presumably you have a garage now.. why would you end up without one ?
That's where the term "forward" applies, what if I end up living with my lady (not to say I actually will), but she has no garage.presumably you have a garage now.. why would you end up without one ?
Thank you!
Oh I see.... Has she got enough land you can build a workshop ?
Hi Jules, let's just say that I end up living with my lady, I could certainly rent a local storage unit, but does one think that would work out ok in terms of a relationship??, I mean if I go there all the time and mess around with my long time RC hobby??
Ah.
Not that I am aware of, that's why I suggested this being "forward", I just rent the place, but you just never know, I just thought I would throw this out there.
It won't work out if she has a problem with it. Something you should discuss before making a move.
Gotcha, but would that place a strain on a relationship ya think?, I suppose I could make some sort of arrangement with my partner in advance that I would be doing this...I dunno....
Agreed!...she is aware of the fact that I don't want to give up my hobby and I WON'T give up my dog, which is another issue in itself
Def talk to her about it, and better nower than later.
I was single most of my adult life, and learned something interesting....usually, whenever the she moved in with me, she adjusted to my lifestyle. But whenever I moved in with the she, she asserted more power and control over my activities and daily schedule.
I can see that M, I would actually expect that to be perfectly honest, but as you said, we would discuss it first if it came to that. I have to be honest here and say that I've been scared to death about this, but now I'm not so scared
If she decides to move to another house, then possibly, but if she moves to a townhome or apartment, highly unlikely.
I know that feeling. Not to scare you even more, but it's pretty devastating when it doesn't work out....or, it was for me, anyway, cuz I'd given up more than I should have. That was my bad; I had to live with it and I got over it, but it was a miserable situation for a while.I can see that M, I would actually expect that to be perfectly honest, but as you said, we would discuss it first if it came to that.

I know M, I appreciate your honesty, I would be totally devastated if it didn't work out, we always say "forever", but one never really knows what will happen 5 minutes from now, but at the very least, we can always hope. I came from a VERY painful divorce that nearly cost me my life, my lady came from a painful one as well, one of over 40 years. She does get scared when certain "triggers" happen, those triggers not necessarily my fault as she says, but at least I have an idea of where she stands in all this, I can honestly say that I've learned a few things over the years and will avoid pulling any triggers at all cost.
It will depend on your circumstances. If you can find a place with garage. Great. If not maybe you could afford a small metal garage. Maybe find a garage you could rent space. How bout one of those storage units?
re: the first question... Are you planning on moving soon? As anyone would do, you move to a place that has the space you want.
Hi Paco, That's what I was thinking too after MurrMurr's suggestion, a small local storage unit with 24-hour access behind lock and key, but like he suggested, we discuss the option first should it actually come to that.
Here's another issue M, what about my dog?, I have a 2 year old Frenchie that we recently introduced to her dog, didn't go well at first, but as time went on they were able to get past the initial "handshake" and weren't growling at each other, actually all my dog wanted to do is play, her dog did the growling typical of a chihuahua I have heard.
