I think i'm pretty clear on who and what i am at this stage in life and i dobt think that would change. But.....as a partnership, theres things he does in our relatiobship i'd really struggle to do without him....and vice versa if it were me who popped my clogs first, so i'd be list in some aspects of my life....i'd havevto learn some stuff pretty fast!
I know this isn't what you asked, but we went through a rough patch 10 years ago, because I had lost sight of myself . Ivwas too busy beibg wife and mum and supporting the kids i worked with, there was no time at all for being me....just for me. It wasn't pleasent. I wasn't coping well at all.
But... i'm back now....and pretty happy with me and my abilities to deal with most things.
