I took my kids and left last night..

yeah but it turned out to be like two months lol. And honestly I think its time for that again. I have a person in my life that just seems to not understand LOGIC. I bust my rear at home taking care of the baby, going to school, keeping the house clean and todays a day I just want to freakin scream!

I think that was a very good idea it gives you all time to take a breather. If you had stayed the tension could have escalated to an argument where things could habe been said that you all regretted later. Enjoy your time out.

omg, tch tch tch, you made my heart stop a beat there babe. Lol yes many times do i just need a few hours alone and i too have a past record of just disappearing when things get too much . So far, i have always come home, good job he knows me well lol. blessed be

Hi Raven Am sorry things got to that point but guess we all need our own space at times. Sometimes when I get too stressed out or feel I need to get away I just go to Glastonbury for a few days and a friend looks after my dogs for me-but when I get back from Glastonbury I feel I can cope with whatever the world has to throw at me and feel more of a boost to do the things I may of got lax about-bright blessings littleowl

I have never been in quite that situation but sometimes it just seems like when one of the couple is really stressed out its good for theother just to take a day or two away to allow the stressed one to cool off a bit. Idid that for one weekendonce when my husband was stressed out over losing a job. I just packed mytwo kids off to my moms house Where we stayed for just the weekend and came back and my husband had found a new job. He was his old self again and I was also refreshed and ready to carry on as usual.

That's really nice of you to give him the space that he needs so it isn't so stressful on everyone. Plus that gives you all a break from it too. The way it sounded at first I thought you just took the kids and left him for good. It's good that you aren't having marital problems. Many times work just isn't the only problem.

i never actually do it and i don't have a child yet... i just don't have the heart to leave my hubby no matter how angry i am with him and vice versa... so we just cool down and start talking about it to find a solution... but we never actually leave each other no matter how angry we are...

I have never left on a whim. When we go somewhere, it is together. If I want to go somewhere and hubby doesn't I will remind him that I can always go alone. That usually changes his mind.

I do now when I want to go somewhere I just go But I never used to it was my Ex Husband that was never there as he loved his Social Life and freedom I was the one stressed and carrying on while he had the time of his Life When the Kids where smaller and I lived near my Mum I used to pack the Kids in the Car and get away from him for the Day the kids used to love that

oh and i thought this was really something serious!!! thanks to God you are fine with your hubby. :) Sometimes it is really ncie to just "go" and leave for a short vacation, a change of environment will do you good too.

Gees girl, you had me going there for a bit. I was worried about you...lol. Silly me. Glad things are ok and I hope your hubby got to clear his head a bit while you were away. I'd love to be able to take off like that but my animals keep me grounded...that's not a bad thing. I love my guys.

I'm glad you were able to get away from it all even if it's just to be for a little while. I think at times we could all use a "Time-out" from family members...When my mother was alive I sure as heck wanted to pick up, pack up and outta here but just couldn't

Sometimes we all need to have a little break from each other, especially when we are stressed out. I does tend to clear the air a bit having a break, and our minds can clear out a bit. It's nice to that you got a chance to spend some time with your aunt.

when the stresses are so hard to stand,I always leave myself alone and think a lot of things. and I found I was tired and I wanna quit everything that I had an obligation to accomplish. but then,I went to believe that life is like this.

Wow! You got me going there for a minute! I think if one partner is stresed it can be very upsetting for the other and the kids. If the other partner is agreeable this kind of time apart can be very useful as long as no one feels neglected and the kids aren't anxious about it. We all have our different ways of working through stress- with me and my wife we cut ourselves off from what's doing it to us ('grown-up'kids, work, etc.,) and relax togther but I fully understand that it's different strokes for different folks. Hope you have a good weekend and things work out.
