Well my wonderfull fiance said we can go to a pool tourney for our honeymoon. Anyone know of anything going on in april. ...
I have an idea: DON'T DO IT! Have a normal honeymoon that you both can enjoy. Go to France or the Great Barrier Reef or the Alps or Hawaii or Brazil or where ever.
Skip the pool tourney this time. You'll have plenty of vacations that can be pool related.
IMO, a honeymoon is not a standard vacation, it's your first real experience as husband and wife. DO NOT GO TO A POOL TOURNEY. Sit on the beach and enjoy each other's company. Talk, drink, "sleep in" etc. But focus on each other.
It sounds like she is a great find, being willing to go to a pool tourney for your honeymoon. But you should reward her by doing something romantic, not by actually going to the tourney. There are times to "trade" theme vacations, but it's not on your honeymoon.
Lastly, in the future, if you are ever in an argument or serious disagreement, you can bet that you'll get something like: "I've been doing everything you wanted ever since we were married - starting with that pool tournament on our honeymoon." Or something like that. IMO, it is a much better idea to prevent even the slightest resentment that the honeymoon was "all for you." You don't want to start off on the wrong foot.
Am I the only voice of reason here?
