February moving tips to send your heart aflutter
Tips for moving in with a spouse (for the 1st time)
You’re finally moving in with your spouse! What a new, thrilling, and exciting time! If there are nerves too, though, we completely understand. Both a relationship and a move are serious and intense matters, let alone both of them together. So, here are a few tips to help the happy couple.
It’s a no pressure program
First off, neither of you should feel pressure to move in together right now, whether it’s from the other spouse, friends, family, etc. Make sure moving in together is as a result of deliberate and patient conversation and not a rushed decision. Also, be sure to listen to one another. This is sound advice for anyone in any stage of a relationship, but when picking a first home together, couples should hear their partner’s desires, so that the two of them can come to a sound and mature, responsible agreement.
Communication is also crucial
Both partners should be happy with the home, comfortable with the price, and create a detailed and outlined plan on who pays for what, how much are each of them paying for which things, how the apartment should be decorated and dealt with aesthetically, and who’s going to be the one doing all of the repairs (maybe one is especially handy).
