Avid golfer / Hobbies & Successful marriages

[cat03]

I don't think there is anything wrong with golf, a few questions though: do you golf every weekend? does it take up the middle of the way in a way that you can't do anything else with the family afterwards?

I'm not sure how long golf games go, but 5hrs sounds like a lot, I'd let my H go play basketball at night until late, he'd go at 6 or 7pm, by then we didnt' do much with the kids anyways and I got a chance to relax while the kids slept. Maybe she resents the fact that pretty much half the weekend is gone when you golf.

I do think though that each person should be free to follow their interests, that one is responsible for one's happiness.

Do you do things just with her?, do you leave kids with a sitter and do stuff with only her? does she get to have a night out? it does sound like she has some time alone on the weekdays. Do you guys work out? My H and I joined a gym and do yoga together, it was nice spending that time together.
