My husband does not understand the concept of ‘seizing the day’
Although well into his seventies , he lets artificial constraints like his ‘ commitment ‘ to his bellringing get in the way of enjoying life, beautiful evenings etc so for instance if he has committed to going bellringing he won’t walk in the park and have a drink on a terrace looking over the lake.
This is only one small example , there are many more I could give but the net result is that I end up frustrated and feel my life is going and I am not really able to enjoy the things I like , some of which I feel are very simple pleasures indeed so what’s wrong with wanting to do them ?
So what do I do ? Do I leave him ? Do I grin and bear it ? Or do I do the things I want to do on my own with the risk of feeling lonely ?
I really don’t know what to do and would be grateful if anybody had any advice to give me . Thank you
