Ok I know it’s not going to last : after all he doesn’t have a good history on that score but still , I am quite enjoying some of the perks of my new role as his other half , so I am not going to LTB (yet) and just want some survival tips for now.
His new job came with a tied house, well more of a small flat really but we do get to use the back garden. Whilst it’s small I have found a little niche for my laptop all for me. He is so huge and pretty thoughtless , I need some space where it will be safe.
What’s wrong with him? well where do I start?
Everything is always about him and him first. He doesn’t really care about anything else. I am tolerated probably because I look good on his arm and sometimes he needs a partner if only to pair up with someone else at posh dinners.
He has a temper of course but if I just say “yes if you say so” and stoke his messy hair it seems to calm him most of the time
Trouble is , he’s not that bright and sometimes discussions and arguments just go round in circles. It’s like dealing with a toddler. Take last night. We had ice cream after dinner. It melted before he had finished it. “I don’t want this melting ice cream!” he screams, “ I want non melting ice cream!”
Is there such a thing? I asked.
“Stop being so negative! “ was his reply , slamming his hand down on the sofa. The sofa is now covered with melted cream , still it matched the old wine stains , I suppose.
So lovely people of MN I would love some advice from you lot on how to survive, how to endure him whilst enjoying my new perks.
