Question: Ladies!! Why do you feel that the ENTIRE house should be decorated your way?
Here’s the deal. I have owned my house for 11 years.

In all that time I have never lived with a girl until recently. It is a decent sized house. 4 bedrooms,3 full bathrooms,2 living rooms and 2 dining rooms.

The girl I have been with for just over a year just moved in a few months ago. Until that time,my whole house was decorated as a Bar/pub/lounge. I put alot of my stuff into storage and consolidated down into just one dining room and one living room which are connected ( I took the smaller pair) for my style of decor.

I told her that she may decorate the larger living room and larger dining room, all 4 bedrooms,and all 3 bathrooms any way she wants.

Well she is not happy with that. She wants the whole house her way and calls my decor “stupid” Well what is stupid to her is important to me. I dont really like flowers and potpourri,but I know its important to her.

I am not budging on this and I am not asking if I am right or what should I do. I have the right to come home from a hard day at work and be happy in my surroundings.

What I want to know is for the ladies that are like her and agree with her. My question is:

Why does she feel that she has some right to the entire house to be decorated her way and nothing my way? And before anyone suggests that I should compromise,read my entire section above and you will see that I am already MORE than compromising.

Answer by James H
Get her told then, be the man of the house
You like the way you want it, tell her, if she dissagrees…do it anyway
if she can take over the way you want your own house, take it back
