When decorating a new place with her new husband, Lauren Conrad found that her dude had different requirements for furniture sturdiness than she did. "I think he really appreciated my ability to recognize his needs and accommodate," she noted of her choice to invest in a durable coffee table instead of her lucite pick, which allowed him to kick up his feet after exhausting days at work. If your partner likes to heavily flop down on the bed or tuck their still-sneakered feet up on the couch with them, consider their needs instead of forcing them to walk on eggshells. Try a wooden bed frame instead of a dainty wire headboard or a gray couch instead of the white fabric one you'd been eyeing. Living in fear of your furniture isn't fun for them, and constantly nagging somebody you love isn't great for you either!
The solution: Keep their unique needs in mind with your furniture choices.
