My DH has been away with work for two nights. I was dreading it, particularly nervous at being on my own at overnight as it hardly ever happens. I was tearful when he left. Then I pulled myself together and planned how I’d spend both days. I ended up loving it! I watched some reality-style programmes on TV that I used to love but had somehow stopped watching years ago because he didn’t like them/didn’t approve. Don’t get me wrong, he’s never said that I should stop watching them, it’s more me deciding I shouldn’t be watching stuff on the TV he doesn’t like. He watches lots of sport which I’m not interested in but I don’t mind and do other things. When he was on his way home I started feeling anxious again and even felt a bit resentful I had to go back to our usual routine. It’s been a bit of a shock because I feel like I’ve found something out about myself when previously, I’d genuinely believed I did what I liked and was relaxed when DH was home. It’s just that I found I was so much more relaxed while he was away and I don’t want to go back to feeling het up and forsaking things I want to do. But I’m dithering over the best way to do this without getting myself tied up in knots. I wonder if I should just imagine what I’d be doing if I was on my own in the house and then go ahead and do it? Advice and suggestions most welcome.
