[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why not just be honest? “Good morning. I’m going to take my coffee upstairs/to the porch outside for a little morning quiet and reading time.” [/quote] OP here. That’s exactly what we do. If we go to the porch, they follow and talk. If we go upstairs, it’s loud talking about “I don’t know, if I make eggs, they’ll just get cold. I don’t know when Sally’s coming down to make more coffee [there’s a full pot minus the one cup I took upstairs]” and yes, in our home, all is set up and available to help themselves to anything and they’ve been told help yourselves. I guess we will do separate lodging when possible.[/quote] You are incompatible, nothing can solve this. Get separate lodgings, minimize contact or just suck it up.[/quote]
