Dear Ms. Q. I feel silly writing you, but you’re sensible and your blog is a hoot. I’m a lonely, blue-collar widower who’s done alright by my kids and friends. I’ve got all the creature comforts and just want a good woman to share with, but this one maybe too much. She wants to move in so we can save money and travel. She’s thinking world cruises, I’m thinking a camper to national parks. Half the time, I tune her out and retreat to the garage because she’s a complainer and busy-body. Should I settle and let her move in?
Dear Blue, She’ll move in, redo everything, run your life until you’re crazy or in the garage full time. So, no, don’t settle. You’re not happy now and it won’t get better if she moves in. Tell her you want things to stay as is, and if she leaves, it was meant to be. Keep dating, -friends, companions, even lovers, are out there looking for the same things you are. -SQ
