Possible bad wife--WWYD?

JD 2 B

We were going to do something special for Valentine's weekend, but it looks like work is having me fly back east for a case on Friday afternoon. I'm tempted to be a bad wife and ditch him for the weekend.

I'd be able to rent a car and drive a few hours and spend the three day weekend at home- That week is the anniversary of my Dad's passing so I thought it would be nice to spend some time with my little brother.

I'm feeling selfish for considering it? So what would you do? Ditch H or rush back?

How often do you get to see your brother? My answer will be somewhat based on the answer to that.

is valentine's day really important to you two?

or, can your husband go with you?

I see my brother about 3 times a year.

Valentine's day is actually my favorite holiday and that's the only thing that is keeping me from staying.

H can't really come with me since it would be out of pocket $$.

for me, it probably wouldn't be a big deal to spend it apart since neither of us is really a fan (we usually make a nice dinner at home and exchange cards).  but it sounds like you really enjoy it.  could you fly home in time to be back sunday night?

I would probably spend the weekend with my family and celebrate V-Day the weekend after. That's what I would do.

See, this is why V-Day bugs me. If you love your H every other day, don't rush and stress and miss time with your brother over one particular day.

I would stay, because you'll probably be too tired and stressed coming back to fully enjoy the holiday, anyway.

You can always celebrate faux-Valentine's Day the following weekend!

Well put.  That's my vote too Joy.

I agree with this.

I think I am just going to stay at home. He'll understand and my brother will appreciate the visit. :-)

My vote was with what Y_L stated too!

I would celebrate with DH on a different weekend, either before or after.  Everyone wins!
