OK--so I'm just slightly fed up!
- Thread starter Nonsledwife
- Start date
yeah--maybe i'd have more to complain about if he was doing someone else--but hopefully it wouldn't cost as much--at least now i'm second fiddle to a dragon!
would it be better or worse if he stopped sledding and spent the money trying to nail your neighbors wife? A mans gotta have a few bad habits.
Nobody minds when that happens(everybody was there as a beginner once)....my wife comes all the time....shes as hooked as me
........she may not try all the bigger stuff be she can hold her own!!!!
bahahahahah look at your wording........... thats funny there, sorry..........
Don't get me wrong I don't mind when he goes away for the weekends I just wish it didn't so so much-And I did suggest to him I get a second job to help pay for things and he just blew it off!
he does have someone else, his sled which is why your mad having to play second fiddle to a sled, it sucks but he doesn't sleep with it, ????????????????
or does he????
or does he????
There's a saying "SUCK IT UP PRINCESS'', let the guy have some fun with his hobby, least he's not spending his money on otherthings.
If your husband is a typical Type A he feels a need to do a fair amount of thrillseeking. I started with hunting, but the adrenaline rushes were to few and far between. I switched to motocross until I got older and the ground became to hard. At 25 years of age I switched to snowmobiling and became a snowmobileaholic. Being a family man 5 days a week is great but by Saturday morning I need a release, so sledding it is. I try to make it home by 1:00 or 2:00 PM to fulfill my family commitments. I don't drink, smoke or do drugs, just ride alot in order to stay sane. Really!! It Works For Me!! Sounds like your husband may have the same sickness I'm afflicted with. Don't hold him back or he may nut out and do something he regrets. It really is a manageable affliction, but it's unfortunate it's more expensive than cocaine. Good Luck!!

Good thing you dont live out West. All we do is mod sleds, then ride non stop. My wife only sees me between storms.

Trust me, snowmobiling is much cheaper than coke
Could be worse things to be addicted to... internet **** sites, strip clubs, etc. I can understand his obsession though... I think about sledding all year long as well... I don't consider it a problem, more of a passion. Its a great way to decompress and escape from the stress of life. I say give him the time without stipulations. He will enjoy it more and need it less. As a newlywed, I used to try and shorten my trips to keep the Mrs happy, but after 17 years we now both realize she needs to let me go without making me feel obligated or guilty. That way I really enjoy it and don't feel like I got shortchanged. Give him freedom to enjoy his passion and support him in it. He will appreciate you that much more.
Is it possible for someone to become addicted to therapy? And If so, how would you treat them?
Your husband is going to fit in great around here. You should sign him up. From what I have learned, snowmobiling is a ravinous addiction. In February of 08, I didn't own a sled but thanks to one gift trip to Yellowstone(from my wife) in late December, I now have four and an enclosed trailer. I am still trying to buy all the gear. Now I'm looking for a bigger trailer. It is all I can think about. It drives my wife nuts(but her eyes sure did light up when she saw the new bibs and jacket I bought her). She likes to go a few times a year but not every weekend like me(I am lucky enough to live 85 miles from the Snowy Range in Wyoming). I think you'll spend more time fighting the addiction than just juming in with both feet. If she only knew what was going to happen when she bought me that trip. Best of luck.

Most all of our wives have been there. It's admirable that you are so quick to understand and support him in his re-creation. He will remember you for it and work hard to provide the same for you.
It seems to me that many women don't find and do that kind of thing they love to do that much. I hope you find yours if you haven't already. It sounds like you may not have and are feeling left out. Maybe if you asked him to help you find something to do with your friends he would be all over it. If he knew you loved it I'm betting he would love helping make it possible for you. I'm sure he would reciprocate your supportiveness.
Men eventually become pretty proactive in doing something they love to do besides work. Especially once they can afford it. You don't have to love sledding or being cold. Do what you love to do. We forget how much fun it is and how it recharges us until we get involved in it. The longer you go without it, the more likely you might be to overdo it later.
