[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We’re exactly this type of couple, OP. Two former athletes and high achievers who met at Harvard Business School. Attractive and have done very well professionally. (Well enough that I don’t even think about our income anymore, just our net worth. We’re mid 30s and worth several million.)

What I can tell you is that we’re all just born this way/different. DH and I are high energy and super disciplined. It’s just naturally who we are. We have plenty of Type B (or less Type A friends) and[b] I am often annoyed and fascinated by them. What do you mean it’s the Tuesday before thanksgiving and you haven’t planned out your oven schedule yet?! Get. It. Together![/b] Oh wow, you took that disappointment so well - wish I were as cool as a cucumber like you.

So know that these people are not superior to you. And they’re not inferior to you either. Just simply different. [/quote]

THIS, 100%!  I was chatting with a friend the Saturday before Thanksgiving and when I asked what her plans were she told me they were "last minute planners" so she wasn't sure if they were hosting at their house or going to a relative's or maybe a friend's.... and my brain exploded. We have relatives in town staying with us all arriving and leaving on different days, and DH and I have a list in our bedroom of each date, who's arriving, which room they're staying in, and what we need to do when they leave to get the room clean after they go, and what date they leave, what time we're driving to the airport on which days, which activities and meals we have reservations for, etc. It took us five minutes to slap this together.

Oh, and btw, DH and I only wear solid colors so it often looks like we're coordinated but we haven't discussed anything but how formally we're dressing for an event. I'll wear junky t shirts (like old concert ones) to sleep and DH wears them to work out. [/quote]
