Have kids. Neither of you will have time to do anything any more.*

Personally, I'm not as much of a believer in the whole "If you really love
me, you'll ignore that I'm screwed up in your eyes" thing. That works ok
for stuff like leaving your underwear on the floor or the toilet seat up,
but not so much for stuff that really matters.
Sounds to me like she'll either need to be ok working on her own projects
by herself like you are, or she'll need to want to help out with yours
(and you'll need to want that too). Otherwise you're probably in for a
hassle. Maybe its a hassle worth going through with a good ending, but
it'll be a hassle.

* Btw, even though I pretty much don't seem to have time to get anything
done any more, I still am _extremely_ glad we had a kid! :-) The only
thing I'd change would be to be rich, so that when I can't work on
something in the garage, I can pay someone else to do it. :-)
