UGH I need advice...women not deer...
Ok guys...Im 23 and have been dating a certain lady for a year. Im a working RN and she is finishing up nursing school. So I get to see her Thur-Sun. BUT now im leaving to go on a week long archery hunting trip, my father and I have been planning this trip all year. We were going to leave on Sat morning but I switched a day at work and got friday off. So now I can leave Friday Morning!!! I was pumped...My gf was pissed. You would think I killed her dog and blew up her house.
My quesion is what would you do. Leave a day early and get 2 extra hunts in or stay? I really care about her and she cares about me so that is not an issue and should not be discussed. |
RE: UGH I need advice...women not deer...
Go hunting, but remember I have 2 ex wifes.
|
RE: UGH I need advice...women not deer...
good luck hunting! The two extra days will be nice.
|
RE: UGH I need advice...women not deer...
I have beenmarried to mywife for 15 years and if in the beginning (courting) days she had given a hard time for hunting, we would not be married today....;)
|
RE: UGH I need advice...women not deer...
Get her a gift card to a spa and go hunting.
|
RE: UGH I need advice...women not deer...
Leave a day early. If you've been planning this trip for a long time, with your dad, you should go. Talk it over with her, she'll understand.
|
RE: UGH I need advice...women not deer...
She should realize how important this is to you. You have no kids with her and are not married. Put your foot down and enjoy time while you can with your father. It's nothing against her she needs understand this. Good luck hunting! You give in now she will expect it every time.
|
RE: UGH I need advice...women not deer...
Stand up for yourself and do your thing. She'll get over it. If she dumps you over that, then she ain't the right one.
|
RE: UGH I need advice...women not deer...
Just bust her in the mouth a couple of times and tell her to have the house cleaned and a hot dinner ready when you get back.
|
RE: UGH I need advice...women not deer...
Go for it! You have plenty of time to be p---y whipped!:D

I have a suspicion the suggestions will be very one sided.[8D] |
RE: UGH I need advice...women not deer...
You give in now then she's got you for as long as you 2 are together. SHe'll settle down give her some flowers and a back rub and you'll be hunting Friday.
|
RE: UGH I need advice...women not deer...
Thanks guys...I just needed to know I wasnt a jerk for going on friday. Ill keep you posted on my luck in Ohio!!
|
RE: UGH I need advice...women not deer...
Brent, set the bar now.
Example: The firsthunting season(four years ago) with my now wife, I spent every friday night at the cabin and hunted every night that I could. Now when I stay home and drive up in the morning, or skip a day, it is a bg deal to her. She knew and knowsthat hunting is very important to me and respects that. Short answer, if it is ment to be, she will understand. If you want it to work, you need to be honest about what you want to do. |
RE: UGH I need advice...women not deer...
I would say go and have a good time. If youy give in now, it will only get worse later on.
|
RE: UGH I need advice...women not deer...
I'd ask her to pack your bags early and have them waiting by the door ready for you to go. i show her the list of chores to do while your gone, tell her to make sure she's gonna be in the mood for a lil love'n the night before you leave and when you return.

Brent....you come on to a hunting website during the rut to ask us whether you should go hunt or stay with her....Not sure that gives her a fair chance [8D] Good luck, either way I'm sure it will work out for you. At least you have the week...not just the weekend! |

RE: UGH I need advice...women not deer...
I have so many friends that can't enjoy anything because they fold like chairs to their girlfriends and wives. My wife however understands what I enjoy and talking to her about it helped a lot in the way things go now(5 years later). If you talk to her I think it will go over well for you, and really help your relationship in the long run. If you fold and don't go then it will only make you miserable in the long run cause she will run over you from here on out because you let her.
I can't tell you how many of my friends complain that they can't go anyplace, or do anything for themselves because they "aren't allowed"...and I don't know how many times I have asked them when did they marry their mother? |
RE: UGH I need advice...women not deer...
whats wrong with you? GO HUNTING WITH YOUR DAD!!!!!
what do you tell a woman with 2 black eyes? nothing, you already told her twice. -- ha ha just a joke calm down |

This time of year is the small window of opportunity that we wait all year for! There is a lot of fish in the sea, try a different girlfriend.
|
RE: UGH I need advice...women not deer...
gotta go early. She'll piss and moan, but she'll get over it. Its is only fair to show her how things are going to be so she can decide if that is what she wants. She'll get over it though.

