What Ruined Our Marriage Made Us Perfect Roommates - For 16 More Years

When we were married, this was an enormous problem. We never went out with other couples or had dinner parties together because he was never available after 5 or 6 p.m. I went everywhere by myself: theatre, films, museums, opera. Even our vacations did not align, so I traveled alone. It is ironic that one of the things that ruined our marriage - opposite schedules, which meant we rarely saw each other - was the exact reason we could happily cohabitate for two-plus decades.
