Ben is wonderful, but you won't find him on Angie's List. He's better at making pasta than stopping a faucet leak. And, that's fine. In fact, it's more than fine. I can't tell you the number of women I know stay with their men because they are handy around the house. Not for love or sex or even financial comfort - for chores!
Ann, you have the right attitude. You built a life and you don't need a man messing with its foundation.
