I need some advice from fellow Dis Boarders. My Best friend and and I live on separate coasts. She's in CA and I'm in Ma. She is a Disneyland nut, and goes with her 9 year old son all of the time. They frequently stay, just the two of them for 2-5 days at a time, in a hotel. She works hard, and money is tight, but this is a splurge and she loves to do this with her son. Her DH really doesn't like Disney, them parks, or people much for that matter LOL. He's a bit of a recluse, and honestly kinda grouchy all of the time. So they just go by themselves. All of the time. I recently inherited a small amount of money from an elderly relative's passing. My BFF's dream has been to go to Disney World with my kids and I, but she couldn't afford the trip. I decided that I would like to make that happen, and offered to fly her and her son to Orlando this spring. I would get her the plane tickets, rooms, park tickets and a quick service dining plan. My kids and I would meet her, and we would have a great once in a life time trip! My DH was fine with it, since he really didn't want to go. I just received a text from her that her DH wants to go. I don't blame him. I was hoping for a girl's only trip though, but of course I would respect their wishes. Ok, to get to the point, What is my financial obligation to her DH. Since I offered to pay for her and her son, do I need to include DH? I don't want to be insensitive, but we had never discussed husbands when we dreamed about going together, since the guys were not into it at all. I should note that I have flown out to CA several times to go to DL with her and her son. We stay in hotels, eat out, etc.. and her husband never joins us. If I am being honest, the wind has been taken out of my sails, because if her DH is coming, it won't be the same. Sorry for the long post....
