Pamela was fantastic. She cared about her kids and husband, but she also cared about herself and recognised that she was unhappy and tried to do something about it.

I liked Pamela best because of her support for Daniel and realizing the men's need to be on their own for a bonding trip.

I know the feeling, it takes a strong woman. sending you some love from another mother who has been there and even has the t-shirt!

She is understandably upset by his need for additional time away from home, but gives in selflessly and adheres to the single mom role when needed.

I feel that on a deep level. My little girls and I are home all day without their dad. Whenever he mentions going out, I will always say "okay, have fun. I love you" and mean it, but man it really bugs me sometimes.

I am a new mum and a stay at home mum for now. It's really hard to watch my husband go out everyday to work, then hang with the guys on some Fridays. Sometimes I try to be cool and other times I flip lol. So I understand Rachel on a whole deep level. Lol

Rachel was more realistic. She express her frustrations in the way she finds best.

I'm all for Pamela. That power to understand men when they misbehave takes a ton of time to master. She has this charisma that makes her an appealing personality to men.
Happy reading,
Gelli xoxo

I think Pamela was an outstanding character. She seemed to be well in understanding and communication, and when things weren't looking okay, she helped mend it back together. I wish Rachel would've voiced her distress a lot more. She kept everything inside, which helped lead to her unsuccessful marriage. If we heard more from the wives' perspectives, it would be interesting to hear their thoughts on this whole 15 year man mission.

I liked Pamela the best because she seemed to understand the men's need for an annual trip and also was the least offended when the men misbehaved.
I also liked Pamela because she was always so supportive of Daniel.

I liked Rachel's selflessness and dedication. Even when she wants more of the company of her partner Daniel, she happily obliges to his need for taking a break from home life.

I liked Pamela best. She often allowed the other men to go on Man Mission and explore their wishes even when other wives were not really with it.

I think Rachel just because she never hid her feelings or what she thought from her husband. Her honesty is striking

My favorite woman is Pamela. She is never upset about taking care of the kids alone for a whole week. She appreciated man's missions and understood Daniel the most. If I were in her shoes I wouldn't be this considerate.
