Oh Mrs Ding, I have days when I feel I might as well live in a separate house, My OH of 8 years thinks we are being together if he is somewhere in the house, he doesn't seem to need the same 'together' time as me, if he ever (very rarely) has a day off at home he has a list as long as his arm of jobs he wants to do, I am nowhere on it, he is in his element, and at the end of the day will say, wasn't it nice having a day at home together!!!!!! last weekend we went shopping together, he kept going off on his own, arranging a time for us to meet up. O.K. I don't want to spend boring hours looking at books on trains and stocks and shares but he honestly considered we'd had a nice day out together, don't know about Mars and Venus, I think he's from another planet further away! I do have to be careful, my late husband and I were very 'together' but they are different in loads of ways, it wouldn't be right to compare them. I do have grumpy times and feel left out sometimes as you do but on the whole I do feel fortunate, life on my own was really dreadful.
