And Rusty, how lucky you are to be coddled by your lady. Your relationship, being together every few weeks, seems ideal to me. Just the way I'd like it.
I agree......... being together with a bossy teacher type would be Hell after a few weeks!
Only joking.......... I am sure that many people find a 'medium distance' relationship the ideal - a 'long distance' relationship (e.g. 'across the pond') is just so much financial and time hassle, while an 'inter-European' one is neither too far away in time travel terms or too hard to plan financially with cheapo flights still going the rounds even with huge fuel price hikes -
the saying:
'Familiarity breeds contempt' has less chance of taking root if you plan your leisure time together and get on with the serious side of life 'independently' (provided neither of you are the cloying 'I can't live a day without you' types)........
Have you noticed how many couples who 'tolerate' each other for decades (when at least one is working) divorce or virtually live apart once thewy have both retired from earning their daily crust?
