekends so I leave him home.

Re: Going away without dh

I've gone away without him plenty of times. I am going again this Saturday for 4 days!

We miss each other but our reunions are always sweet. And he appreciates me even more after having hotdogs, mac and cheese and pizza for a few days in a row.

Re: Going away without dh

DH went away on a guys weekend a few years ago. I missed him like crazy, but, when he came home, it was even better.

Re: Going away without dh

I find it fascinating that if I don't go out for awhile, my husband will nag me and give me a hard time about it and "giving him some space", yet if I do go out for even a couple hours, he will call my phone like 2 or 3 times to "check in" and say "how much he misses me" LOL.

Re: Going away without dh

When we were still dating, I went away for a week with the girls to Acapulco. It was great!

I also used to go away 2 - 3 weekends a year for a convention of the youth group I used to volunteer for. I don't volunteer with them anymore, but if I did I would still go.

He went to Ireland with his hockey league for a week too ...

And when my cousin who lives in DC had a baby, I went down with my family for the Bris. DH could not get away from work at the time.

Re: Going away without dh

yep- my family doesn't live in NY- so sometimes I want to go there- and he can't come

it's not the end of the world

I enjoy spending time with my family and I don't see the often

Re: Going away without dh

Yes I've gone away for a few days at a time without DH, and he has done the same.

Re: Going away without dh

yep, we both have.

Re: Going away without dh

yes, we both have. Our parents both live in other places so sometimes we go out there on our own when the other can't come.

Re: Going away without dh

yep, for lots and lots of business trips. I've never gone away for a vacation w/o him....
