I saw this in the hot topics thinger, and it kind of made me *** my head to one side:

The gist is that she had plans to go out with her girlfriends, but then her husband got sick with a cold/flu. She is asking if people think she should stay home with him or go out with friends as planned.
I don't know about anyone else, but under most circumstances this would be a no brainer for me. Go out with your friends, man! I might call to see how he's doing, come home a little earlier, or ask if he wanted me to pick him up anything. But between careers and people having kids, I don't get a ton of time with my girlfriends these days. Plus I like being left the eff alone when I'm sick.
Obviously the situation changes if kids are involved, but that doesn't appear to be the case here.
Am I a cold hearted vagwarbler?

In the words of the great Paula Abdul, you're a c-c-c-c-old hearted snake.
My husby wants me as far away as possible when he's sick. I'd go out.
It wouldn't even occur to me to stay home with him. I know that when I'm sick, I just want to be left alone. My H is the same.
