I've seen honest faces before. They usually come attached to liars.

Spike's Bitches 40: Buckle Up, Kids! Daddy's Puttin' the Hammer Down.
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

I’m responsible for my own happiness? I can’t even be responsible for my own breakfast! (Bojack Horseman)
So, let me ask -- married folk/people living in sin: does it feel roommate-y sometimes? Or is there a roommate-like aspect? Is this normal?
As multiple folks have mentioned upthread, yes, totally normal. Tom and I tend to go to sleep at the same time, but when we are hanging out in the evening we like to do our own thing. Since we got the wireless, we tend to both be on the couch, me watching tv and him on the laptop, but before that, he'd go up to the office and do that.
It's nice to have space in the house to be able to spread out and have our own spaces. Keeps us sane!

"no trust. ineed better from you and I need it immediately. see me to discuss." he gets in just now and asks "if we need to talk about anything" I ask if he means that letter. he says yes. I say "we do but it will have to be later" how passive agressive was he???

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Aimee, it sounds like this guy has the emotional maturity of a walnut. Feh.

Aimee, I vote you play simpleton and make him SPELL IT OUT. "Need better from you" isn't actually helpful. If he's in a snit because his money wrangler is second guessing his choice to buy up properties and leave the company without cash, make him say, "Aimee, I don't want you to voice any opinions." And then memorialize it. He shouldn't be the only one who gets to write something down.
