New Year's Plans - How to convince DH?

We have access to a 2 bedroom apartment in Manhattan....at least until I'm out of a job (which could happen within the next 6months).

He gripes everytime we go into the city. I book the apartments with his friends so he has people to play with. Eventually he loves it.

I booked for Thanksgiving so we can take the kids to the parades - even though DH hates crowds.

How do I get him there for New Year's? We wouldn't be in Times Square, we'd be in the apartment over looking the river. We would take the kids. Any ideas?

Umm don't tell him, load everyone into the car and drive. By the time he figures it out it will be too late Chat Icon

Will he be more motivated to go if you invite some of his friends or family ?

I'd just reason with the man..."this is the last year we'll have this opportunity and I'm really looking forward to it..." that sort of thing. And if that doesn't work I'd tell him that me and the kids will be in the city and really hope he joins us, but if he doesn't that's his loss! And I wouldn't be bluffing either.

I've just enlisted his best friend's wife. They have 3 kids & always have problems getting a babysitter. She's going to talk to her DH & get him to talk to mine.

I've used the "It may be the last time" since May. We've been going in almost 1-2 times a month with friends.Chat Icon

Cross your fingers!!
