DP is retiring very soon. He will be at home all the time and I'm dreading it. I am introverted and need some quiet solitude each day to recharge my batteries, and will not get this with him being at home every day when I get back from work.
Summertime will be OK, I can go outside and hide away from people for a bit each day. But winter...can any of you lovely people suggest to me coping strategies to help me to deal with this?
I have read this back and I sound horrible (I'll admit now I am insanely jealous that he gets to stop working). I am genuinely pleased for him as I know he has struggled with work lately, and now I am making it all about me. But if anyone feels like helping me out I'll be properly grateful.
Thanks :)
