I need advice about my husband??

I am new to this site, but I have a question that I desperately need advice on. I received my family and friends, but I need others. My husband and I have been married now for 6 years in October. We have two kids- 4 and 2. In April of 2009 my husbands friend is getting married in Las Vegas. Well, my husband wants to go down with his friend 5 days before the wedding, on a Sunday to gamble and get in poker tournaments and such (for one we really don't have the money). He wants me to fly there by myself on Thursday and meet him there for the wedding. I really do not want to fly by myself for one. I have only flown once before and I really just don't think that's right for him to go down there without me and expect me to come out by myself later. Am I overreacting ?? Last year he went to Utah with a friend for a week and my kids were still young. I have never went anywhere without him. PLEASE HELP!!

Welcome to the board mommytinaoftwo,


If you don't want him to go use the money excuse. My dh went to Vegas with the guys without me. Granted it was before we were married, but we were living together.

Welcome to the board mommytinaoftwo,


Do you know what you want specifically?

What I want is for him to go out a day or two early with me and I told him that is fine if he has his guy time, and I will do my own thing, but he just wants that whole extra days. He knows that we don't have the money, he just says not to worry about it, and we have had numerous arguments about the whole thing. His friend influences him like crazy. I trust him completely! It has nothing to do with trust. I just think that he should consider my feelings too.

If you want to fly out a day or so after him...then you just do it...you DONT ask for permission.
