    For those of you married or co-habiting in a relationship how do you think you would cope if your partner left you or (heaven forbid) something happened? I don't mean how would you cope with the loneliness/heartbreak but do you think you'd be able to do all the jobs needed to run the house on your own? (ironing anyone?).

    Same goes for those still living with their parents, HT and the other younger end posters. If you suddenly found yourself living on your own tomorrow do you think you could do everything?


    This question comes purely because I've just watched the video to 'i want to break free' and I had a VERY scary thought of biglil doing the hoovering. Which we all know wouldn't happen because if Crystal left it would become laura's job and if she went with her mum it would be down to harvest beige to do the housework.

    You just wanted to see Freddie Mercury in his skirt, didn't you?

    When my ex buggered off I found my electricity and food bills were drastically reduced and I could invite her fit uni mate round any time I liked. I'd say it was a success and I'm coping just fine with the housework too :D

    Everybody likes Freddie in a skirt.

    Do you ever do the housework in your dress? I bet you do don't you with I want to break free blaring out.

    I reckon i could look after myself if i was left alone.

    Place would be a lot less tidy though.

    Would be more empties knocking about the place

    I've recently moved out of home with my girlfriend and the fact I've got somewhere that I can call my own home almost gives doing jobs a sense of enjoyment? I'm sure that will soon wear off mind! I also don't mean to blow my own trumpet but I'm a ****ing good cook ;)

    That's what usually happens when you start living on your own..........you try to blow your own trumpet

    Lived in shared housing in uni, but lived alone in Korea.

    Gets lonely at times but it's simpler. Not relying on others to be tidy, come and go as you wish, buy/do as you please and only have to clean what you dirty.

    My missus just moved in with me recently. We made a deal whereby she cleans and I cook. Perfect!

    I lived on my own for four years after my partner died. Some of the practical things were hard as I didn't know how to change a light bulb or plug! Luckily I have a close family who helped me a great deal and a brother to show me how to change a light bulb!!

    After so long I loved living on my own and found it very hard co-habiting again.
