is getting lied to by someone who doesn't really have a clue what they are saying.
My wife's desire and ability to travel the world with me was a deal breaker in our decision to marry.
After she got to sail and cruise with me, she discovered it could be downright uncomfortable and oh btw, she gets sick at the drop of a hat. And oh yeah, it turns out she's a compulsive nester and dragging her away from the nest is like pulling hen's teeth.
Unfortunately, when we married, I did not yet have the boat to actually test her desire to be aboard as compared to her desire to capture me.
Her cruising with me is no longer a deal breaker. But by god when I get the chance, I am gone. She can come along or not. Matters not to me. Unfortunately, in the meanwhile our children whom I would dearly love to raise up as sailors would rather stay at home with mom than sail with me. Whereas if she had bought into it, the kids would have no choice and we wouldn't have a lot of marital and family stress over whether or not I will have family with me at the boat on any given weekend.
