Everything has been going really well with my relationship, so well in fact that this year me and the boy have decided to take the next step and move in together. It’s coming up to our one year anniversary next weekend and already we are fully fledged room mates, lodging at my parents house whilst we save to buy our own house.
We have our heart set on a gorgeous 3-bed, new build and with the ‘Help to Buy’ scheme we are looking to be moved in by this Christmas. It’s insane.
I think it’s normal to have your reservations at first. All I could think about was what about Sudocrem on my face at night habits? Am I supposed to give up space on my organised beauty/dressing table to make room for his basic man products? Will there be poo-etiquette? You know the usual stuff…
Nothing really prepares you for living with a boy for the first time and for me this is definitely an adjustment. I didn’t realise how much you learn about a person when see them morning, noon and night. Which leads me to writing this blog post, I wanted to share my experience of what I’ve learned living in with my other half so far…

- Commando Tuesdays are no longer a thing for him because you have picked up the duty of washing both of your clothes together.

- Toilet seat fear is a thing.
- Keeping the room tidy is a challenge.
- There is no hiding from all those weird habits that he has.
- Spontaneous nights out with your mates need to be signed off beforehand – impromptu ‘whine and wine’ sesh with the girls? This needs prep and planning now due to the whole ‘consideration for others’ notion.
- Netflix and Now TV are known as the side chicks in your relationship.
- Time spent apart can prevent a murder case. Advice: Find true privacy and take a bath while he’s consumed with FIFA.
- Wanting a puppy becomes relationship goals.
- Enduring at the very least one moan or rant a day.
- His razors are way more advanced than yours.
- Morning wood is a daily occurrence – cut the “it’s for you” story boys.
- Despite all of this, I have no idea what to do with myself when he’s not around.
- Even though he can be a pain in the ass sometimes, I wouldn’t wanna live with anyone else…#soulmate
