This idea hit me a while back and tonight, we seriously talked about it.

How crazy would it be to be married, but not live with your husband/wife-by choice?

Us living separately really works. He takes care of his dad and I don't really like not having freedom to walk around naked and do what I want. He likes being able to come to my place and have me cook for him and really be alone. We are very happy when he's here for a few days and then he goes home to take care of his animals.

We talked about living separately for at least the first year...but getting a home together when we have children...but maybe not even then.

I know it's unconventional, but I really like the idea. What do all 5 of you think lol?

Hahahahahahaha points for that lol...and whatever works, works, I say.

Just for reference, I knew a guy that ran a hunting club on a MS river Island and this is pretty much how he and his wife lived their whole life. He'd spend 2-4,5,6 days on the property then spend a few days at home.
Don't see that much difference between what they did and what you and yours are thinking about...and that was he and his wife's life, WITH kids.

Girl these days nothing is conventional. If the two of you agree to it and it works for yall, then go for it. It's your marriage, no one else's.

Interesting! Thanks you two

@semisweet: Do i count in those 5 . Lol

I will put in my two cents anyway .. like walks and brite said whatever works for you is fine .. but having some experience of being in a long distance relationship i can say that things change all the time . What if a day comes and you are no longer interested in moving around naked in the house and need him by your side and he is simply unavailable for whatever reason or when he needs you and you can't be with him . How you cope with such a thing then ? In my book being together means being physically together when you need it and for how long you need it .

@Singhpk: Yes you count haha. I really just said that as an acknowledgement of how many people are active on the forums :D

Understandable...but it wouldn't really be long distance. He currently lives about 18 minutes away. I live closer to his work than he does, so if I really needed him he wouldn't be far. We even talked about later, doing a duplex/neighbor set up, Where he and his dad will literally be next door. Of course, when children come into play, I will have to change my lifestyle of doing what I want. However, we've lived together before and it's just not as enjoyable as having our own space.

@semisweet: That's fair enough .. There is no set formula for a successful marriage . Whatever you both are comfortable doing is fine .
PS : you have my best wishes if that helps . lol

@Singhpk: thanks :^)
