b91 (6.13-1.2020): cohabitation trainwreck

cohabitation trainwreck
the future (plain to see)
although i’ve seen it all before ((“that won’t happen to me.”))
as friends and parents sing the song (“you two should share your paychecks!”)
we might as well yell “all aboard!

·       even though (virtually) everyone knows that the odds of cohabitating successfully are far, far less than the extremely meager odds of a successful marriage... they encourage you to joint the club!

·       maybe misery loves company.

·       the people that (you think) love you most -- will actually encourage you to cohabitate (and marry) at the same time!

·       does everyone just want to watch the crash??!!!???
 
all my life, i’ve been into inter-independence.  this is not interdependence.
 
inter-independence is a mutual desire to assist our partner to be completely independent of us.  yes, they can still love us and connect with us, but they are not a slave to our desires and whims.
 
they are independent.  
they earn their own money.  
they live in their own home.  
they control their own lives.
 
now…
that
…is sexy!
