Is my husband selfish? We have a vacation home near the river. In the summer months we invite friends with us to spend the weekend on the.?
River. It is very fun. We go wakeboarding, wake surfing, water skiing, and we tow the kids in the inner tube. We all have a great time. Here is the problem....when summer is over, I like to go to the house during fall and winter and just do maintenance and enjoy the peace and quiet. After a whole summer of entertaining guests, I am ready to go to the house and not entertain but have family time and look after the house.
My husband wants me to take him wakeboarding all year round, he has a dry suit to keep warm while in the freezing water but for me who has to drive the boat, with the cold wind and all, I'm miserable. It's soooo cold in the winter there. If I don't take him then he wants us to invite people year round so they will take him in the water, but then I have to entertain year round. It's tiring for me. Additionally when I drive the boat, he yells at me about everything I do wrong driving the boat. One more thing...he is so addicted to wakeboarding that he says we don't go to the river house often enough and that the kid's weekend extracurricular activities should be cancelled so that we can go more often, but he shouldn't have to cancel his other interests like motorcycle racing and go kart racing that also take up entire weekends. Currently we go about 15 weekends per year and a little more than half of that is spent in the summer wakeboarding.

I have an idea that might work and help keep the peace. Why not let your husband go with his friends on some of those weekends and then pick out some selected weekends where its just the two of you or with your kids. He is being a bit selfish and I am envious of you for having a place on a river. I think that's awesome.
