Default Was this rude?

Sunday, me and Rookie51 leave a party he threw for his g/f's 21st, to hunt on her family'sproperty across the road.When we left to hunt, everyoneelse did too,leaving our two girlfriends back at the house by themselves.Ihad to get out of the stand early(nature was calling!) I get back and get chewed out by my girl and was told how much BS it was we left them and howrude it was especially to his girl. He gets back at dark and his g/f didn't even say anything!! Was that rudeof us?Let's here some thoughts? Anyone else's significant other ever get in the way of hunting?

I always said a girl would never keep me from hunting...

I would have done the same thing, so no, I don't think it was rude.

My wife never "gets in the way" of my hunting. There are times she has plans for me that prevent me from hunting. It doesn't happen often as she is aware of how important hunting is to me. However we are a team and at times I have to make sacrifices for her. I would never leave her at a party unless it was agreed upon beforehand. And even then it would have to be opening day or the rut.

Ignore them, act like they don't exist if they bring it up again. Then pretend like you can't hear them. If they accuse you of having selective hearing, say "what"?

Your kids, they are just girlfriends, you have a long life ahead of you and they won't be your last girlfriends. Don't tie yourself down so early, live life, enjoy the world, women come and go and until you meet the one, HUNT!

Mine either...I just throw her out of the way!!! Just kidding...sorry you got chewed out...perhaps some flowers...but I agree with TX, relationships are a team thing, my wife would have reamed me too.

I would say compensate on her behalf, so she will let you do whatever you want...
