Boyfriend s visits
leave single mom
with no alone time
Dear Carolyn:
I am a woman of 50 in a relationship
with a man of 70. We love spending time
together, and the relationship is very
fulfilling. He is retired and has quite a
bit of time. I still have kids at home and
work full time. My life is pretty busy.
For the past year and a half, he has
spent about five nights a week at my
house.
That time together
is wonderful. I still
have time with my
kids before he comes
over. He also helps
me out with things on
occasion.
Before we got
together, I would
spend those evenings
doing my housework
and my hobbies. Now, I don’t feel like I
have that time. This is stressing me out.
I don’t want to give up my time with
him. It’s valuable and beautiful. But
I would like to live together. It would
allow us to share responsibilities and
allow me to have time with him and still
have a clean house and hobbies. Right
now, my only hobby is him, and I need
a bit more than that. The two nights a
week he isn’t here, I pack in some quick
cleaning and relaxation.
He isn’t interested in living together.
He likes his house and his life and just
wants things to continue the way they
are. He gets to spend the days when I
am working cleaning and doing his hob
bies, so it works well for him.
I’m looking for an option other than
spending less time with him and I’m
just not seeing it, so I’m hoping someone
outside the situation sees something I’m
missing.

WONDERWORD ANSWER
FOR FEB. 24
Journeyman
Someone who stays with you five
nights a week for a year and a half is a
nonpaying tenant.
Yet he is acting like a guest, and you
apparently are treating him like one.
Heck, yeah, I’d keep my own house
on those terms.
Actually, I wouldn’t, because when I
take advantage of someone’s hospital
ity like that, I feel bad and either visit
less often or contribute (a whole lot)
more. Especially when that someone is
a single parent with a full-time job. (This
is how keyboard-face injuries happen.)
So why is he so comfortable accept
ing so much of your hospitality while
giving back “occasionally” (gah) at such
a cost to you?
Why are you so comfortable with his
taking so much and giving back so little
at such a high cost to you? Your accept
ing it tells him you are.
That’s what I think you’re missing —
that your arrangement stresses you out
and you’re not immediately thinking,
“Wow, this deal is great for him and
exhausting for me, and neither one of
us is looking out for me here.” That’s
an alarm system you want hard-wired
inside you, and at a volume you can’t
possibly miss.
