Did anyone feel petrified right before they moved in with FH?
I'm just curious. I was going through so many other changes in my life, ie. moving to another state, my parents just sold my childhood home, etc, that it was not a huge adjustment. I was more preoccupied with the other things.

Re: Did anyone feel petrified right before they moved in with FH?
yes and no.
i was spending a lot of nights at his place anyway so i wasnt scared about living with him.
what i was scared of was things was now ours. it was our phone bill, our rent, our gas bill. instead of me having my own phone bill at my parents and he having his own phone bill we now had a phone bill.
i was scared of what if i couldnt afford something, what if i bought the wrong groceries, things like that.
but those fears soon left me when i knew no matter what he loves me for me and that through thick and thin he'll always be there for me.

I was scared about moving out of my apartment with my friends because it made it all seem so real! I was scared and excited at the same time. It has only been a week and a half and I LOVE living with him!!!!!

I was sad than scared. It is hard leaving your parents after living with them for 27..Im now 29 years old. Im now past that, but get a little sad, because I miss sitting down and watching t.v with them

I am moving in with my FH in two days! Yikes! I am excited and scared at the same time. I have lived on my own for the past 4 years so this is going to be an adjustment for both of us.

I wasn't scared at all, just excited (I didn't come straight from my parents house).
I was scared about moving to CA to be with him (but that was 2 yrs before we moved in together).

OMG...YES!!!!!! And I remember this like it was yesterday...
He rented a beautiful condo in Montauk for us for a week. The second night we were there he told me that he wanted to move in like 2 weeks earlier than planned (due to his work schedule, friends that he had helping him move, etc) and I CRIED!!!! Here we are in this awesome place that he paid a fortune for, and I'm CRYING!!!!
(I was more afraid of losing 'me time')

Re: Did anyone feel petrified right before they moved in with FH?
I'm still looking forward to it!! Arrggh!! LOL. I should be moving in with him in a few weeks, though.
I'm not afraid of living with him at all. But I'm afraid of living so close to his mother. She's right next door! Only a driveway between the houses, so they are VERY close. That has me concerned...
But at 33 I'm looking forward to starting my life with him and being a WIFE. I will certainly miss things about this home and my family, but it's definitely time to move forward.
I think it's normal to feel afraid and apprehensive.

I should be moving in with him within the next few months and feel excited and scared. I play 'weekend wifey' and love the time we spend together (we laugh a lot), but everyone keeps saying its DIFFERENT when you live there 24-7. And they say it with this feeling like it may be bad!! What could be so different or bad about it?

No, I was excited! It had been 3 years of him living on long island and me in Manhattan! I wanted to be able to see him every day! It worked out well for us! Everybody's different, though!

Re: Did anyone feel petrified right before they moved in with FH?
I asked this question because a very close friend of mine is about to move in with her long time boyfriend and she has wanted this for so long, but she is FREAKING out. She feels like she is losing part of her independence, and I keep telling her that she won't. I think she is just feeling all the emotions that come with a big change and is having trouble decoding them. I LOVE living with JT, and I am missing him SO much now that I am back in NY. Especially since all of my stuff is still in MA. All of OUR stuff I should say. It's been weird, but it just works out better that I came home a few months earlier.

alicia- same here. i spent 6 nights a week at his place for the first 6 months we were dating. so it was only natural that i moved in. i missed my mom but i was really excited to have my own (our) apartment. it was a wonderful decision. i love living with him. now we have a house together!
it may be a little tough in the beginning, but i think its a great idea to live together before you get married. we will have lived together for almost 2 1/2 years by the time we get married & it has been a really good thing for us.
