Posted by julietteeno...too much effort in coordinating schedules etc. I want something short and sweet.
welcome party?



Posted by NemDeuxlolll wow. I did want to have a sit down regarding the house rules but that piece of art would be more of a gift for me...
a nicely and creatively designed piece of art with the house-rules.

Posted by NemDeuxI def agree on the rules and I was planning on that at a sit down. I personally would never consider that a gift. If someone gifted me with that I'd find it so condescending lol. But the rainbow is beautiful because of all the different colors so there you go.Posted by stillstillwateri am serious. take a nice classy paper - in your neatest handwriting - write down the house-rules. doodle/decorate. put in a nice frame - put a nice bow on it. in coordinating colours.Posted by NemDeuxcan't tell if you're being sarcastic or serious?Posted by stillstillwateryou can hang it up together, make a toast to friendship and punctual payments and i hope it does not go downhill from there!Posted by NemDeuxlolll wow.

idk how close you are with this friend - but personally, i would not fuse friendship and living.

Posted by stillstillwatera nice key chain to put that key on ?
Hello dxp folks,
Just need some suggestions regarding a gift. So my friend is moving in with me and because she's moving into my place I thought it'd be nice to get her a "welcome to your new home" gift for self-explanatory reasons.
She doesn't have any dishes and although she's obviously more than welcome to use mine was thinking a little dish set for 2.
Any thoughts appreciated ๐

Posted by Ellygantreally sweet....but too mushy for me. Maybe it helps if I mention my placements: Cap, Libra Moon, Aqua Merc, Aqua Venus, Sag Mars...
I moved in with a good friend of mine recently. Iโd known about her previous roommate woes, think she stole or used, problems she caused. In addition to knowing her preferences from being my friend.
So I bought her a bunch of grocery and house items. Her favorite flowers. A handwritten card with a poem I wrote about her, friendship and new beginnings.
She was away on a trip the weekend I moved in so I vacuumed and mopped the house, bought new candles and lit them before she got home. Bathed her dog.
She took me out to dinner and bought champagne and we stayed up drinking the night she got back.

Posted by stillstillwaterI agree - do it together - and then keep it handy to rehash for updates from you both as you learn to get along ... no hidden agendas therePosted by NemDeuxI def agree on the rules and I was planning on that at a sit down.

I could see that she might appreciate it. Also though when it comes to rules I want to draft it together since it's already my place I don't want her to feel like I'm the "boss" or something...

Posted by julietteelol that's too cute. I'm not a millennial BUT the texting does go better with the Cap dislike of "small talk". With phone conversations its like you need small talk before you get to the point. I hate that. Text is like, "Hi and bam to the point". Although I do hate useless texting unless in the random mood for nonsense.Posted by stillstillwaterPosted by julietteelol true. it's fun for a random occasion ... same as dxp.

Watch out for that Gemini moon!!

Posted by NemDeuxTake her advice! I watch allot of Judge Judy and I'm like, "Why didn't they communicate what they want/don't want?!" That's WHY I NEVER want a room mate.

I was also very apprehensive and I'm going have to bend a little in things BUT it will also be fun to have a partner in crime. She works a lot and so do I so that might be good for us to not get on each other's nerves. Plus it will be a good motivation for me to get out of the house when I want me time like go to the library or a cafe and read a book by myself. ๐

Posted by EvatheDivahaha yes i love that! Definitely gotta draft that "Rule List" but I would do it together so that her opinion matters too and may be some rules that she likes that I need to follow.

Girl, if you tell her about the "rules" don't you think it will go in one ear and out the other? She'll agree with you and then forget! You haven't learned from Judge Judy when she says, "Where is the contract? Anything outside the four corners of this is null and void until you add an asterisk (*) and you BOTH sign it!". If she breaks a rule, you can always point to this said gift and say, "Remember this rule?"
But again, to each his own.....see ya on Judge Judy next year!!! ๐

Def agree on having it in writing. She's straight forward so it makes it easier for me to be straight forward too in reminding her. I can tell some things I've told her she crunched up her nose but I just explain my point of view and I can tell its hard for her to digest but she goes along with it. lol.

My best friend is a cap sun/gem moon. So like a blend of you two?
I got her practical things she didnโt have when she moved. And wine lol. Can never go wrong with booze.
The house rules thing sounds more like a conversation than a gift. If Iโd been given that as a gift when I moved in Iโd be like โuh are you saying you donโt want me to live here?โ Lolclick to expand
