I am so anxious to get the stuff done. I want to be up early and ready to go and get it done so I have time to relax later or spend time with people.

Okay so the reason why I ask, is as I put on one of the comments, I get so anxious that I have to get out and run errands asap. My bf takes forever which just stirs up my anxiety more. Do any of you have spouses or partners that do this as well or are the opposite of you and if so how do you handle them with your route with going out or running errands. Like I said I swear my bf would just rather lay around naked all day long and could care less about any of it.

So please the more opinions the more ideas will help me.

Thank you guys.

Can you run your errands by yourself on your own terms? Who cares what bf is doing? If you want to go, just go and get it all done without him, stress free. I go early morning before long lines and don’t worry about how I look at that time in the morning. Sunglasses and ball caps are my early morning friends. I’m out the door in 10-15 minutes and home within an hour or two depending.

Maybe I’m not understanding your question.

I could if I drove. There are some errands I do by myself. But not food shopping our completely out of town……..so no sadly I can’t go without him.

That’s got to be tough living in a rural environment without driving. I empathize with your situation.

I suppose I would learn to stock up to eliminate having to commute long distances into town.

Hopefully you can communicate your concerns to your bf. Tell him you’ve got other things to do and can’t sit around and stress out while he takes forever to get motivated. Maybe you can come to some kind of compromise with him. It doesn’t sound like an ideal environment, sorry for all the anxiety you’re going through because of this. xx

At least 30 mins to get dressed and at least 30 mins procrastinating whether or not I really need to go out.
