Loved this article from Glamour Magazine – the author talks about 7 things she learned (and should be considered) when moving in with your boyfriend, fiance or hubby. lol the one about farting in front of each other is hilar. Catch it after the click.
Highlights from Glamour:
1. It’s harder to have regular sex.
That’s the big one I think most people worry about, and unfortunately it’s a real thing (unless one of you has a hyperactive libido, in which case I’m jealous). It seems counterintuitive since you two sleep in the same bed every night but that’s also the problem—you’re together every night. That built-in passion and excitement of seeing one another more sporadically is gone. You’re tired and lazy, and just hanging out watching Netflix together is pretty sweet too. So don’t take it personally or get depressed if the sex dwindles; just address it head-on. Most people respond to the statement, “Hey, honey, I want to have more sex,” with a hearty, “OK!”2. You will have to clean things you never thought you would have to clean.
It’s apparently hard to pee into a target if you’re half asleep, even for grown-ass men. I never thought I’d clean up anybody’s pee dribbles, but I do it regularly for the man I love. And for the sake of a clean bathroom. Didn’t see that one coming.3. Shaving regularly is a chore you will be annoyed you have to do more frequently because he’s around all the time, but then eventually you’ll let that slip too.
Until the one night you’re lying in bed and you realize he’s doing everything he can to avoid brushing up against your hairy legs, at which point you swear to yourself that you will shave regularly for the rest of your god-damn life.7. Good luck trying to never fart in front of each other!
For points 4, 5 and 6 – read the whole article over at Glamour.
