As for the subject of this thread, personally I'm unable to work. So, if I were in a relationship living with someone, I would prefer to take care of most of the household chores so that when he's home, we can spend time together instead of on chores. However, that's not to say that I want him to do nothing around the home. Definitely would want him to take care of the cars. And yard work. I'll help with it, but I can't cut the grass unless it's a riding mower. I also like for him to cook part of the time. Just because it's a nice change and most men that I like enjoy cooking.
That's very true. Even though at times it's hard, sometimes you just need a little quiet time to sit and think about yourself, what you want, what you need, the person you want to be. Then be that person.
I suppose people get complacent because life gets in the way. However, this time around, I want it all, so I won't be getting complacent. That, as anything else, is a decision. Part of the attitude.
Maybe it's best to find someone you click with as a friend and then see if fireworks grow from the friendship. It can happen. I've seen it. And I've experienced it. After all, you want to be friends for life, as well as lovers.
Maybe we put too much emphasis on the initial fireworks and the lovers part of the equation. You can still have chemistry with someone you are friends with. Otherwise, you wouldn't be drawn to one another as friends, right?
