Simple, shes a woman so she does as shes told. I dont mess with white good operation, she doesnt need to worry her pretty little head about making decisions.
two things either you are not married.. or its not a happy situation..
but if I pulled that in my house I would have trouble breathing for the next zero years of my life.. because I wouldn't BE BREATHING..
nor would I be walking or talking without years of theraphy..
you don't pull that if you have a mutual marriage.. one that you want to keep..
and I have 31 years of experience..
there isn't a trick.. it comes down to what does SHE NEED. and not always but if its her turn.. ITS HER TURN.. what you don't want is to buy the trip. go and have a worst time then the last because SHE DOESN"T WANT TO BE THERE..
and I wish I was married to a a girl who wanted a new nighty on every trip.. but that's another story..
you need to meet your family's NEEDs.. and not your wants.. if she NEEDS to go some where else .. you go.. and you smile and enjoy it..
WE ARE GOING TO LAS VEGAS in June.. and the Grand Canyon.. and I am going to enjoy it.. and I am going to smile.. and be happy.. and stay married. .
because , my wife is my best friend, and she IS THE MOST IMPORTANT THING IN MY LIFE..
now would I like her to go to Disney for Christmas.. You bet.. but if its not in the cards. .I am not going to die.. her NEEDS are more important then my wants.. and that's how you stay married for 31 years..
