@RideaRainbow

Having such a back-up person must be very reassuring. I hear you though about the prononciation, it can be frustrating.

It sure is but over the years I have turned into humor and take it in my stride... I pause and give him the look when he doesn't correct me.. Uhuhhh no correction... 🤷‍♀️ Or say, " you understand what I mean"?!!! 😃 So actually it's upto to us how we react...!!!

@RideaRainbow

I like that you use humor to take the seriousness out of the situation but still make him understand what you mean laugh

She plays Dominoes with me

She is caring and considerate

Arrrrgg
She says she is my fiance, but she will not marry me
She moved out of our house and bought a smaller house
When I go over to her house to spend the night, we sleep in different rooms. Invariably, she can't sleep and she comes in crying.

Good and beautiful
She is the best looking woman I have ever dated
She lives 8 minutes from the house I live in now
She cuddles me before she goes to sleep

@Offmytrack

Getting a cuddle before sleep time sounds soooo nice smiley.
I hope you can find acceptance that for now she prefers to stay your fiance.

@scarletPear1945

I could imagine that his consistancy makes you feel safe. Sorry that he does not like to socialize, some people just like to stay with themselves or just a few close people. Do you have friends you can socialize with occasionally?

@amiablePeace
It is rare that I get to socialize with others since we moved to the country. Nobody visits and it is a pretty good distance to go and visit. I get tired of having to go to them and they do not come to visit me. I have my birth family but because I got adopted out I have no connection to them. My husband keeps his family away from me except when there is a family gathering and they are all very private and only associate with each other. Which I find very strange but I have adapted to that too. Hard but it is what it is. My child and grandson are all we have and he lives out of state now and my daughter is here in the house with me. We are best of friends when she is not working.smiley
