Are first impressions important?
When i first met my present husband I didn't just fall in love with him, I also fell in love with his house. I could work out so much about him just from looking around his home.
The house someone lives in is an extension of their character in my opinion. His house was warm, lived in and so cosy and with so many personal touches, it made me feel welcome and i felt comfortable. Needless to say we have now been married a year and I love the warmth and character that he has brought into my house since he moved in.
I met my husband to be (wedding 12th January 2006) following a house move from the family home after a divorce seven years previous. Everyone kept on telling me it was time to move on.
I moved into an apartment for reasons of security and low maintenance and met someone who has changed my life. He also had moved following a traumatic time in his life and was settling into life as a singleton. Ironically, unknowingly, we actually had family connections which go back two generations as my mum was friends with his mum and family. I had gone to primary school with his cousin and had actually visited their house on several occasions as a child and played in their playroom although he was a little older and his only interest was in football and not girls!!
We both feel this house move was meant to be and has changed both our lives we have both been given a second chance at happiness and are looking forward to the rest of our lives with happiness.
