My husband is my buddy. After OW, and after a few dives, I've realized we don't have want to go down the same diving path. He wants to be a vacation diver once or twice a year. For the rest of the year he doesn't want to talk about scuba. He has no passion for it whatsoever. He's not into courses and just wants to dive for fun.
I, on the other hand, want to learn, learn, learn. I wanna get my AOW, nitrox, rescue and maybe even fundamentals and cavern.
Of course, it's better to have a close buddy to do all these things with me. He'll very reluctantly agree with some of the courses, but unlikely for others. It's like pulling teeth to have him agree. I'm sad and frustrated as hell. What should I do?
What's ironic is that he's a natural diver in the water; things just come much more naturally to him, like trim and buoyancy. I, on the other hand, struggle with these things but have the correct attitude.
