This is a great thread
although in a long term relationship, some of these things make me think that being single sounds good.
My partner is a picky eater which means instead of doing one meal for everyone I have to make 2, which is very frustrating, but I love him so I do it anyway.
I don’t get the whole of the bed, infact I get about a 1/4 of the bed as he typically likes to star fish. We’re getting a bigger bed in the hope that I can some actual space lol
But, I do get to have him to cuddle, and to keep me warm, as with my fibro I can get extremely cold due to not being able to regulate my body temperature.
It is frustrating to clear the toilet out after ANYONE else, that includes the kids!!!
However he’s now got the kick up the arse he needed and does help do dishes and some chores WITHOUT ME ASKING!!!
It’s nice to have someone to take care of me when I’m sick.
But I do absolutely detest feeling like he’s talking to someone else, or seeing someone else. It’s a horrible feeling. Sometimes I feel like I’d be better off being single....
