I was sitting in the car at the liquor store waiting for C to come back out. I was overcome by the need to have someone come rescue me out of the car and carry me into another life.
I desperately want to go up north next weekend with the company of my dogs. I found a cabin with availability. The roadblock? C’s relecutance. His passive aggressiveness and then reverse psychology “it’s ok just go.”
I need nature to regain balance. I want to meditate to the sound of Lake Huron and the need to not converse with my dogs unless I choose to. Why can’t he see that I’m an introvert? That the birds, trees and lake revive me?
Should I go and let him stew or do I stay home to avoid confrontation??

hi you’re right, the sight to green grass and trees and smell of clean air are so refreshing. Whenever i want to unwind i always to go my province where i can speak to the ocean, we have a house by the sea, it is so refreshing.
So, you know, I too find myself thinking the same thing. I need to be in nature so I can think! It’s hard to think when there is a husband that I’m not clickn’ with for that day, kids with their issues- family, bills to be paid, dishes to be done, laundry to be folded, and again, the bills that seem to be piling up – so, what’s not to love about sitting in front of a lake with the pups? Complete bliss, I say and I hope you get to go soon!
GO. If you need to do it for yourself, then you need it. You will thank yourself afterwards, and he’ll get over it.
GO! There’s no reason you shouldn’t. You’re going to be miserable if you stay home thinking about being up there, and you’ll end up taking it out on him, so you might as well just go and seek peace for a little while. You deserve it and you shouldn’t let someone tell you otherwise
I don’t respond well to manipulation, so I would definitely go just to spite him. If he didn’t want you to go he should have discussed it like an adult, not a petulant high school girl
I say go. He won’t be pissed forever.
GO! You need to take care of yourself first and he should be able to understand that.
i think you should go to clear up your mind, then you are refreshed and recharged when you come back, and ready to talk with him whatever bothers and upsets you. it just has to come out, you shouldn’t keep it all to yourself.
take care and stay strong!
