 Re: The girls night out debacle...
Whoops, having a smartphone doesn't mean the user is.
I read the OP a little closer Entropy and it's clear that yeah, we are talking about two pretty different scenarios. I'd be concerned for any overnight trip my husband took doing an activity in which he'd never done before...like if he was all "I'M GOING HUNTING!" especially as he's an animal lover. Her husband has a point there.
I can't speak as to what her motivation is besides "going out," but I do sense her frustration with her husband/his friend in the uh...vagblocking of any activity that she and her girlfriend may try to do, and that this may be an escalation which isn't exactly a positive state of mind to be going out with and may in fact make a person emotionally susceptible.
In her case, I think there are red flags and precautions that she could take to make her husband more comfy (meeting him later, not crashing overnight, checking in etc.) or change the activity all together but if he keeps denying any time out at all, I'd hate to be all "pound sand" but...
