It is necessary sometimes but I don't like it.
For a vacation, no. It would be no fun without him there.
My thoughts EXACTLY.
My wife passed from ovarian cancer a year and a half ago. Prior to that we were only part a total of 10 days. One was a temporary assignment while I was in the military, and the other was a week where my daughter took her on a trip to California to see her sister.
I still miss her after 42 years of marriage.
I kind of agree with this. My husband unit goes away a couple of times per year to help out his mom. I don’t like being without him, but I know it’s important.
Real Vacations? We spend those at home with our critters, sleeping late, cooking interesting stuff, and doing Whatever We Want :-)
Well said.
