If you have not drove a wife to divorce or drove a girlfriend out the door.....then you are not hunting hard enough!

Not to be an ass in any way BUT if you love her and want to make it work nut up and do what you need to as a man and husband..... pigs arent going anywhere.....get your personal life straight and make the needed sacrifices if its worth it to you.....thats the only advise i can give you.....

women are a dime a dozen, found only 2 that were worth 2 cents

Thank you all for the advise, very good stuff. I will be putting in a 100% towards our marriage, just like I said the day we got married, but I'm also going to keep hunting and taking care of dogs like I said I would before I got married. I have made it a point to not let my hobby over weight my relasionship. But at the same time I'm not giving it up because she has gotten bored with it and is taking new interest in life. There was once a time she enjoyed tagging along with me and no longer does. And that's fine. A Little separate activity sometimes is healthy. My point to her though is if I'm going to own them I have to hunt them. I will have to make time and balance it all out just like a couple of you had mention. I hope it all works out.    Well enough marriage drama I got on this forum to talking hunting and dogs ! Lol. Thank ya all

Very good points by a lot of guys, and I'm going to give an opinion not advice. I have applied some of the tactics I use in everyday life from work to marriage. I do investigations for a living and not criminal ones when someone gets hurt in my profession I'm the  one doing the root cause analysis to change things like corrective actions and policies and procedures to stop or better prevent it from happening again. Most of the time and I'm mean 90% of the time what ends up as the root cause is the lack of communication, from not wearing there protective equipment or not following the right procedures why they are not doing this because no one told them to, or they didn't know the procedure because they weren't taught too. So back to the marriage part if you come in from work or hunting and she is in a pissy mood and you look at her and walk away and go too bed the situation doesn't get better it either stays the same or gets worse. But if you give her five minutes to explain her self and truthfully listen, even if its because she broke a nail and you honestly don't give a flying F*^¥, just listen COMMUNICATE. Don't let it get you or her down, just talk about something you both might enjoy talking about to change the subject, hopefully change the mood cause if MOMMA is pissed everybody is that, is why this thread was started!!!!!

You must work in the oilfield

I been with my wife 8 years only married a few months but 8 years together , when we first got together I was hunting an fishing an rodeoinh before you came along , I'm not gonna stop cause you want me to so if you wanna stay then you can if you wanna go that's fine too,
I stay out all night hunting an fishing an she doesn't complain because she knows I was out doing what I said an I will be home when I'm done she's always welcome to come if she wants sometimes she does ,

We split up one time for a day or to she got mad about something an thought she was gonna get me to change I told her if you change your mind you know where I will be ... Few days later she came back an said she just thought she wanted to change lol

Alot of it has to do with trust I think , she likes to dance an me not so much so sometimes her an her friends go out to bar to dance fine with me dance with who ever she wants saves me from having too lol
Plus I trust her an I know she gonna be home

Don't be sorry in a few years that you didn't hunt more while you were stuck up her butt
Trust me if she gonna leave you over hunting ......she was gonna leave you sooner or later over sonething so might as well send her packing if she gonna leave over something simple like that

I will tell you things got hot between me and my wife and not in a good way. She said the dogs and hunting were the problem. I told her that I loved her and I would go shoot every dog if that would make her happy. If it would make her happy I would not have married her. Of course she did not want me to shoot the dogs. But It got us talking and let her know that I was serious about my marriage. I am not good at the sit down girl talking but this is what I do now and my wife is much happier. When she is talking and I just repeat back so you are saying ... I do not try to figure anything out at all. I just repeat back what she says. Most of the time she says I am got it and some times she tells me I got it wrong but she knows I am listening. Now to be honest I could care less about most of it but it is important for wives to know thier husbands listen. Plus I do listen so I can repeat back what she is saying. She can talk and talk then I repeat back what she was saying with a sentence. Life is much better now. It is amazing what just listening does.

[Rocking Y]

Well goodluck in the future with everything. Same thing almost happened to me until she ended up wanting to go and then we had to tie everything up to bring out the woods

[Rodeo]

i can feel your pain, my first wife and i had that problem too. it hard to say . i got my way

[bob]

There is a lot of opinions for sure , you and your wife get into church if you haven't already , if you have a smart phone download some sermons on family  ( pod cast), marriage is a decision , your not always gonna feel like loving her , there will be times you feel like choking her out LOL , find out what the bible says about marriage and family that is the most important opinion anyway , it will help you and your wife , if god is for you who can be against you , COTM has some good pod cast sermons on this subject , he's in Tulsa okla. but was from Texas , raised in Texas , Willie gorge , or gospel bill back in the day , marriage is work , no doubt , but with god he will walk you and your wife threw and you both will be better because of the learning , I wish you and your wife the best and if you need anything else you just pm me , GOD IS GOOD

[BigNoseKate]

I agree a lot with what Mrs Louisiana said! I don't know your story OR hers and she may have a legitimate argument, I just don't know, only you and her do. If she's not the type to get out in the woods then it is hard for me to understand what y'all do spend time together and bond, but that's just me. My guess is if she's always invited but she never goes, she was like that before y'all tied the knot. So if its nothing new, then my question would be why is this all of the sudden going to tear the two of you apart? It may be stemming from something else in your marriage, y'all may just have to sit down and have a talk about what all underlying issues there are IF there are any at all.

And gah dang!!! dont like to see so many miserable ppl out there!!! marriage isnt THAT bad!!

Poor Jared, I don't like it when goes w out me bc those are my dogs too, and I want to be in on the action!!!! I guess it's kind of opposite for us. Lol!!!!!
