Tell your friend to join the foreign Legion. That will keep him out of any trouble.
My wife is the “queen of the spa” and I can tell you from experience that women have ZERO interest in having their “significant other” tagging along. It is their “special time” to be pampered and exchange stories about the “evil men” in their lives. That being said she is also a wife which means she has a natural aversion to allowing her hubby to have any semblance of fun outside of her perview. So the trick is to get the “spa woman” side to override “the nagging wife” side. The best way is to actually go with her one time…she won’t ever “allow” you to go again.  :roll:
She might also want some time “talking” and “bonding” and “getting close”. That might mean more than whether she gets to soak in some mud. She wants time with YOU, man. Cuz she loves ya and she wants to live life together with you and “share” things. After you put in some of that time, then you have points you can use for golf.

There is a practical piece of advice from Jeff Foxworthy that I think should be mentioned here…
If she ain’t happy, you ain’t happy.
And if she ain’t happy long enough then you ain’t happy with half your stuff…
in Canada a divorce tends to cost people about 80% of their assets.
Alternately you could do all the house work for several days and get the kids out of her hair. This does not minimize the need for the spa, wine and dinner, jewelry or flowers.
LMAO, Thanks for all the helpful advise guys. As usual I will do what I planed on from the beginning, I’m not one for taking advise. I posted this for entertainment. It’s fun to see what people think about relationships. I’m not really in any more “trouble†than usual. We are going to go on the trip, the great thing about it is it will be next month so it will be nice and cold outside which guarantees plenty of “inside timeâ€. Believe it or not my wife will probably enjoy the skeet shooting almost as much as me, and I may just get her to try golf. The only problem with that is if she likes it I won’t get to play with my buddies anymore… LOL my wife also knows me better than to think I am going to do the spa thing, I don’t like people touching me and I don’t like my skin softened up.
Yeah, I’m not very sensitive, but if I started acting sensitive my wife would probably get suspicious! We’ve been married ten years and I don’t see myself changing any time soon.

OUCH!
makes the concept of marriage very undesirable.
conservative outlook…… maybe the liberal canadian government wants marriage to be undesirable. makes social engineered change much easier.
I think that’s because of lawyer’s fees. If you can divorce amicably you’re much better off.
@froodster:
divorce amicably
Those two words will almost NEVER appear in the same sentence together. Otherwise, why divorce? :evil:
I think it can happen often. Even if you are unhappy with each other, if you are smart you can negotiate a fair deal that reflects what the courts would probably award without spending $80,000 on lawyers.
Another bit of wisdom….
Why are divorces so expensive?
BECAUSE THEY ARE WORTH IT! :mrgreen:
Then why are weddings so expensive :-P
Because brides WANT them to be :-)

Yeah I think it would be stupid to stay in a relationship for so long that the other person is so crazy angry that all they want to do is spite you and take all your money and belongings. If they are just a bitch you were silly to get married to that person.
