Tennis

Why is that I don’t like the words ‘Am going for Tennis tonight”
I am the one who keeps chiding him that he need to be fit and hence ask to go out and play.
However, I don’t like it when he goes for a game.
It actually doesn’t affect any of my or our schedules at all.
He goes to play from 8pm to 10pm on a couple of week nights and from 7-9 on Sunday mornings.
The said times are when I am getting ready to put VK to sleep or are fast asleep.
I should mention that even when he sleeps late at night after his game, he is still the first to get up in the morning.
(Nah… me not a morning person at all:-)

Truly speaking I know and understand it’s good for him and would love to see him play.
At the same time, I hate it when he does the same.
I fume, fret, throw tantrums, even make a big scene and fight about it (yup.. I can be nasty!!!)
I just don’t know why I detest it though.
I jump with joy when he says “Tennis cancelled"

Am I worried, bored, insecure?
But no one of these can be the answer as I am in deep slumber at those times.
And I love tennis too!! So nothing to do with the game as such!

Seems quite weird and just can’t orient my thoughts on this issue.

You know,I am the same too? I hate it when hubby goes away for a game, tennis, badminton, swim anything. I can relate to it and I think its to do with the fact that, he is going away while you are home following the same routine! At least for me, its that! I don't pursue a hobby like him and my life is my kids and so when he does it I can't take it! I know its bad...but hey, its fine to think our way too!!
Just going through your archives:-)
