Anyone here have live-in girlfriends?

Me and my boyfriend have also just moved in together...

I moved into HIS place and he makes sure that i know that it was HIS place before.

He also has the infamous black leather couches which i have to admit are NOT my favorite part of the place. But we tried to make compromises...

for instance
he can keep his couches..as long as i can buy some decorative and colorful pillows to throw on them to make them look better, also i had to spend a good day CLEANING them... black leather couches dont LOOK dirty...but they are if you dont take care of them. Im sure the couches had seen more play, partys and all out maddness that Id like to know about...but at least now they are CLEAN..and have some nice pillows that compliment them.

Also, his office remains his office, and since he is a buisness guy and does alot of things in there, i dont complain. We put my desk and things on one side for my teacher stuff and he has his things on one side. It works, I dont try and change his setup though...

The toliet paper complaint i get ALL the time..but i cant help it.. girls use it every the time..not just once or twice a day like boys.
But if I buy it I dont hear the complaint, so I buy the huge size and it lasts longer.

When I moved in with my bf the amount of "products" i had amazed him, I also have baskets under my sink..but luckily we have seperate bathrooms so this helps ALOT with the complaining. Before his old roomate moved out we were sharing one..and we faced many of the same problems.. my hair things, my lotions etc. Now that we have seperate bathrooms we are all set...everyone is happy.


I guess the most important part of all of this is that its a learning process... its like a trial run to see if everything works out if things get more serious. I like to think of it as an adventure..

but most importantly remember ...compromise.. and if your GF doesnt understand that sit her down and explain the meaning of compromise.. maybe then she will see it slightly different.

GOOD LUCK!!!
