Hi Welshy
I'm a Welshy too! Reading your post I can just see the picture. If you've been married 30 years she was only 16 when you married - and had 4 children since. Sounds like she's making up for lost time and trying to do what she missed out on in her teens and twenties. It must be very exciting hitting the big city with a bus load of girls! I've personally seen the gangs of valleys girls hitting Cardiff on the weekend and they really do have a good time! But I would say they're just out for a laugh. I can well imagine how you're feeling, but there's not a lot you can do about it. If you try to stop her it'll just make her crave the excitement all the more. You say that she always gets the bus back - so it's not as though she's going off with anyone. I think you're just gonna have to grit your teeth and let her get on with it. Mind you, I'd draw the line at holidays -- now that WOULD be out of order! How long's she been doing this? The novelty might wear off.
Jools.

Certainly nothing wrong with how you feel. I feel it is "unhealthy" for a married couple to go out like this seperately all the time. My sister used to try to get me to go out with her and her girfriends when she divorced. I went a few times,but quickly saw how it wasnt good for my relationship. Men DO try to pick you up,and you get drunk,and it really IS just adding un-needed temptation to marriage.
My husband is the same as you,doesnt like to go out much. I decided to ONLY go out though when he is with me. For one,it makes me feel better cuz then if I'm hit on I can just say my husband is over there.But honestly,we hardly ever go out out like that...maybe twice a year.
Someone els every close to me hangs out in a bar a couple times a week with her husband.They are ALWAYS fighting over jealousy issues because of what happens at the bar. Yet,they dont stop going to the bar.
Make your feelings clear to your wife.It may cause a fight,but if she loves you,she'll see where you are coming from. She needs to start acting her age and acting like a wife and mother instead of going off getting drunk and acting like a 20 year old.
