a random but amazing fact
The Zildijan cymbal company has been handed down to family members since 1623, an astounding 14 generations.

My wife who normally detests road trips, decided she wants to drive to Rehoboth tomorrow, see the ocean for 20 mins, and drive straight back home.
Am I the bad selfish partner for saying I don't want to go, or is she the bad selfish partner for implying that I'm the bad partner for not wanting to do it?

If this is true, then I will require more information. Who makes the car buying decisions?

Can it be both?

I did that once..about 25 years ago.. just got in my car and drove to the eastern shore..took a look at ocean..stood on beach..and drove back
Since then I have driven to the eastern shore many times but I find the trip a pain in the ass and can’t imagine doing it just to look at sea…with a few notable exceptions say the bay bridge it’s a pretty unscenic ugly drive..
At least have lunch somewhere!

This was my line of thought, too. She said "You drive all the way to Shenandoah to hike." But that's like half the distance and the drive is much prettier.
Also, too cold to eat outdoors and we're not eating indoors, COVID.

Basically you need to come up with a better alternative for her to driving 7 hours to look at the ocean…

I have definitely driven to the ocean just to look at it for a hot minute and go back so I won’t say there’s anything jerky about the idea. But I also didn’t insist other people do it. But I also, also think that there’s nothing wrong with asking your partner to do this and a refusal can definitely be really much more jerky than the request.
So yeah, “can it be both”? Try therapy.
