FH and I went to Bob's furniture store tonight to buy a bed and a couch, our first furniture purchases together. FH tells me in the car 'We're just looking so let's make it quick!' I'm thinking in my head 'Yeah, right! We're buying the furniture tonight!'
FH wanted a couch that reclines on both ends. He tried out three of them. He was so cute pretending he had a remote in his hand changing the channels. He liked two of them and I really liked one of them. Of course I got my way!
As for the bed, I knew we were going to get a queen because we need some space left in the apartment bedroom for other furniture. FH looks at the queen and goes, 'That's not big enough!' I made him lay down on it and I laid next to him to show him there was still space. He goes, 'You're too close!' He's so sweet! I told him we'll buy the king bed once we get a house.
Overall it was a good first experience with FH. Hopefully the bed and couch look nice in our apartment!

Re: NWR: Our first furniture purchases!
Fun checks! That was the one requirement from my FH. A king bed!!! That's all he cared about...and he didn't care if it took up the whole room. lol. I let him get his bed, and he let me get everything else.

Re: NWR: Our first furniture purchases!
Thanks! Yeah I need room for other pieces of furniture since I have tons of clothes! FH can fit all of his clothes in one bucket, thats due to the lack of clothes he actually owns!

Thankfully we have 2 bedrooms and two closets. I have the bigger closet, but the second room is slightly his entire walk in closet. lol. We will see what happens once a baby comes. lol.

I wish we had multiple bedrooms and closets. We have one bedroom with one closet. I already told him I'm taking the closet!

The EXACT same thing happened with DH and I. The one thing he wanted was a king bed and he let me choose everything else. I thought a king would be too big but honestly it's perfect!!
