Win a FitBit and Lionel Shriver’s brand new novel - together worth over £100 *NOW CLOSED*

I would always welcome my partner getting involved in something which we could share

I often have to ask him to get involved as there are usually aspects of what I am doing that I know he will make a better job of than I can.

I'm just happy to share with someone I love - I know that sounds a bit twee but we've never lived together and just sharing time together is good enough for me.

We only have ours ...

i dont mind at all

My partner only tends to try to get involved in 'my stuff' if he is bored or thinks what I am doing is more interesting than 'his stuff'. So I immediately abandon 'my stuff' and leave him to it. Then I start tampering with 'his stuff' and he immediately gets the message and leaves 'my stuff' alone.

He usually keeps his distance and gets on with his bits. Good job too.

I like that my husband is interested in something that I am doing and cares enough to offer to be involved if possible.

My husband started getting involved in how I ran the kitchen when he retired - it has always been my domain as he never ever cooks. So I said to him "OK fine, it's all yours. I won't come in the kitchen again and you can take over the cooking!" Happily (or maybe unhappily!!) it worked and the kitchen is mine again.

I Don't have anyone

Everything is 'ours ' except when i buy biscuits as they all suddenly become 'his'. I've even bought ones i know he doesn't like, just so i can guarantee to get at least one out of a pack! ( he still manages to 'force them down!). So i think if i won i'd have the book and he could have the fit bit!

I would think it was a bit odd initially...but I could get used to it

We both have different interests but if he does want to get involved, I let him.

Well in my family we talk about things,no one pokes there nose in each other affairs.

My DH doesn't get involved in my "stuff", he is far too busy in one of his many sheds faffing with one of his many Motorbikes. Thats the way i like it

That would be unusual, but you never know ?

They would get told nice to keep their hands off

Nothing as we share.most things

Like atticus I ma happily on my own.

Same here granny piper I wouldn't mind if he wanted to do something I do though don't think he would ever want to .

Aww, not fair. I can't enter. I don't have a partner.

I don't mind as long as it doesn't become his and not mine !

I'd just let them get on with it-"me,me,me" is not a game I play.

My DH took over all the everyday cooking when he retired. Until then it was my domain. He did consult with me first, but I couldn’t hand it over quickly enough. I’m eternally grateful to have three meals a day made for me and that all those days of planning and cooking are long gone! If I ever feel the need to feed someone, I can bake a cake.
