    It's a very good sign of a healthy relationship when the partners respect with others' spaces. The fact that you made an effort to make sure he'd have his room in which he can be on his own shows how secure you are as a boyfriend. Good for you, guys! ❤️❤️

    Five years? Congrats!
    I truly believe partners/spouses should have separate spaces. Even sleeping separately sometimes, or always or more often if that works for you. It works so well for my husband and me.

      @alittlebitofdeepa7573 Год назад +10

      So true! Same with me & my husband. We shared a wardrobe for a couple of years when we were renting a tiny space. It was so hard on both of us because I have OCD and my husband is organized in his own way but mine was at a complete different level when it comes to organizing so when we bought our first house. We both wanted a wardrobe of our own and not interfere with each others stuff. Also sometimes we sleep in different rooms because I love watching a horror, thriller movie on a weekend with popcorn on my bed late at night and he loves watching his football match, cricket and other sports so we have our me time so that way we are giving each other some space & doing what we love & enjoy doing rather than having this silly argument about what we're going to watch. Lol 😁 also we are now parents and it still works for us both to be by ourselves sometimes and have some quiet time ⏲

      @@alittlebitofdeepa7573I get horrified looks when I tell people this! I keep his work uniforms in my closet so we still see each other in the morning. We can have sleepovers whenever we want! The rest of the time we get the best sleep, stretched out in a cool bed. In an organized (or not) to our own taste room. It all started when I got addicted to sleeping in the recliner. I call it the CFH- Chair from hell. It sucks you in 😅 then he claimed rhe CFH when I got us a new mattress he ended up not liking. When we bought our house we got a 3 bedroom so we could have our own spaces. And neither of us think twice about it bc we’re secure I guess. I love the sleepovers 😊 and my husband! AND my own bed/space!

    Also Benji: "I have wanted to give this plant a bit more light, so I think this is the perfect spot for it"

    Casterly is very good. I often times feel that IKEA is "too common" and overpriced for the material they use for furniture. Solid wood will last a lifetime. For the runner rug, I think if you put potted plants in the corner will help to settle in the rug to the hallway. You guys need larger artworks. Big walls need big artworks.
    I am so happy to see Chris again in this video. He's so beautiful. Tell him to upload book reviews again.

    This is genuinely my dream. I've always had my very own room, so why would I want to change that just because I live with someone? I 100% believe that a lot of relationships would be way happier and healthier if people would just let go of societal expectations and live in a way that makes them happy. And a lot of people would be way happier if they had a room of their own.

      We didn’t film ourselves doing it, but we played around with other bed placements and under the small window was our ideal position. However, when the bed is under the small window, it’s too close to the desk and the desk can’t fit anywhere else. So it’s definitely a compromise
