Hi Trixi,

That statement from your H is very telling and gives you a strong indication how things need to proceed for him to remain comfortable. I guess you probably have some leeway, but patience is in order. For the moment, make the best of both worlds, living on your own has some advantages to it. Remember, things could change and he may suddenly feel like speeding things up.

Looking at your sitch, it is almost as though you are recreating the first phase of a relationship, which is a really good time. Enjoy it! Also, you still have an R with your H. Many here would be over the moon to have that.

Regarding my stuff, my thyroid is/was overactive, I think yours was the other way. So taking too high a dose for me is the same as being under medicated for you, which would make sense. On the work front I have provisional permission to live and work in New Zealand, but that opportunity is time bound. The problem with the house is that after buying my W out, the mortgage will be quite a bit higher than the rental income which would leave a shortfall.
