I did the 2nd option mate, hence why I'm whinging about it on here. Relations are now somewhat strained. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Honest_Man#1 Posted November 11, 2021 Share Posted November 11, 2021 Going to a birthday event for one of her pals tomorrow. Has waited until now to tell me that it’s a black tie affair and other men are wearing Tuxedo type attire, which I don’t own. My options are now to go incredibly underdressed or to wear one of my normal suits and look like I’ve just came straight from the office. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CountyFan Posted November 12, 2021 Share Posted November 12, 2021 Buying a new build. Doing the supposedly sensible but daunting thing of stretching ourselves financially, especially since rates are still low. Gf is already moaning that we won't be able to afford any furniture etc. Can't quite get her head around the concept that we will hopefully live in this house for decades and we really don't need to do absolutely everything day one. "I'm no wanting to live in an empty house!", well f**k off to your mums then and I'll happy live on me own. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hedgecutter Posted November 13, 2021 Share Posted November 13, 2021 I thought that sitting on a cheapy slowly-deflating inflatable couch with laptrays for dinner and a mattress on the bedroom floor was part and parcel of the new homeowner experience. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
