Has your life gone the way you expected it to? What did you imagine your life would be like now when you were a child? When you were a teenager? Shortly after education? Somewhere between leaving education and now?

If it's different to what you expected, why?

What about your life in the future? Do you think it will actually turn out that way, or do you think it will be different? Why?

I've experimented with living with a partner before and it's never worked out. However, my domestic situation (not to mention my relationship) is different now so I think it's worth trying again. There are variations on the theme too, including living in the same house but having seperate rooms etc.

And yeah, I agree about the tribalism thing. I suspect it's caused by the ease of dispersal these days; my parents, siblings and cousins mostly all live a long way away from each other (I think the closest is my younger sister and parents, at about 50 minutes' drive from each other). I've also thought about trying to set up some kind of Neighbourhood Watch / Resident's Association thing to get to know my immediate neighbours.
