Maybe he is a homosexual

I'd say that he's feeling the pressure of marriage.
If you're the wife and are asking I take it it's because it wasn't a common decision. In which case it is totally selfish.
Now, if you're the man asking, I suppose it's because you need a break from your married life, the children, your wife, and possibly work.
So, although it could sound selfish, I can still understand that being a parent myself.
However, I think that discussing it with your wife, trying to explain to her why you do need a break to recharge your batteries and reassure her, that you're not going away on a sex trip!
It actually does help couples to have a break away from each other from time to time, to do their own things, to see family or even to stay with friends.
It avoids the marriage to become dull, boring and stressful which of course lead to all sorts of tensions and eventually to the relationship to fail.
If you're the woman, try and be understanding.
Specially if you're having troubles in your couple.
You have to be able to trust the person you have chosen to spend your life with and have children with. If you can't, then there is a problem.
You could try some marriage counselling before you/he goes on a break.
Anyhow, living in each other's pockets is never the best thing to do.
Going on a short break to have some breathing space should be just for that, and should be able to get you closer, appreciate your partner, with his qualities and faults.
Good luck.

He will probably returned home and sees a divorce file from his wife. Anyway,what do u think of a WOMAN with a husband and three kids who goes on vacations by herself?
Treat people the way u wanna be treated.

It depends entirely on the couple. My parents visited all the common places that they wanted to visit years ago. He now prefers African and middle-eastern countries while my mother prefers Europe and America. They have an understanding between them now where they split vacations between doing things together and going off and doing their own thing. Each is free to do what they want without dragging along another person who's really not into it. You need a healthy relationship in order for this to work, and one in which both trust each other implicitly, but it can work.
However, if one partner is doing this exclusively then the other would have cause for concern, IMO.

SImple. My husband did that for years leaving me alone with the kids. One day I got up and did it and left him with the kids a weekend. He was furious! So... I divorced him. Who needs that crap?
Here I am 7 years later remarried and just came back from a cruise my new husband took me one (6 months ago I went on another one with the kids).
Show him this and tell him there is only so much a woman will take. For every man who leaves his wife and kids there is a wonderful man out there who yes will marry you with kids (and I have 5) and take you on wonderful vacations that your ex would not because he was too selfish to think maybe you, too needed a break.

I'm surprised by most of the answers here.
Why?...Coz most people would imagine he's fooling around?? You don't have to go on vacation to fool around. Maybe he just likes a bit of time to himself....I often go away and visit family and friends without my partner.....doesn't mean I'm playing around. I think time away from each other every now and then is healthy for a relationship, makes us miss each other. I couldn't stand to be tied to someone 24/7. Everyone's different....I wouldn't go making assumptions without knowing the full story. God, no wonder so many partnerships are in trouble these days...

I think while he is gone you should chane th e locks file the papers and find a man that knows what a great wife you can be. Three kids tells me that you are busy most of the time and you should have a loving caring husband not a boob that runs off

Sounds like he's looking for something other than a wife and 3 kids.

Selfish? Low on cash? A rocky marriage? Possibly taking another on vacation with him? They take separate vacations?---there are some who do this....the men go to mexico, and the women to beaches or on cruises. It is most likely not the best thing to do bc he could be reconnecting with his wife each vacation instead.

Hunting or fishing with his buddy's for the weekend ain't no thing, but if hes going on "real" vacations, his family should most definitely be included. Otherwise, he ain't a man.

It would seem a bid odd and suspicious to me at first...but.... I guess we all need our alone time even when we are dedicated to our families.
As a wife I would feel like he was having an affair but as a single woman I totally understand spending time away from it everyone from time to time!
