I used to constantly have a man living with me… I went from my parents loft to sharing an household with a guy friend, and then I moved in with a boyfriend! Now I am single and in my own household.
I entirely like being alone, I have found.
I get to make whatever I want to eat, clean as late at night as I want, and watch whatever on the tv. It is a much better life. There are particular things that I miss having a man around. There is nobody that I can go to when I don’t feel safe. I liked having my boyfriend greet a terrifying looking man at the door, but car trouble, HVAC repairs, moving the garbage, and lifting heavy things. That is why my buddy and I keep gentlemen around… Well I started having some plumbing concerns. The drainage in my sink and shower just weren’t good. I looked online and I found I could do liquid drain cleaner. The results from that we are back and forth… Some people swear by it and others say it wrecks your pipes. So I bought a plumber’s snake and attempted to remove the blockage. I got hair, dirt, grime, and all sorts of icky things, but the drainage wasn’t much better. I then called a local plumber to legitimately free up the blockage; Drain cleaning was money well spent. The shower and sink drain like a dream now. It was inupscale and took the guy 30 minutes. I realized I didn’t need a man when I could hire one out.
