I am 23, married, 2 kids, 2 dogs, house, 2 1/2 acres of land, pt college student and I NEED A BREAK! I just want to run away for a weekend! Go back to my home town drink it up with my old hs friends. Is this normal to feel like this? Am I being selfish? I've been out with my friends (no kids, no husbands) once in 2 1/2 years. I don't think my husband will go for it though. My home town is about 100 miles south of us. But we both have our families there. So he knows the area, too. I am a housewife so I am with my kids 24/7. My toddler cries if I even walk outside without him.....ugh!

you are not being selfish, being a housewife and dealing taking care of your children 24/7 entitles you to have some alone time for yourself every once in a while, otherwise you will lose yourself and your identity......

I don't think you are selfish for wanting a weekend to yourself. Especially since you are a housewife, its perfectly natural that you would want a break, in fact you deserve one. Being a full time wife and mother is the toughest job there is. I think you should take a weekend for yourself, it will be better for you in the long run. Good luck.

Becky.............you need some "you" time. It is not selfish, in fact it will help your marriage. If you continue on like this you may become engulfed by the atmosphere and it will create distance between you and your hubby. You are not a traditional baby making machine house wife............you are a woman.................a human being..........a human being who has needs!!! Hope this helps.
