    Hi everyone.
    Just back from a few days away. Phone signal bad but was lurking on oh little phone as he got internet. Kept popping to nearest Ts to check the 1p and 4p finds lol. Didn't get any but got lawn mower we desperately needed for £30 and I had £4 off wys £30. Is it wrong that I googled before I went and had nearest Ts and As postcodes just incase :rotfl:
    Hope everyone is well and congrats deedee

  • Hi everyone, I’d really like your opinions on this please. OH has again accused me of being selfish. I know I can be sometimes because of my ASD but this time I really feel that he’s the selfish one. I want to go on a sightseeing holiday in Scotland. I enjoy visiting castles and historic buildings and I want to go to Stonehaven to visit Dunnottar Castle and 21 other heritage sites and museums in a 20 mile radius. OH isn’t interested in historic buildings and museums but he does visit them with me occasionally. However he said that spending a week doing this would not be a holiday for him and he’d be totally bored. It wouldn’t be worth just going for the day since it’s over 300 miles and the drive is over 5 hours! He won’t agree to me going alone either so that means I won’t ever get to visit these places unless I outlive him :( He says it will cost as much as a holiday abroad but we’ve been abroad 3 times and he just wants to sit by the pool all day then go for a sleep in the afternoon, which totally bores me :mad: I really don’t think I’m the one being selfish here :(

    21 other heritage sites = sorry that would be pain for me. Could you not take someone else that would get the same enjoyment as you.


    How about going to Greece? he could relax and you could visit the places you like. But honestly im not saying your wrong but if he don't like that doing that for a week then he has a point. that would drive me up the wall.

    My Mum & Dad are in their 60's and go on some holidays together and some separately, they have quite different interests so they go to the places the other one doesn't like on their own!

    Can you go with a friend? Or suggest you go there and he goes away somewhere he wants to go so you don't have to suffer? I don't think it's healthy if he's stopping you from going, it's not like you want to go out drinking and partying is it? Surely a good relationship involves compromise and I think you need to talk again. :)
    :) Learn from the past, enjoy and appreciate the present and work to make your future the best it can possibly be :)

    And get lots of glitches!

    I think some compromise is needed. How's about alternating days? One day you do what he wants and the other what you want?
