Do you have children that need looking after?
If not, get her to take up golf.
I used to whine at Mr Mimms for leaving me alone so much.
Now we both play - rarely together - and we're both happy.

I had this issue. My partner and I worked out wht times were good. An early round on sunday meant I could get back for breakfast. Also playing a quick 5 holes or some practice between my work finishing and her getting home from work was the other. You just need to sit down and work it out, my now wife is very understanding! It helps if you have a club where its easy to play when you want and a wife who happens to work different hours to you (and no kids)

All depends on your relationship and circumstances I guess.
If you arer married with kids, then yes, she has a fair point. You have a family and spending time with them and supporting your missus at weekends is fair enough.... you signed up for it so do the right thing
If it's just a casual relationship then I think you can probably take more of a stand.
Other question is do you actually want it to last (the realtionship not the golf!)? If so, then a few compromises are needed on both sides.

Spot on.
I am married and 3mths ago my wife gave birth to our gorgeous little boy and life is very different for me. I used to play golf 2 or 3 times a week, now I play once every two or three weeks and enjoy my rounds SOOOOOO much more.
If you are in a casual relationship then yes its a case of give and take. Does she have her own hobbies? My wife has horses so before the baby Id go for a round of golf and she'd play 'My little ponies'. You must have your own time and not spend every moment of every day together as it will infuriate you both.
You need to ask yourself 'are her demands unreasonable'? Do you have give and take, or is it all one sided?

Snap. My little girl is 3 months old. My golf has gone through the floor, but like you, I'm enjoying playing every couple of weeks and appreciate that my wife is happy for me to disappear for a few hours, because she knows I enjoy it.
Back to the OP, only you know the circumstances and what the "right" thing to do is...
<br>
spot on as all the details are never revealed.<br>
On saying that my advice
would be to communicate and mutually agree parameters, she's obviously miffed your away a lot, but if it's agreed then theres no surprises, speaking of surprises do one for her as well, flowers/meal/romantic walk etc etc anything out the norm as I think she is feeling unapreciated.............just a guessnow where was I, oh yes, dont take advice from an internet forum especially one for golf
fixed that for you
This ^^^^^^ and I play more now than I ever did. She's even taking me for a golf holiday to Scotland in October....Castle Stuart and Royal Dornock here we come.

All our holidays are now golf based!
And he still gets his "boys" golf weekends away too
Dornoch :ears:
I would check with Dornoch if they will be on winter course the dates you are up?
My club go onto winter tee's 2nd week of Oct, they may do as well.

I agree... just tell her that once she's finished cooking, cleaning, shopping, washing, tumble drying, ironing and making herself look nice for you that she's welcome to join you for a round
OR simply go for...
"Darling, if you managed your time a bit better you too would be able to play golf"
Should work well if your sofa is comfy ;-)
