[QUOTE="SteelBanger, post: 1905782, member: 112192"] If it's something you want to do and experience then you need to do it, no question about it. Yes these things should be discussed in any relationship, especially when it involves spending a fair amount of family resources (both time and money) but if it's something that fits within the constraints of your lives then there's zero practical or logical reason for her to be opposed to it. I consider myself more tolerant, understanding, and patient than most but one thing I could never handle is a wife that tries to control me and my interests / hobbies ... and I certainly don't try to control hers. I'm pretty lucky, I got into shooting right when I got engaged and have spent a fair amount of money on guns over the years, a couple purchases causing a little bit of a ruckus. I also got into hunting about 4 years into our marriage and she fully supported that and the money that went into it. Yes she's not always a fan when I want to head out into the woods and leave her with the kids all day, but she gets that it's something important to me and that it grounds me and helps me unwind ... which makes us all happier in the end! lol And always remember, it's easier to ask for forgiveness than permission! 😂 [/QUOTE]
