Default RE: How can I get her to understand?

At first whewn my wife and I were dating, I would miss out on some huntingto spend time with her and to help keep things civil.Then after we were married for a few years I let her dictate how I hunted, which was hardly ever. I went 4 hunting seasons without killing a deer. Then i went to work over seas for a year and missed out on my hunting season. I told myself when i get back I will hunt every chance i get. Every season since then I have killed atleast one deer. This year I killed 5. She tried that "I am always stuck at home with the kids" then my reply is, "you dont love our kids, you make it sound so bad to be at home with the kids?" Then she gives me this "we never get to spend time together anymore!" I say "we got the whole rest of the year to do whatever we want." Then when she gets really bad I say " Why dotn you come with me" then she says she "aint sitting out in them woods and waiting on something that prolly wont even show up" then i tell her its her fault and not mine. I tell her she tries to take it out on me for her having a boring life. The i give her the ole, I was a hunter when you said I DO. I tell ehr the door is rigth over there and she can follow me out when i go hunting. It sounds like I am hard on her but she fails to understand why I hunt, its not just about killing but eh getting away from it all and doing what i enjoy. I give her and my kids most of time anyway, i actually hunted less this year than last year and killed more deer.
