For those of you who have a significant other, have you noticed a drop in the time you spend together?
When we first find someone we are attracted to, we make getting to know that person our main interest. We spend a lot of time together learning about each other. If that person is destined to become our significant other, the interest continues for some time. We WANT to do things together.
Unfortunately, most couples are not able to sustain that level of togetherness. Jobs and families intervene and our time becomes limited.
With a little effort and commitment, it
…so I’m trying to spend my usual quality time with the one I love…but my wife seems to be fed up with me watching the tv??…what should I do???…
Which one do you love, the TV or Caro? If it’s your dear and lovely wife, roll over, look at her longingly, and if she doesn’t laugh in your face, ditch the TV. (Oh, to be a mouse in the wall at your house!)*G*
…errrr…the expression is ‘a fly on the wall’ over here…mainly ‘cos if you was a mouse the cats would have you :^)…and I have found that whenever I “roll over and tell cal I love her”…she normally sezs “not now!”…and if I want to make her laugh – I only have to be nekkid…and I don’t think there is *ever* a question about who I love most – it’s sheffield united, then carolyn, then the tele :^)…ooops, were *you* supposed to be in the top 3??? :^)…
Well, darn! I didn’t even beat out the tele!
Have you tried the syrup on cal?? Um…better get rubber sheets first…..
Buffy, sounds like solid advice here. I might add (though I do not claim to be any expert on human relationships) that spontaneous time shared can be good fun and quite exciting as well, as much as I think of myself as one who prefers to plan my day to day life. Hell its the only way I get the stuff that I need to, done!
…good golly…you americans…from barbarism to decadence without a period of civilisation :^)…what do you think god invented sparkling wine and ‘inny’ tummy buttons for?….blummin’ pancake syrup….and we don’t talk about the rubber sheets – ok – just ‘cos I’m old :^P….
Doc, I’m all for spontaneity. It’s my preference. But if we aren’t finding enough of those spontaneous moments, then planning some time together is the next best thing.
