re: Wives going on vacations. What's the O-T's rules on this?

Not only is it acceptable, it's encouraged!

Get the frick out the house so me and kids can eat dominos and not take baths!

My wife (no pics) must submit a request 90 days in advance of any planned trip and I must have contact information and character referrals from everyone she is traveling with. Otherwise, the request is summarily denied.

We have a more traditional household and family that works for us.

Really, the only times she’s away from me are if I’m at work obviously, or hunting, fishing, playing golf, or at a sporting event. Those are times granted to her to catch up on chores like laundry and cleaning, and also things like getting the kids to doctors appointments, haircuts, sports practices/games, etc. She knows that she needs to get those things done on her time.

I have lifelong friends I golf, and fish, and hunt, and see sporting events with. I’m the one earning a living and that’s how I deal with the stress of working that she knows nothing about.

The thought of her going on “girls trips,” isn’t really something we talk about. Those trips are expensive and the women who are obsessed with breaking away from their families for days to dress like skanks and spend frivolously on drinks and dinners, don’t really love and respect their husbands and families. I took her to Gulf Shores last year, anyway.

I don’t understand what kind of weak men would pay for that kind of nonsense, and I wouldn’t want to be married to a skank who wanted to get away from our house or our kids to run around with trashy friends on my dime.

Our household is full of love and godliness. The rest of you cucks and your slut wives are on a highway to hell.

Girls trip are a big no no, they are just a getaway to cheat

Holy shite, some of y'all are so fricking insecure. If you married a cheater, they will cheat no matter the time or place. A girls/guys only vacation wouldn't matter.

You can go to Google and read the studies out there on infidelity. What you're saying isn't really true.

Lack of established boundaries was one factor in a few of them out there. For example, would you be ok with your wife taking a girl's trip, heading out to the club, drinking and dancing that also involved guys? Even if it's innocent and didn't lead to cheating?

Those are pretty important boundaries that should be discussed beforehand. Some guys are ok with things like that.

Other things in those studies point to things like attention spurring lust. Social media makes it easy to get attention from dudes, even guys from their past. It's not difficult to spark something in those situations.

Alcohol, opportunity, a city where no one knows you or your SO, distance from them also allows you to mentally separate from them, even if temporarily.

Boundaries and discussions about that are critical, otherwise you may end up in a situation where your SO cheats, even if you never would have thought they would.

There's a formula out there that chisels away at the wall of trust you've built.

quote:

---

At some point in life you realize how to discern which women are likely to cheat and which ones are loyal...at least that should be the aim.

With the right temptation and opportunity, cheating is a danger for anyone. Mankind are fallen, fallible creatures. Which is why its wise to avoid such situations. It has nothing to do with “respect for her space “ or any such new age nonsense. So it very much depends on who is going where. If shes going on a shopping trip with the girls from church, then thats a self policing situation. If her partying friends want her to take a trip to Vegas, all kinds of alarms should be going off.

I was struggling for a third option

Eta- my husband would actually go and not care about dressing in drag but he HATES musicals so singing brunch is a hard no

You’d better draw up a divorce petition just to be on the safe side.
