Shame I didn’t put more thought into this.

@WillaKissing thank you..

@Xanadu17 You are quite welcome, and I hold to the same thinking that humor is the best medicine.

@WillaKissing It is, yes, but they somehow disagree with that reaction where I live now, always used to where I lived before, different personalities of the neighbourhoods I suppose.

@Xanadu17 Yes.

@WillaKissing Another reason why my relationships failed was career ambitions (of my other half) caused me to have to be more independent of him, whereas I much preferred our previous marital setup of always going everywhere together, e.g, food shop, taking the car to the garage, absolutely everything together…

I always felt very uneasy about calling my second cohabiting relationship my partner, that wasn’t me either, I preferred “husband”, but we weren’t compatible, so it was a good thing that we never married.
