Re: Question for married women: how do you feel about your husband's guys trip to Vegas? [Theo911]
Why is she not allowing it? There are myriad reasons she may have said no, some or all of which may or may not be valid.

Is she concerned about the cost?
How is your behavior (have you a history of daliances with other women, a past alcohol problem or gambling issues)?
Do you already go on a guys fishing trip, a guys hunting trip, and 5 guys triathlon weekends a year?
How well does she know and like the company you would be keeping?
Is it a bad time to be away from work (proposed layoffs, busy time etc.)?
Have you family obligations - which includes something like sticking her with sole responsibility for seven kids for a week?
Are you a persistent workaholic and she'd rather you used your vacation time to spend some quality time with her?
Would she just miss you like hell?

Without knowing the reasoning - and a little more about your relationship - that's not a call any of us are equipped to make.

If the shoe were on the other foot, would you allow her to go under the same circumstances?
ETA: Would I allow my other half to go? Absolutely, were that amount of money not an issue in our case. I trust him implicitly, he does a lot for me in our day-to-day life, he supports my athletic endeavours, and isn't generally frivolous about finances nor a shirker of family obligations. It would be a rare treat, and I wouldn't begrudge it at all. I'm also lucky in that he'd rather go with me than any of the guys, so I get the best of everything :o)
