I might feel bummed about calling a dive or having a dive called but I will always go with it.you know, this thread had me have a good conversation with my wife and daughter.
I asked if I ever made them uncomfortable turning a dive.
They said no.....but they said I emote disappointment sometimes. That is something I need to watch.
Two examples, salt pier, watching an octopus in 30 feet of water and wife turns for ears. She said I turned immediately but she got a vibe I was bummed.
Second, diving in Aruba with daughter (several years ago), really wavy on the surface, she was delaying gong down, The dive master got impatient and got on her and grabbed her bcd control then she freaked when the dive master hit her BCD dump valve to get her under. We turned immediately, but she said I appeared really ticked off. (then she said you were probably mad at him)
Folks that get dives turned on them, watch your body language, make sure folks know it is okay, any time, for any reason.
Far easier to have a conversation about it or problem solve on the surface than have issues in the water.
As a note, if a dive is called, I will always try to instigate a conversation as to why (irrespective of the rule of being able to call it for any reason at any time). Reason is, I want to be able to understand and possibly mitigate any issues going forward. It will never, ever end up heated however. If they turn round as say it is something as simple as "I just didn't feel it today" - that is fine with me as a reason. I only ask to try to improve both our experiences.
