Don’t get me wrong: she does not believe her husband was sulking, per se. But, she noticed that his demeanor had totally changed, and he was not his usual fun and animated self.
Plus, throughout the rest of their vacation, her husband reportedly just sat around by the pool and did nothing. She claims that she did try to get him up to do other activities– like getting a massage– but her husband actually just told her to go get one by herself.
And eventually, after her husband’s attitude did not change, she decided to finally ask him what the problem was. Then, the truth finally came out that he was honestly just disappointed in her.
Apparently, he claims that he really stepped out of his comfort zone to go on that hike with her. But, when it came to his activities, he felt like she just did not return the favor.
She kind of took offense to that, though, and pointed out how hiking did not make her husband sick. So, she believes that there was a big difference and that it was not fair for her husband to make that comparison.
Nonetheless, her husband is adamant that she could have at least just tried one of the excursions. After all, they were supposed to try new things together.
So now, with the vacation over and her husband still pretty disappointed about how it went down, she has been left wondering if refusing to do the activities her husband wanted even though he went on her hike makes her a total jerk.
Do you believe being prone to motion sickness is a good excuse for not wanting to try her husband’s activities? Could she have tried to use other motion sickness treatments during those excursions and stopped if they became overwhelming? Or is it unreasonable that her husband expected her to do something she did not feel comfortable with? If you had been in her shoes, how would you have handled this?
