This is the answer. Tell not-Kalunda to do something special with her to celebrate her birthday the week or days before, that'll be memorable for her. Then if he really wants to go over the top, he can set something up for her and a couple of her friends (like a gift card to a nice restaurant and movie tickets or something) for the night of. He should not pass up the ski trip.

Beer, snow bunnies, and the slopes with the boys

Presents, cake, and donning on the missus

Tough choice

Go skiing and celebrate around that. If she bitches too much just leave her. She isn't worth the trouble

My buddy (not Kalunda) was invited to go on a ski trip, but the trip falls on the same weekend as his wife's birthday. He desperately wants to go on this trip but worries how his wife will feel about him being out of town for her birthday.

How should he play this?

Celebrate her birthday the weekend before unless you already have plans.

Is this a 40th? Do yall have plan or a party already scheduled?

If she was a good wife, in which I'm sure she is, she should understand that there will be more birthdays than guys ski trips and shouldn't have a problem letting you off the hook.

shite man, I've missed anniversary's for hunting trips...the good ones really dont care.

It's just a birthday. Everyone has one every year. Once you are an adult it shouldn't be a big deal for people to celebrate your birthday. Just take her to dinner before or after the trip and if she feels slighted/needs more than that, it's on her.

Stay for wife birthday. He should have planned ahead of time. At least this is the conservative answer without having a clue about their particular relationship.

Tell her it is important to you to go on the ski trip but you recognize that it puts her in a spot that might make her feel less important than his friends.

Assure her she is important and ask if there is a way to celebrate her Bday on another weekend with a promised full court press of romance and relaxation or anything else she may want.

If he married the right girl, this should not be a problem too difficult to overcome.

Your "friend" should comment on how he can't believe his wife is already another year older. This will piss her off. This will allow him long enough to go on his ski trip while she is already pissed off.

When he asks she will say "do whatever you want i don't care" or something similar. This is a binding verbal agreement whether sarcastic or not.

Then bring her back some edible pots to calm her the frick down.

If his wife is cool she will understand. It will be fine if he does something really nice before and after the trip for her birthday. She can do girls night for her actual birthday.

He basically has to think of something nice enough that will offset him being gone on her bday. It's very doable