RE: UGH I need advice...women not deer...
I was told by a very wise man once
"If you go fishing (or hunting in this case;)) and she ain't there when you come back Then she wasn't the keeper you were looking for anyway" |
RE: UGH I need advice...women not deer...
I have been married for 22 years. I hunted before I got married and still today and I hunt every chance I get to. She use to get mad when i got ready to leave and i have to admit sometimes she still does today. She gun hunts with me now and that has made things easier. Try to get your g/f interested in hunting. I know she doesnt have much time for hunting if she's in RN school, but she wont be there forever. Every year I take a trip to Ohio after Thanksgiving she still gets upset a couple of days before I leave. She is in RN school this year and cant go,next will be different though. Well good luck is about all I can offer, but I know where your coming from. By the way I'm a RN to.

RE: UGH I need advice...women not deer...
Have a good time on your trip. If she answers the phone when you get back, there you go, if not, the next one might.
|
RE: UGH I need advice...women not deer...
Enjoy an extra day of hunting and tell her to have flowers waiting for you to when you get home cause of the hurt she caused... then you will think about forgiving her.You've got to mess with their minds... it seems to keep them happy for some strange reason. If the flower thing doesn't get her laughing... trade her in for one with a sense ofhumor.[8D] :D

RE: UGH I need advice...women not deer...
You have to go early. She should realize it's important to you and lay off. Hunting with you father is a big deal.
Buy here a bottle of wine or something (but not too expensive!) She'll get over it. Hope it works out. |
RE: UGH I need advice...women not deer...
leave early she'll get over it.
two things my father told me before i got married. don't go home immediately after work each day, vary the time within a half hour andthis will give you a little leway on the old "where've you been, you're late" at the beginning of a relationship...if you stop for a few at happy hour, go everyday even if you don't feel like it, cause once you're single "routine" starts getting changed other thing changes will follow. |
RE: UGH I need advice...women not deer...
Go hunting...that's what ex's are for!
|
RE: UGH I need advice...women not deer...
I told my girlfriend from the start that I will always love hunting more than her. It was a joke, but it got the point across about how serious I take my hunting. 4 years later she knows that it's my passion. Last year i hunted close to 50 days with most of those days being weekends and she's still around.

RE: UGH I need advice...women not deer...
If she really cares about you...she shouldn't mind you spending time with your dad...if that bothers her, dump her...
|
RE: UGH I need advice...women not deer...
She has to under stand your passion, just as you do hers. If she doesn't understand how important hunting is to you then you need to let her know. And if she don't like it, oh well, in my opinion. She cant expect you to stop doing the things you love to do. If she wants you to stop, then she needs to hit the road, as that to me would be just the start of what else she will have you NOT doing. Its not like your going out bar hoping, your going hunting with the guys. I have an X wife also but it had nothing to do with hunting. My wife now never hunted, then she got with me and I got her into hunting, but just with a gun. GL man, I hope it works out.

RE: UGH I need advice...women not deer...
Some of you guys are killing me ....lol ...MOTOWN ... man, I miss those one-liners!!!:D
A few truths here .... 1. She doesn't HAVE to understand you, she is a woman, you are a man ....MOST wont understand.......if you play that angle, you may lose a good woman .. she just has to accept that it doesn't change your feelings about her ...she has to support what you love 2, YOU need to show the same to her..... don't try and understand her 100% ....just know what's important to her (in the off-season [8D]) and act accordingly ...she will eventually follow your example ... 3. Take her to dinner as often as possible :D... 4. Buy flowers, even tho they die in a few days and are wayyyyyyy to expensive:eek:..... I have gottenlots ofmileage out of them ;)........ 5. Give her love notes and cards once in awhile Last but not least .......put the seat down [8D] |
