Merrick, One thing I can say is you know your own heart.You know if you are strong enough to not let things to to far.Whether or not you should go on the trip is a choice you make knowing how strong you are.
One of the things that is good about this board is that we can tell all of our thought and feelings. Sort a seragate spouse if you will.We tell very intamate thoughts and feelings.That puts us in a comfort zone that could very easy become something that isn't comfortable at all. And when you put people with raw emotions and alcahol together you could get a very explosive combo.
Not that anyone would go to seek out that sort of thing.But if you have a fear of something when your in a painful place in your life then you should trust your instincts.whether they turn out to be afalse instinct it is still best not to chance it.
I know I for one have very raw emotions and I miss having the comfort that comes froma relationship and can not trust myself to not fall from my stand for my marriage.
I now try to not put myself into sitch where I will be tempted.I'm to weak right now.and I know it.
So if you feel you shouldn't do something go with it you know your heart.
And right now it is in love with your wife.As it should be.
