Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Saturday Love.......Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Saturday Love.....

anyway, in the words of the song:

Never on Sunday, Monday's too soon
Tuesday and Wednesday just won't do
Thursday and Friday, we can begin
But our Saturday love
Will never end, sugar

So the Saturday Love is kinda forced upon us out of necessity. But some ppl might make a definite decision to only see their other halves at the weekend even if they live in relatively close proximity. I'm interested to know what other ppl think.

i can imagine (i have to imagine as am ALL ALONESOME BOO HOO er not really (not really boo hoo i mean)) myself doing this. i can get really testy and territorial about time alone.

well, you will go telling ppl "you don't want me I'm horrible", which is patently untrue.

I wonder whether the testy /territorial thing applies when a S.O. is concerned? I think that when i moved into the flat I bought I felt that I had crossed a line which meant sod the expense I won't get a lodger, coz the days of housemates were over coz of the space issue, speshly as the landlord/lodger relationship is never the same as the housemate relationship and you find yrself getting bossy even if its not in yr nature coz of the "Mind! Don't break that it's MY STUFF" aspect. either that or become passive-aggressive.

Hrrrrmmmm, mutter mutter, argh ... oh yes it does. Especially when you move in together, and one person moves into the other person's flat. But I really don't want to bring all that up again.

I think in some ways, if I were to actually have a relationship again, that I might prefer to have a LDR or a weekend thing. But that might be an extreme reaction, trying to create artificial rules to define mytime/yourtime rather than deal with the back and forth of defining it through wear and tear.

But I'm really not cut out for living with other people. Unless we could live in a house like my parents' house where each person could have their own wing and not have to see each other if they weren't speaking.

From that I would infer that a very creative person can never be truly compatible with someone who isn't creative at all.

I'm not a 'place for everything and everything in its place' type person so if my gf were to move some stuff to another bit of the flat it wouldn't be a problem. I really see how it might be for some ppl tho.

I am envisaging a situation when my gf were to say, break a plate or mug, I think I'd say "never mind" and sweep up the bits, and only go ape if I was in a particularly grouchy mood, whereas if I had a lodger I'd be all "you clumsy eejit!" about it.
