Sometimes life repeats. You know you've not been here before and yet it all seems so familiar. The new bonus relationship which is three months old has reached that point where I'm accused of not giving enough time to it. This is so familiar to me. At 18 I used to fix my girlfriends to seeing me on a Wednesday and a Saturday. That was it. My other days were free to play video games and watch tv. My marriage went beyond that but pined for me to have time alone.
So at 42, I have the issue raised at me. I am not built for the sociable moments of relationships. I like being alone. I like me when I'm alone.
I have nothing against my new girlfriend and I will endeavour to blend my time with her but I will expect cracks to form.
Why am I like this? I don't know. But I've seen it many times.
