So, V was supposed to move out before me.
Conversation – 1 or 2 nights ago.
A – They’re closing the gas, electricity and telephone.
V – Well, I don’t want the telephone.
A – But, that means no email or internet.
V – Oh. Then I need it.
I’m not sure exactly how he’s going to manage without me.
(But, to be honest, I don’t know how I will manage without him either – for other things, obviously)
Methinks his universe is not yours — or mine.
Hi Andy-
Oh my, well…………..V seems to be a bit in denial. And it will be hard for both of you to ‘manage’ for a while – so much is just understood to “be” in a relationship of such longevity – the missing is more in the little day to day things – as simple as where he always left his tooth brsuh or half empty coffee cup, and timing is a profound awareness – there is ‘noise’ in a relationship like shower time, eating times, coming home and leaving times, response times, quiet times, oh I could go on, but I know you know.
Change is hard, be kind to yourself and give yourself time.
Love Gail
peace…..
@Cecilieaux – True.
@Gail – I know. Now, of course, I am busy with a) trying to get my internet up and running and b) unpacking and finding the right place for everything. This will keep me busy until next week anyway.
Oh yes and I am very, very tired.
