Help me convince her to let me take my clubs on our honeymoon??

Question

we are getting married in August and going to Portugal for the honeymoon . i hinted it might be nice to play some golf while I'm out there (she doesn't play). even the hint put her in a bad mood can you think of any arguments that might work?? have you used any arguments that have worked ?? ladies what arguments would work on you??

Answer 1

hmmmmm . . . I bought my wife a car for Christmas and a time share in Orlando near Disney.  For the most part, I can play golf when I want right now; however, I'm not so sure that would placate her enough to play golf on a honeymoon.   Having said that, if you find a way to do it, then you need to start figuring out how you will play golf on her birthday, your anniversary, and mother's day.  If you can do that and still stay married than you are the man!!!!!!

Answer 2

You don't need convincing so that you may take your clubs. You really need a head examination as you are casting the first stone for a bad marriage. There are times and places for taking clubs. The Honeymoon is neither the time or the place.

Answer 3

Toughnot, thanks for my daily laugh. I needed that.

Answer 4

Instead of taking your clubs, buy her an all day spa pass and rent a set while she's doing that. Tell her that is your present to her and you would like the round of golf as yours.  My wife didn't play, but she would fix a basket of drinks, fruit, crackers, and sandwiches and ride along. Of course, that wasn't on my honeymoon.

Answer 5

Tell her that if you were marrying Natalie Gulbis she would let you play.

Answer 6

You are out of luck pal. Don't even try it.

I spent part of my honeymoon at the Sheraton in Maui, right next to one of the courses they play for the PGA tour. I was not stupid enough to mention it. Twenty years later, I'm still married.

On the other hand, I still haven't played that course.  :(

Answer 7

Aramis-i love golf as much as the next guy but don't fight it.  It is your honeymoon.  You only get one of these with your wife.  There is no need for the clubs on the honeymoon.  We went to Maui for our honeymoon.  Stayed right by the course. It killed me but I wouldn't change the time we spent together.  Enjoy your wedding, honeymoon and new bride.  Golf will be waiting!!!  CONGRATULATIONS.

Answer 8

Whatever you tell her is going to be a lie so try the "terminally ill, I meant to tell you sooner" lie. Don't forget the tears.

Answer 9

Sack up and bring 'em. Tell her to go shopping and the spa while you play. Are you going to Algarve? Dude...

Answer 10

OK now is a real good time to set her straight on how this whole marriage thing is going to work.  You are going to play golf when and where you want.  You will theoretically be spending the rest of your lives together, and if you want a four or five hour break for some recreation on your own then you should have it.  Promise that you will be so attentive to her needs on the honeymoon that she will be glad to be rid of you for a few hours.  If she can't stand to be away from your side she can ride along in the cart and get some sun.

Answer 11

Okay, traditionally a honeymoon has to do with intimacy. Talk to her and tell her how much she means to you. Ask her what she needs for the trip to feel special. Tell her you are so attracted to her and plan to spend as much time showing her what a goddess she is. Once she tells you what she needs...( it will be time feeling special as a couple and lots of s*x! smile) Make sure she knows that you will do those things, sightseeing etc. Perhaps you can say, " How about if I golf early in the morning so that we can have the whole rest of the day to ourselves?" I don't golf, but lived in southern Spain, and I will tell you that that area has the best golfing in the world, and you will regret it if you don't golf. Try to include her in your golfing as well. Tell her you want to share with her every aspect of yourself, to make you a stronger couple. Make her feel included. She just doesn't want to be a "golf widow", and understandably on her honeymoon. So as long and you two communicate, and make sure each of you can get your needs met, it should be fine...after all, she knew you golfed when she met you...she can't make you choose golf or her...tell her you love her too much to make her choose between you or something she loves...Tell her she can have the best of both worlds....the husband of her dreams and a happy man who gets to golf in Portugal! Ravage her body daily, let her take you wherever she wants, and it's ok for you to get what you want to....Love is a give and take...EVERYONE gets to have their needs met. Welcome to marriage! Good Luck.

Answer 12

hmmm i cant think of anything that you could say but maybe you should say that it would be nice to go on holiday again there and maybe then you could take your clubs with you
