Living together

[4getmenot]

When you first moved in with someone or your partner moved in with you, did you like it?

[weeal]

I did when my then 'husband to be' moved in with me.

More recently I moved in with someone and hated it, was out within 6 months.

[Chaterbox]

i wouldn't move in with someone i don't like.
what is 'it' ? do you mean sex? or the living together 'bit'?

[redcrx]

When i moved into my first house with my ex husband (as he is now) it was great as we'd never had our own places.

Moving into here with Mr CRX after being along for 3 years was strange but the feeling soon went away.

anything you wanna tell me little sis???

[mccfluff]

the first few weeks were ok, then wehn we stopped being all 'fluffy' he started to bug the poo out of me to be frank. i'm one of those people that has to live on their own to be fair, it prob wasn't all his fault - but WHY wash glasses last in the dirty water from the rest of the washing up surely thats aghhhhhhhhhhhhhhh 4 get its been 4 years since i lived with someone and just thinking about it has set me off!

[weeal]

yeah Ive been more or less 6 years on my own (cept the daft 6 months) and I wouldnt change it again

I mean living together chater, well redcrx I have had a txt msg this morning saying he told his flat mate lastnight he's moving out but end of this year. So guess we will be living together next year. Its made me really happy but you know me I am very independent

[4getmenot]

mcfluff I hate washing up glasses so when I have get togethers I make everyone drink from beakers

[redcrx]

youll need a bigger flat sis, I know where theres a 2 bedder for sale, perfect for when you want some time apart :)

Oh Im so pleased for you, but why is he waiting so long!? Im gonna get mum to have words with him lol

[mccfluff]

awww i'm happy for you, i like the beaker idea!

[4getmenot]

beleive me I thought it would be even longer as he's still young. I never even mentioned it and wouldnt have believed he'd be planning ahead. Maybe he knows he cant live without me if he has any more dentist appointments.

[4getmenot]

Its just I guess when you but a house together you know what space you have, but he is never gonna fit his stuff in my place

[redcrx]

dont use mine as storage!

[MONTCRIEFF49]

4 get wat ever you dicide xxxxxxx

Congrats 4get, that's great news :-)
(I'm sure that red didn't have the 2 bed in mind for babysitting when she suggested it LOL).

When I lived with my ex, at the time, it seemed like fun but I think we were both young and naive and moved in together too quickly, the novelty soon wore off and we split up after a few months.

With my hubby though, things were more gradual, everything felt natural and I moved into his family home after one year; two years later we got our first house together and we haven't had any problems. Yeah, he annoys me sometimes, but no more than when we lived apart LOL

Mrs JtH moved in gradually;

Slippers, first, (I had a spare toothbrush for her use), then....
Favourite 'going out' coat,
Push-bike,
VCR,
Stereo record/radio player,
Cat......................
It was at this point she stopped going back to her house and shortly after put it on the market........
Apart from putting things in the wrong drawers and cupboards in the Kitchen, (which she still bl00dy, does, btw) she fitted into my routine pretty well...........and we still muddle along together almost 20 years later.

I moved in with my 1st boyfriend when i was 18. I'd been living with my Dad who died so it was our oppertunity . We had been together for 3 years at the time. I loved it when we first moved in but we did eventually go our seperate ways as we drifted apart. Too much way too young i guess. Sad thing is, my son is on about moving in with his girlfriend when he turns 18.

[mirela]

me and my bf moved in quite quick, but we settle down pretty quick as well. just when you live together, life is getting more routine, im quite happy with quiet peaceful life, now pay more attention about the house, planning future together. i think it is a step to push forward the relationship.

[4getmenot]

Redcrx I already have a 3bed, 2 kitchens, 2 living rooms and a wall with a big hole in it :-) I think It will be ok, not till end of year and have been together a year now. I;m just used to having time to do my own thing so even if he moved in I�ll be kicking him out a couple of nights a week, and I have just told him he better find a buyer for his x box :-)

[mirela]

lol 4get, bet u r happy with the moving idea, even you two live together, still can keep personal space, just need good communication.
i pinched my bf's xbox as dvd player, and sometimes me and him playing WII together, i really enjoyed it when i beat him.

[legend004]

loved it for first year .
but then i was young anmd starry eyed.

soon grew outta that.
i dont envy folk moving in and buying a place together.
you hear such horror stories when they split the house having to be sold if its in joint names.even if its transferred only ones that win are lawyers.


best of luck
