He's just not as interested in traveling as i am, but i'm pretty sure i can say that i straight up TELL HIM about those dreams.
Could it be that he thinks taking you out of city was meeting your dream? I guess what I'm saying is that I've often thought I considered what my W wants, but then I sometimes get the slap in the face that tells me I've really missed the mark. I wonder if I need to spend more time with her to find out?
To be honest, I worry that her dream is just being a mother. She has fought to avoid babysitters & daycare except my S, so alone time has always been almost never. I tried taking her out a few times anyways, but she was in such a rush to go home or only talked about the kids. Maybe that is her dream, but it is hard for me when I want a friend, not just co-parents.

Or me for her. My W wants to sit on the sofa. I want to go do things together. With the TV on, I want to 'get' the show - I need to focus. TV off...it is a lot of pressure to sit and wait for a topic. How can either of us be really meeting our emotional needs when she wants a warm home and I want to do more?
