Domestication in_search_of: Alright, I was talking to a friend of mine about this the other day, and we are both dating people right now, and have done some domestic type things with them, like I was laying in bed with the current boy one night just before we fell asleep, and he says to me, if we are going to make that roast on Thursday, then we should pull it out of the freezer tomorrow. Well, I didn't mind it, and I enjoy being domestic, but its weird, even now, to have someone say something domestic like that to me that is not the person that I had married.
My friend, who is also divorced (although more recently than I) said that as much as she knew she had done the right thing and as much as she 'loves' the new guy, its really weird to be domesticated with him, because he is not the guy that she married, and that she pictured the rest of her life with...
Any thoughts?
Re:Domestication lookin4alite: Not sure why, but in the last few relationships the Ex has had she was more domestic with them than she ever was in the 12 years we were married. I think she is trying to prove herself. however similar to the thread about what women want, I believe the moment she gets remarried the domestication will stop. Right now she does it to prove herself worthy, but I think I know her to well and it won't last.

Re:Domestication in_search_of: You might be right.
For me, I have been more domestic, than I was with my ex (not totally, but at least in the original stages with my ex) but I am also older and a little more willing to prioritize life...
Re:Domestication heartbroken4: I havent dated yet but that would definately be weird when you are so used to being on the level with someone else for so long and than to being alone.
Re:Domestication Phyxius: Gotta agree with heartbroken on that one. I haven't dated either (it's only been 3 years... :o), but I think it would / will give me the willies to be on that level with someone else. :-\
