It's not who said this that bothers me, but rather what this person said. "I can't believe you bought a house." I can't believe it either. I feel like I've given in or given up on my dreams and have merely settled for reality. I feel like am betraying something, or letting someone down. This bothers me. I feel like I don't entirely belong here, where I am. I feel like I am still living in someone else's house.
I don't know how to come to terms with all this just yet. All I know is that my commute was really bothering me, and this place effectively solves all that. For now.
Something bothers me

The only reason we bought our first home was because it was the only thing that made any financial sense. I think maybe I Felt more of the opposite. I know home ownership symbolizes a lot of things to a lot of people. In our case it was more of a financial strategy.
Nothing wrong with living closer to work and having a place for your kids. Plus, it's not forever. Unless you bought with -0- down and are already upside down. Few of these types decisions are really permanent.

What you think about your decision is important.
What other people think? Pshaw!

Haha well Joan, as you know, I am not very active these days. Not surprising at all if you didn't catch all the details as I do not mention them that clearly.
Hey there Ima. I think this is the right choice to make as well. Obviously, buying a house is not a decision to take lightly, and it's something you guys know I have agonized over the years, preferring something smaller and more affordable. But again, when my situation changes, I can always sell this house again so we will see what happens.
