How early on in a relationship did you start getting up before your partner? (stupid q)

I've been seeing dp since March, and stay with him every second weekend (he has his daughters 50/50). I'm a terrible sleeper and an early riser to boot, so I'm normally up at 6ish whereas he likes to sleep in until 9/10.

I just feel weird getting up and making myself tea in his house! He's the world's most laid back man so I don't think he'd bat an eyelid. I've also been single a looong time so probably just not used to the thought of someone else being in my house either, if that makes sense.

Also an early riser. Almost from the start.(married 10 years now). But I do the same in other peoples houses too- I tell them I wake up early and can I make myself a cup of tea. I’m most productive before 8am

Always.l felt comfortable to do that. Buuuuut one of the best parts of the honeymoon period (or at least a relationships without small children around) is morning sex - that would be a reason to stay in bed, or return with hot tea that’s left to go lukewarm. I haven’t had a good morning shag for years.

Never. Honestly. I get uo when I feel like (only after I've been brought a coffee in bed ,)
