Weddingbee boards

I moved in with my hubby three years ago, and I'm not sick of him! I'm excited to see him every night when I get home from work.

Did you guys just move in together? I know we've gone through rough patches, and one was when we first moved in together. We were suddenly together so much, and so many changes were happening, that I think we were both extra stressed. Have you made sure to spend some time apart too? Sometimes it helps to get a little distance, especially when you're living together.

I'll bite. Sure, sometimes, I may want the house to myself in order to avoid the sounds of "Battlefield 2" blaring from the Xbox. He isn't as tidy as I am, and sometimes I feel like chucking his dirty socks off the deck in an attempt to make the living room appear to be more than a dirty clothes hamper.

However, when the weekend rolls around, I really want nothing more than to take our morning coffee together on the balcony and spend hours relaxing with him. He drives me crazy, but it's a healthy crazy.

I never tire of him -  our life together is far too interesting. I love seeing him after a long, hard day and look forward to laying down next to him at night.

I've lived with him and fis family for a year and now we've lived on our own for over a year now and I can't get enough of him! Very rarely we have our moments when we start to get testy with one another, but he always knows how to turn it around so that we can laugh it off. I don't think I could ever get tired of him... but we do need our own time now and then :"]]

Only if he's being a butthead! But not usually. If we start to irritate each other we decide to do something different either together or apart, And that usually fixes the problem. We always miss each other when we're not together.

I am definitely not sick of my FI, but there are certain single girl freedoms I miss sometimes.  I have a really hard time falling asleep if he is not with me, which is kind of pitiful really.  We have our fights, but I really can't imagine NOT living with him now.

Like I said, there are some things I miss, like being able to hang out with my friends all night talking if I felt like it.  I was a bartender up until this past January and FI just doesn't get the hours that most bar employees keep (trust me, it takes a while to unwind from being so high energy all night).  Last week FI was out fishing with his friends all night and I couldn't sleep, so I went and hung out at the bar with my friend who works there up after they closed.  I was there from 4-6am, and FI was a little miffed about it.  (Side note, I told him that I was going to hang out with this friend before I even left the house and he was only upset about the time, not the person I was with, and my friend was going through a death in the family)  Now, if it were some random person I probably would be mad too, but this is a mutual friend, one of my best friends, and FI totally trusts both of us.  He still gets jealous if its past a certain hour though, even if he is out all night too.  So I miss being able to keep whatever hours I felt like.  So I vent about that, but its just one of those compromises we've made.  Unless we are having a girls' night or guys' night out or there are extenuating circumstances, we typically don't stay out past 1am with different gender friends unless we are together.  That said, FI doesn't have many close girl friends who aren't related to him, while I have always been one of the boys and have alot more guy friends than girl friends....so its really more of my compromise than his :)

Oh and I miss being able to grocery shop and cook for just myself!  FI hates a few of my favorite dishes (although he is very good about trying new things), so I usually try to make something we will both like.  I miss my foods!

I would love to live with mine, we very rarely see each other.  We really miss each other.  But we can't live together.  You're lucky. :)  

Maybe you should work on some ground rules for your house, as in one-person speaks at a time, or a 5 minute talking stick!  And if someone breaks the rules they have to pay the kitty (or you) $20 for every rule.

FI and I have been living together for  5 and a half years and I never get sick of him. It is really important to still do things independently though. Hegoes rockclimbing twice a week with friends and I go to exercise classes with friends. Having a bit of "me" time is always a good idea to maintain a healthy living together r/ship.

We've lived together 3 years and I'm not tired of him!  Sometimes I miss him even when we are both home together!  I know how strange that sounds, but sometimes we both have so much going on with work and school we'll both be home but in different rooms working and because we have so much on our mind, it's almsot like we're not even in the same house. Sure we bicker and nag each other sometimes, but I think that's inevitable when you live together. 

I lived with my FI for awhile, then moved back in with my mom because his place didn't have a lot of space. Recently, I moved back in with my FI, and the first couple of weeks were hard, and we fought more. Mostly because of his video game habits. (ie playing World of Warcraft until 2 am) So, we're both adjusting. Him playing less and whatnot.

We definitely had some teething problems when we moved in together. SO had been living in a house on his parents' property but didn't have to do everything himself (his mum would do laundry, etc) so that took a bit of adjustment.

For the most part now, things are great. We're lucky to have a guest room so for the last couple of nights, SO has slept in there and I've had the master room to cough, snuffle and groan through my cold - getting a good night's sleep is key to getting along I feel!
