Suer,
I had been on one cruise prior to meeting my wife, and that was back in 1990. I convinced her to go last year in spite of her concerns (seasickness, feeling confined in a small space, will there be enough to do, etc.). She can't sit still at home, but on the cruise she loved being able to sit on deck out in the sun and read a book. Plus the seas were as calm as could be and she had a great time. And that was with Carnival during spring break with tons of kids. HAL has roomier ships in general, and in mid-fall should not have many kids. So it should hopefully be even more relaxing.
DW works at a retail furniture store and can buy furniture at cost. So I finally got beat down and she's pretty much refurnishing every room in the house that we have not already done. So when I told her that I wanted to go on another cruise she wasn't going to say no. But I can't really start talking about the next cruise before this one arrives. My hope is that she'll love this one as much. Also cruising, especially out of your home port can be very inexpensive, so it makes it an easy vacation to take. So I'm hoping that when the talk of the next vacation occurs we look at our options and she says, "another cruise may not be a bad idea". We watched one of the travel channel cruise shows and she seemed very interested in doing one of the Voyager class ships.
However, for our 10 year anniversary (still 4 years away) we've decided to go back to Sandals, Negril, where we had our honeymoon.
BTW, divorce is not an option. She's already told me that if we get divorced I get the kids and the dogs. So I'm in this for the long haul.
