Re: Do you DRAG your husband out shopping ???

I do. But, that's because I am pretty insecure and don't like to be alone a lot. I get bored and sad. And he works long hours so it is out time to hang out the weekends.

Re: Do you DRAG your husband out shopping ???

It depends. DH has to work weekends twice per month, so on those weekends that he is working I shop alone. But I am totally fine with it.

Sometimes I take him food shopping so we can divide and conquer and get out of there sooner.

If I do shop alone, I often leave the heavy items in my car and he brings them in when he gets home.

If it is clothes shopping, usually I go alone or with friends.

Re: Do you DRAG your husband out shopping ???

OMG, it's STRESSFUL to shop with him if it's shopping for ME things. SO much more relaxing to go alone. But stuff for US is a different story. He's very proactive then.

Re: Do you DRAG your husband out shopping ???

Nope, I like to go do what I have to do on my own anyway! It's much more efficient!

Re: Do you DRAG your husband out shopping ???

No way, it is more pleasant when he is not with me. He only goes when he wants to go. The only store I sometimes push him on is BJ's, but if he really did not want to go, he wouldn't. He loves Bj's.

Re: Do you DRAG your husband out shopping ???

i always go alone- all shopping -even furniture -

Re: Do you DRAG your husband out shopping ???

Because I don't drive, yet, DH & I go grocery shopping together. If I am meeting friends at the mall, he will drop me off and then come back & the meet me later. If we have to shop for a gift together (Christmas & birthdays) we go with a specific idea in mind and only hit one or two stores and then we are out of there.

Re: Do you DRAG your husband out shopping ???

no, i don't drag him. If he wants to go, he goes, if not, he stays home. Since DH and I are not home alot together (mostly only Saturdays), i try to get any shopping that has nothing to do with him done when I'm on my home.

Re: Do you DRAG your husband out shopping ???

OMG we go grocery shopping and to Target etc together, it's easier that he picks me up from the train station and we both go. But we don't do shopping the same so it can be frustrating.

But next week I am going to the mall to do *serious* shopping, like lots of trying on clothes type shopping and he's going. He's going to be sooooo bored and i'm going to feel really rushed because he'll be standing around doing nothing.

Re: Do you DRAG your husband out shopping ???

We do our shopping together, because well, if I let DH dress himself, it wouldn't be pretty No, seriously I do help him shop and so sometimes I'll look for clothes myself. We usually do joint trips to the mall. But if I have heavy shopping to do we will split up. Or I'll go with a girlfriend if DH doesn't need anything.

Re: Do you DRAG your husband out shopping ???

My DH does not like to go shopping. I prefer shopping by myself b/c when I'm with him I feel like he is rushing me. However if I am going shopping and know exactly what I want, he doesn't mind coming along.

Re: Do you DRAG your husband out shopping ???

No. If he volunteers, he can come, and some things we generally DO shop for together (groceries, stuff for the house), but I don't drag him shopping at all.

Re: Do you DRAG your husband out shopping ???

No, because if he doesnt want to go ,he won't, and I can't force him. Just like when he wants to go and I am tired or busy and I won't go.
