[size 2] Fishing for alot of men is a chance to have time away from there wife/girlfriend's to spend time with there male friends and enforce male bonds and so on.[/size]
[size 2] I have never invited a women fishing, if a past girlfriend wanted to go of course I would take her but I never asked.[/size]
[size 2] My reason is that one above. Not to disrespect women but when me and the guys go out we get rowdy and drink and enjoy being men. [/size]
[size 2] Then of course at the end of the day we return to our wives and/or girlfriends with our stories[/size]
[size 2] I think it is admirable that you want to involve your wife but I would make sure she really wants to do it first. Otherwise you may open a can of worms ( so to speak[sly])[/size]
[size 2] My wife does not like fishing, she doesn't even like to eat fish!
( I am putting her through counseling[crazy] )[/size]
[size 2] But in a way that is good. Men in my opinion, need to be able to go out and be men once in awhile. Get dirty, slimmy and smelly and grunt. Ah Ah Ah.[/size]
[size 2] I think that helps release some of the testostorone and helps level men out. If a man's only stress relief is fishing and he takes his wife or girlfriend that might ruin it. There is nothing wrong in keeping that to yourself. [/size]
[size 2] Just make sure obviously that you do plan equal time with your wife/girlfriend doing something you both enjoy or maybe something she enjoys.[/size]
[size 2] That's my two cents[
] I have been married for 11 years so something must be working.[/size]
