Spinoff to travel question...advice needed...

My cousin is petrified of flying, but her husband isn't. He has been begging her to go to Vegas for the past year or so. She does not want to go/he does, do you think he has a right to go with some friends and leave his wife behind?

I feel bad for her because she is so upset that her husband is not understanding her situation.

Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.

Thx.

ETA. She is also upset that he is considering going without her.

Re: Spinoff to travel question...advise needed...

That's a tough one. Does she ever intend to conquer her fear? IMO not flying really changes your life--they will be so limited in terms of travel. I would not want to totally limit myself, even though I do love DH very much--I can't imagine never seeing Europe or places that you must fly to.

I think I would probably be pissed, but more so at myself than at DH. She has made a decision for herself, but that doens't give her the right to make decisions for him. I would never stand for DH going someplace with his friends if it was someplace I wanted us to go to together, but it sounds like your cousin has no intentions of going to Vegas. I don't think she should stop him. And maybe him going without her will make her realize that there's a lot more she'll be missing out on if she doesn't get over her fear of flying. I know they're married, but she can't expect her husband to give up his desires to travel.

I know that there are classes you can take that conquer the fear of flying.
A friends mom took one class and they actually took her on plane trip! Maybe your cousin should seriously look into this. There are a few sites online where she can look into this.
