How "Falling in Love" is like moving into a new home: It sucks to do alone.
For those of us who do it in pairs, one person usually has
more junk than the other, and when both people have a lot of junk, you need the help of some
good friends. You are usually more excited about these moves
than your friends are, who are hoping that this will be the last time they have to help
you move your heavy *** from one place to another.
Good thing, love goes well with pizza and beer.
When you are in love, it always seems like it's someone else's at first. At first, you
never know where to put your stuff, is this the bedroom or the kitchen? Do we do our laundry
here, or entertain ourselves? And then, new undiscovered corners of the
house seem fun and interesting, even if they were things you used to hate about other people's
houses. Or even your last house—sometimes, you'll find that you have only moved into
a different version of the place that you just left, and no matter how hard you try
to make it work, Some places, you'll find, they aren't for
you, or your roommate, who decides to move on, because they had unrealistic
expectations of the house, or hated yard work, or couldn't stop seeing themselves in the
houses down the street; regardless, you may then find yourself trying to convince someone
new to move into this home you just can't leave.
Such people are the same type to travel great distances to peer into their old windows,
expecting everything to be the same except no one really lives there anymore.
I do not recommend this type of behavior. Even if it leaves you destitute and homeless:
in all probability, you will find somewhere to be and, if you're lucky, may you stumble
into your perfect home unplanned, whether it's one you hardly see, but love all the
same, or one you learn to know in a constant comfortable way, a place to grow old in, with
just enough sun on the front door, walls to write your name on...
You'll learn to dance on the floors in your socks; find a hiding cellar. You'll spend
just the right amount of time tidying up, washing the windows, sweeping out the closets,
rearranging the furniture. At night, old familiar sounds will comfort
even the most worn places- The process slows, but you never really stop
moving in.
