Money
Having lived a life as a solitaire
for so long, it was quite a thing to learn how to
share.
The incident is an example of where I had a problem
of allowing someone on what I considered as 'private space'.
More in general, money, and
how to deal with money was a problem.
When I met her, I had quite some money on
my savings account.
Going to Paris and New York, buying tickets for our holidays,
bying the furniture, things for the house, a new shower,
the preparations for the wedding,
and in general our way of living,
made my reserves disappear quickly.
Since also her allowance from Paris stopped
when she applied for her residence permit,
our financial situation became a bit tight.
I am used to having little money.
In such a case, I just start living more economical.
My worries about money, however, gave her
a feeling of guilt whenever she bought something or,
for example, even when she finished the last piece
of cheese.
It wasn't my intention to restrict her, but just to be
careful.
