I live with my ex, have done for the last 6 years. There is less than nothing between us, except our child and financial reasons. It's cheaper for us to live together than each of us finding somewhere to live. It makes dating pretty much impossible for me, not so much for her, because the guy almost always has a home she can spend the night at. We are open about what we do, we get along really well, but no interest in the bedroom at all, we split way back in 2009, I moved back in in 2018 when I sold my house. It was meant to be temporary, like 3 weeks max, then covid hit and ruined my plans for heading to the US. since then she has had a few guys in her life, kinda awkward trying to explain our relationship to said boyfriend. I haven't bothered trying to find a partner, and my work entails shift work, so trying to find anyone who is willing to live in this situation is nigh on impossible, hence the reason I haven't bothered. Maybe you should talk to her about having an "open" relationship? You do what you want, she does what she wants, as long as neither of you bring it home, no problem? |
