She can’t find time for housework or hobbies between her kids and her boyfriend who stays over five nights a week.
That time together is wonderful. I still have time with my kids before he comes over. He also helps me out with things on occasion.
I don’t want to give up my time with him; it’s valuable and beautiful. But I would like to live together. It would allow us to share responsibilities and allow me to have time with him and still have a clean house and hobbies. Right now, my only hobby is him, and I need a bit more than that. The two nights a week he isn’t here, I pack in some quick cleaning and relaxation.He isn’t interested in living together. He likes his house and his life and just wants things to continue the way they are.
Actually, I wouldn’t, because when I take advantage of someone’s hospitality like that, I feel bad and either visit less often or contribute more. Especially when that someone is a single parent with a full-time job. So why is he so comfortable accepting so much of your hospitality while giving back “on occasion” at such a cost to you?
