This is weird but, do you ever forget that DH and you aren't the same person?

[FastasleepInABunnySuit]

Am I just a total freak? I think I spend too much time with DH and we know everything about each other....

I find myself saying 'I don't like potatoes' and things like that, when I do! DH doesn't...

After three years of marriage we seem to be so alike it's freaky...

I suddenly thought the other day that I keep forgetting that we're different people and not just one person in two different places...

DH feels the same...

Are we really freaky or is that what a soulmate is?

FA - you are a weird freak

I could never forget how much my dh loves seafood - I hate it, despite his best efforts.

And we've been married for 12 ys

I think he's like those erm... borg thingies of star trek (dad used to make me watch that..) he's assimilated me!!

Then again he seems to have discovered a liking for lilac.... which happens to me my fave colour lol

I have a funny story about this.

Couple of years ago we were at a wedding, and seated next to a couple we didn't know. The guy shook hands with me and said hi, I'm John whatever. I said, 'Hi, I'm Michael S!" (DH's name!). They both looked really perturbed, probably thought I'd had a sex change, then probably came to the conclusion that I must be a really sad woman who had totally lost her identity. Was so embarrassing

'I'm Brian and so's my wife.' (From The Life of Brian, in case you think I've gone mad!)

PMSL
you lot are weird, I know dh hates croissants and I love them, he shaves his face and I shave my legs, etc etc
It will pass.....

Yup - mine is more that I insist that DH does like things/has seen films etc, and he points out that it is just me . My main one is bloody chocolate oranges - I keep buying them for him, convinced that he loves them, when no, that would be me, and he hates them (maybe thats just a subconsious thing).

Do you find that you know things that are him knowledge, and you have no idea how you know them?? Playing a music quiz the other night, on seperate teams, but we were giving matching answers, and he had no idea how he knew things about the Beatles (who he hates, but I like), or how I knew about Metallica, who I've always thought were ok, but never actually known anything about!

Tinygang - thanks for saying what that was from - I would have been able to hear the voice, but not place it!!

Well at least it isn't just me!!

i think its nice FA, its good that you are happy in your marriage and like being with each other

I worry that I live inside DH's head or something. I will be thinking something, reminding myself to ask DH, and before I get chance he'll ask me exactly the same thing. I end up looking confused saying "but I was going to ask you that!"
I dont mind, but I wish I'd get in there first with what I was going to say!!

Oh yeah we mind read and say/think exactly the same things at the same time...I can only imagine what we'll be like in 18 years time - we won't have to talk, we can have silent arguments in front of the kids and then storm out of the room inexplicably

Ha! We have it the opposite way around.. we used to have things in common.. and now we don't! I still quite like him though...

Weirdies!

But quite sweet. 11 years down the line and I sometimes forget DH's name.

But I did feel this about DS when he was tiny, quite a lot.

Oh yes DS1 and I practically are the same person! We don't get on all the time.. but this is obviously down to are similarities! He is 13.. and his thoughts are obviously very similar to mine at his age. And considering he is a 'bloke' he is very very good at knowing what I will like.. and things that are 'very mum'...

I have missed him. He has been in Austria for a week.. back tomorrow thank goodness...

Oh yes! And yep, I do think that's what makes a soulmate.

We'll start talking about something really obscure and it's rare we don't immediately understand what the other means. So if he says 'do you think it'll work?' I know what he means exactly where everyone else is going what? the new childmnding routine / revision schedule / shift system at work but I know it's my new watch and metal allergy.

Sounds dumb I know but I think we did kind of meld together. I like it like that, that's how I always wanted it to be

It's good innit :)

I'm jealous

It's the best

usually

When I met Dh I was the glamourous office girl, all short skirts, lippy and heels: engaged to a rather well off posh chap and the finance director was after me. Dh was a rather scruffy, beyond skinny oik with a bad attitude (actually covering shyness) who was still at home with his Mum and still a virgin at 27. I knew almost immediately though, and we were together very qyuickly after and despite some BAD rough patches are pretty much solid now. (fingers crossed)

Hope it stays that way for you peachy :)

In answer to the original question...absolutely not. Dh and I are total opposites. We do have a lot of interests in common thoughm which is what held us together...

To orignial question: yes. People have often said we are like the male and female version of the same person. We truly are soulmates (although with enough differences to make it interesting).
