Sporadically, being an adult means making adult compromises.
Being in a new relationship means making big decisions together plus constantly respecting the other person’s quality of life.
However, living under one roof can complicate this flowery ideal. For one thing, if you have differing ideas about indoor air temperature control, you are certainly going to run into some challenges living in one house together. I know that my bestie plus I have had big difficulties overcoming our differences in air temperature control settings. She is constantly severely hot, plus I am constantly severely cold. In the middle of the summer, I am covered in goosebumps plus in the middle of the winter season he’s still covered in sweat through her shirt. My buddy and I constantly argument over the Heating, Ventilation plus A/C settings in the house, because neither one of us feels like my fantastic friend and I should live in discomfort. The situation only gets more complicated at evening. Suddenly, our air temperature preferences completely switch. At evening, I love being legitimately frosty plus she prefers to keep with the surrounding air temperature quite warm. My buddy and I struggled to sleep in the same bed for many years, until my fantastic friend and I finally found a compromise that works for both of us. She keeps a space furnace blocked in on her side of the bed, plus I use a small portable cooling system to supply cool air on my side. It’s not perfect, however it allows us to both get a restful evening of sleep rather than fighting over the covers plus kicking each other “on accident.” My buddy and I wish that it was more energy efficient to find a comfortable middle ground, however we’re blissful that we’re still together.
