WC, I never would have thought I was like this when I was young but in retrospect I think that's why I found motherhood such a tough gig. Jeanie, glad you can understand, because my lo-o-ong list of rules seems outrageous - and to be honest, they are broken quite a lot - but really, why do we compromise what we want to do with our time to provide what someone else wants to do with theirs? I'm sure it can all work out for everyone if we choose to do exactly what we want for ourselves. Katie, good idea. You'd think it would be the C3 persona who would be good for chocolate and alcohol, but there is a perverse generosity about C4. I will need to organise a neutral drop-off point. . .

I'd add a rule though - he's allowed within 500 metres if he's bringing chocolate and alcohol. But then he must leave once he's given them to you. Nice. I totally know how you feel, and good on you.

I understand liking one's own company and thoughts and projects and not wanting anyone barging in on them - but then, like you say, the sun goes down and it's time for some company. I'm not a libra either. ;) WC Actually, this makes total sense to me.
