Whenever we met online, I never really thought about where my husband and I would live.
We were both too busy being ridiculously in love to stop and worry about silly mundane things like where we were going to live or what kind of climate it might be in.
At that point, we were so busy with each other that we didn’t even think to ask which hemisphere we were living in! It didn’t matter at that point, but now that we are married it does matter. At this point in my life, I wish I would have used better sense and found out the type of place that my husband was living in. I wish I had asked him before I agreed to marry him that’s for sure! We decided that we would live together in his house since it was already paid for, and all that seemed to make sense at first. But when I met him for the first time, I realized that the type of climate that he lived in was not going to work for me! It is so hot where he lives out on a tropical island that I always feel like I’m going to just melt. The bad thing about it is that even though he never has to have a heating system in his home, he is constantly worried about the air conditioning for some reason. I’m from the other side of the world, basically. I tend to worry about completely different things. I’m from a very cold part of the world and wasting heating was never something that we would ever even think about doing! Not only that, but we always had three sources of heating: a fireplace, a wood burning stove, and our furnace. My husband’s house only has one and it’s not very good!
