I don't know....I've been thinking of doing the same thing to my husband. Saying I'm going out dancing with the girls to try to make him jealous, because he says he doesn't feel he would be jealous if I was with someone else. But, I think if he gets a taste of what it's like to wonder what I'm up to that night, maybe he'd change his mind. But, like you said it's not standard db practice...so I don't know, but I feel you're pain!
