If you go away for a few days with DH/SO...
do you pack for them?
I am LOSING my mind trying to figure out what to pack to me no less HIM! 
What if it's cold?
What if it rains?
What if he gets dirty?
Do I need a "nice" outift?
It's making me crAAAAAzy! 
I wish he could do it himself, but we he won't have time. I hope he doesn't complain tomorrow
*fingers crossed*

Re: If you go away for a few days with DH/SO...
I don't, because he's a big boy, but I'm a very organized packer - I write down what I'll wear each day and all that jazz, so I make sure he knows how many days to pack for, if it might be cold, rainy, hot, etc. I remind him to bring whatever I think he might need and then if he's without it, he's SOL.

Re: If you go away for a few days with DH/SO...
even if I offered to pack for DH, he wouldn't let me. he is very particular about *how* his clothes are packed. they have to be rolled, and in a certain way...

yup same here. he can do it himself. besides he's very anal about how he packs. usually i put what i'm packing in a pile on the bed, nice and neat, and we just take one suit case together and he packs it cause he's so good at it. lol

Re: If you go away for a few days with DH/SO...
nope! lol i learned from my mom... she ALWAYS has to pack for my dad when the two of them go away... hes 54 years old!! LOL so i trained DH early on to pack for himself... no way am i gonna be stuck doing that for the next 30 years!
although, are you a SAHM?? in that case i might do it, just because i would have more time at home than he does....
ETA.. now getting him to unpack when we get back is another story! i usualy end up doin that for him becasue he'll let his suitcase sit around for weeks if i don't!

He packs for himself but then I go over it and make sure he hasn't forgotten anything.

Re: If you go away for a few days with DH/SO...
DS takes out his entire wardrobe. I then pick through what he doesn't need and he packs the rest.

You are - have him treat you to something nice when you get to your destination.

Dh packs himself.
And you know that you DON'T need a nice outfit for this weekend!
PJ's, sweatshirts and jeans all weekend.

Re: If you go away for a few days with DH/SO...
DW and I both pack our own stuff. DW usually packs for DC.
.... oh, and I usually wind up carrying most of it....

Re: If you go away for a few days with DH/SO...
I used to, then I stopped. He's a big boy, he can so it. There have been trips where he's forgotten something, and then blames me. So at least he remembers the next time!

Not dressy, just nice enough in case we wind up out for dinner or something...
Then again, look at where we are going and the crowds that surround!!
Fried chicken and mullets for everyone

Re: If you go away for a few days with DH/SO...
I would like to, but he won't let me. Then, when we get to where we're going, he spends the trip complaining that he doesn't have the right clothes

Re: If you go away for a few days with DH/SO...
i pack for the both of us. i learned my lesson the hard way the first few times we traveled together - Dh WAY overpacks. if i didn't intervene, there would be no room left for my clothes!
