Ex and I were never compatible
Isn’t it interesting how you can look back on situations and see things so clearly? Down the road, it becomes immediately obvious that some things were never meant to be.
It’s exactly like that old saying, hindsight is 20/20.When I look back on my past relationship, it’s clear that things were never going to work out.
My associate and I were just odd people with odd priorities. My associate and I had completely odd preferences and ideas about life. At the time, I couldn’t see that because we enjoyed doing some of the same bi-weekly jobs together. Looking back now, it’s very obvious that we had differences which were insurmountable. As silly as it sounds, one of the major things that we easily couldn’t ever get over were our severe personal preferences when it came to indoor air temperature. The concern was, while she constantly felt hot, I constantly felt cold. This meant living together was extremely uncomfortable for both of us. Everyday it felt like we got into a scrabble about the indoor air quality and our discomfort. She would wake up in the day and immediately start complaining that it was too hot for him to think. She would try to turn down the air-conditioning and I would start panicking. At the same time, I was constantly feeling like it was incredibly cold. She wouldn’t complain that she couldn’t stop perspiring, but meanwhile I was shivering incessantly. If I try to bump the temperature control up a few degrees, we were bound to get into a screaming match about energy usage and respecting each other’s indoor comfort. These days, I’m thrilled to have the temperature control to myself.
