[Choose #3] Hi Divebuddies! My hubby and I are best friends and dive buddies. We never disagree on dive days as we are so happy to be diving. I’m curious, do you dive with your spouse during a disagreement / argument? How do you resolve it?
|
|
|
[Choose #2] I chose to not torture my wife by NOT teaching her to dive :)
|
|
|
[Choose #2] My wife understands my diving addiction needs, and is an enabler.
|
|

|
|

|
|
|
[Choose #2] I absolutely love the comments about one in the relationship not diving but being supportive.. That’s awesome that you have support and awesome that you don’t "PUSH" the other to get certified if for whatever reason, he/she doesn’t care to.

[Choose #2] My wife and I are polar opposites. When it comes to hobbies, she doesn’t have many outside interests and, for the most part, if I like it, she doesn’t. 17 years together and still going strong. Luckily, hobbies don’t define a relationship.
