I am not allowed to ride coasters this year!

D1985 - The lesson is:  "Marry someone reasonable, with whom you can compromise and share." 

NLC - I used to be one of those people that never would go to a park alone.  I recently went to So Cal for a long weekend by myself when my friend bailed at the last minute.  I was hesitant about being going to the parks by myself, but I had a blast anyway.   If alone is the only way you can go, and you really want to go, then I say go for it.

Cedar Point gets "twisted for 2002"

Danny1985, I think you *may* have missed the real point...COMPROMISE!  If you can work out mutually-beneficial agreements, the relationship only gets better.  Not going to say we haven't had "disagreements" about my coastering-time, we HAVE....but if you look through the responses here, the "happy" people are those that work WITH their partners - or have gotten more "compatible" partners ;) 

Some of you people are pathetic.  I guarantee that every married man on this site, given the choice between coasters and his wife, would pick his wife.  Coasters are fun but finding the right woman makes you truly happy.

You can't spell "dishonorable" without "honorable."

NoLimitsChic - GO!  (As long as it's cool with your significant other.)  Especially if you are an outgoing person...I go solo to parks 80% of the time and while I prefer to have my wife with me, I usually have a better time (at parks only) without her because I can run the park at my pace - get there an hour before opening and stay to closing.  My wife just doesnt have the love of coasters or the endurance to run around the park all day without having to go back to the hotel for a nap...

NoLimitChic, I would suggest going to Disney for a week by yourself. There are pluses and minuses with going by yourself. On the negative side, your by yourself, but chances are you will run into some friendly people. On the positive side, you can do and ride Anything You Want!, plus as many times as you want:) Go for it, if i feels right.

Gravity is your friend!

To all the haters, when I said that I was only joking. In fact, the only couple i know(that are married and get along) are the people that compromise-rollergator-and understand one anothers point of view. sorry for the misunderstanding

My wife absolutely hates most roller coasters now.  See, she would go on mostly everything with no problems, until I took her to PKD a few years ago.  First we went on Volcano, and it scared her because she'd never been launched.  Then I took her right onto FOF without knowing of the headbanging that would follow.  Needless to say, ever since she has been claustrophibic and scared of any coaster with OTSR's.

So I was still safe since she liked woodies.  That was until she rode the Cheetah @ Wild Adventures.  She doesn't like her lap bar stapled, but usually keeps her belt pretty tight.  Well, the Gerstlaur trains don't have belts, so she got awesome air in the back seat.  This scared her to death and now she won't ride woodies.  As far as hypers, she's never ridden and is completely scared of hem as well.

I recently got her on Ninja at SFMM and she was okay, and she also doesn't mind the front seat of woodies as long as they have PTC trains (or any others w/ seat belts in addition to lap bars).

My wife and I usually take 2 or 3 small vacations (one weekend or so) a year.  Last year we went to Miami to visit family (and of course the DBH), to a spa resort for our anniverary (her choice), and to LA for my bday to go to SFMM, but I had to take her shopping on Melrose to make up for it.  I say, let them do some of what they want as a compromise.  I used to drop my wife off at the outlet mall while I went to IOA for a couple hours.  I got my fix, and she got to buy clothes!
