To his credit he did try an intro dive in Cozumel and liked it, unfortunately now I think he is changing his mind about getting certified.
No worries, that just means I have twice the cash to go on twice as many trips if I am the only diver in the family!!

We don't need no stinkin' C-cards (well, at least I didn't before 1969).Mine dives, he just refuses to get his C-card.

I've had a number of those uh 'bad experiences under water that your wife is afraid of'...Being underwater is what gets her. Close call as a kid and just can't get by it. I finally got her to snorkle at Turks & Cacios which she LOVED! One step at a time I guess.
namely 3 near drownings including a full recessutation.
Plus I'm claustrophobic and I was blind when I learned to dive (thanks to RK pre-lasik I now have 20/20 vision!)
So don't give up...it took me awhile to finally learn to dive i.e. I flunked each pool session 2/3 times each and my mask clearing 4 times and my open water weekend twice before I FINALLY passed. But hey...if you choose to stick with it...like I did...then anything is possible....including almost 900 dives later I'm now a DiveMaster and competent diver...so yes...anything is possible!

She won't admit it to me, but I think she is a little claustrophobic, so why push her into an environment where she would be uncomfortable?

I'm very claustraphobic....trick is to not let the water come up over you but rather put your head into it first...get comfortable and then start to descend.
In fact there are a number of techniques you can use to over come claustrophobia. Sometimes it just helps to know that others have the same worries and issues and its fairly common.

I too am very claustraphobic - you'll rarely see me do a swim through for that very reason - I swim over the top and follow the bubbles!! That seems to work for me.............well, there was that one time in Coz where I joined up with another group of bubbles.............at least they were SD.com bubbles!!!She won't admit it to me, but I think she is a little claustrophobic, so why push her into an environment where she would be uncomfortable?

Um, are you talking about diving or sex?My wife I tried it a couple times, on our honeymoon and on a cruise. As far as I can tell she just is not into it.
