It's not uncommon when cohabiting for one person to take the reins when it comes to decorating the home. If this is the case in your new place, your significant other might be feeling a bit left out! Even if they don't communicate it to you, it's not a comfortable feeling to live in a home that has no traces of your own personality. To avoid totally steamrolling your partner's taste, be sure to represent the two of you in your decor — whether that means framing their childhood photos for your gallery wall or decorating the bathroom in their favorite color, showing sensitivity to your significant other's preferences is extremely important when moving in together.
The solution: Seek equal representation in your decorative choices.
