Well hey there, other person apparently living my life. You wouldn't happen to also be ace would you? Lol
My marriage is great but these are struggles. It gets easier over time as long as you both try to work together.
Not ace :)
We've been married for 20 years. Yes, there are struggles, but we learned that each one of us can have their own separate slices of life as well. While she goes to a meetup, I cook at home. While she goes to a party, i meet up with a buddy, jamming. I'm okay in smaller groups, especially if I get to cook :)
It sounds like yall have a lovely life and I wish you the best :)
I appreciate you! :)
