So one of our three bedrooms is MINE; I don't sleep there, but it's mine. This has enabled me to live for 14 good years through football season, basketball season, baseball season, the Olympics (both summer and winter), and myriad gory documentaries on WWII that otherwise would have driven me postal. While he doesn't really understand WHY I need to be alone so much, he understands that I DO. If your buy is the same, or similar, you will be able to work it out.

...That is a great inspiring quote. Writing it down.<br /><br />At least your home is established and you have all the things you want. Now to just negotiate little ways to let him have his own space. Shame you couldn't build an extension, ha ha. I bet the cat will love the garden. Breathe deep and try to take it easy! <br /><br />I could NEVER live alone because at night I get scared about monsters and serial killers.

It is sad that our society forces upon the stereotype everybody wants the "matching half to be whole". People usually want to be happy and content but the things that make one happy and content can be rather different things one imagines they ought to be. :)Jadehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17657394873058225387noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3318046134864811272.post-68448568978068565592014-09-20T23:21:14.264-04:002014-09-20T23:21:14.264-04:00Funny you say that...

Good luck! :)<br /><br />The "two halves" thing is absolutely vomit inducing. I'm already a whole person, thankyouverymuch! :P If I ever get married, my spouse will just have to buy the house next door. ;) J.Banehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17195276109146618481noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3318046134864811272.post-72078976602052938742014-09-20T16:44:39.080-04:002014-09-20T16:44:39.080-04:00Change is never easy and I had the similar thing h...Change is never easy and I had the similar thing happen to me when I moved in with my husband when we got engaged. Like you, I am comfortable being alone so we made concessions. I take a bath or I go in another room. It helps. We also moved to a bigger apartment last year because with the three of us, we were cramped and the arguing started. You will get used to it.
