PiLfan Posted May 12, 2006 Share Posted May 12, 2006 Ok, a friend of mine got married 10 months ago to a girl he met in south america while with the foreign service. they moved to bulgaria in September....i just heard the other day from his brother that he's coming home for 6 weeks leave/vacation they're giving him. BUT....his wife's not coming. she says she'd be bored in america and instead is choosing to vacation elsewhere on her own for those 6 weeks. so maybe i'm reading too much into this with too little facts, but does this sound like an early sign of marriage trouble?...it seems weird they'd be having problems like this after being together only 10 months, but then again i just find it hard to explain why they would willingly vacation away from each other for 6 weeks. my wife thinks the marriage is on the rocks...i'm not as sure. what's everyone else's opinion?

MisterPinstripe Posted May 12, 2006 Share Posted May 12, 2006 I would say yes it is. Married for 10 months and going on seperate 6 week vacations? Bye bye. Maybe she is looking for time to cheat. :whoknows: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnny Punani2 Posted May 12, 2006 Share Posted May 12, 2006 Marriage is over. No woman "in love" wants to spend 6 weeks away from her husband/bf. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twa Posted May 12, 2006 Share Posted May 12, 2006 No big deal unless they make it one,maybe it's just me but getting away from each other for awhile can be a good thing...Six weeks is a little long,but whatever you can handle :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No couple I know could stand being away from each other for two weeks, let alone six, and all of them have been married for at least 6 years or so.

dfitzo53 Posted May 12, 2006 Share Posted May 12, 2006 I'm not sure it's really my business, and if I were him I don't think I'd appreciate having my private life out on the internet, even without my name. Either way, I don't see how one could be bored with a six week vacation in the United States, assuming they're not tied down to Nowheresville, Iowa.

I've been married 22yrs,yet after 10 months I could have used some time off to recuperate...I think she was trying to kill me for the insurance money But what a way to go. :laugh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. S Posted May 13, 2006 Share Posted May 13, 2006 yeh, even relationships in their first few months, the girl usually would not want to be away from the guy for a long time. 10 months seems rather short to be bored of something. 2 years or something would be different. Either way, what would I know? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the burgundy and gold Posted May 13, 2006 Share Posted May 13, 2006 obviously i have no personal experience but it sounds to me like that marriage isn't going to last that much longer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeanCollins Posted May 13, 2006 Share Posted May 13, 2006 My old friend married a woman from South America, and she vacations without him in South America 2 times a year for a month at a time. Well he went thru her emails (that were in spanish) and took them to work to have a couple of his hispanic co-workers look at them. without going into details, the news was not good at all. :doh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mistymjohnson Posted May 13, 2006 Share Posted May 13, 2006 Different strokes for different folks... We do not even know the parameters of their marriage. They may lead an alternative lifestyle behind closed doors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
