Quote: Ah...interesting point...have you tried that (I'm guessing yes but play anyway)...making the plans centered around stuff that he likes to do?
can't do it with football since he's already got the tickets (and I'm not included in that ) baseball? would be nice..wanna sell me a pair of your tickets sage??? basketball?? though he will on occassion watch and going is nice...it's not really high on his list. and then I'd be stuck with the tickets.. a concert? well now that I can dig..but again..it's money (not that we don't have it but if he can't make it) spent that he may not get to enjoy...he's not very good at getting home on time even if we have plans. It becomes a hassle for him to get home in enough time to get cleaned up and ready to go so he then doesn't fully enjoy himself becuase it's all a rush rush rush to get wherever it is.
This is not a man who just avoids or doesn't make the time to do things regularly with me...this is a man who opts out of friday night family (his family) functions (with invitations that come a month prior) because he just doesn't have the time.
