So my DH and I are looking for a house.
I work from home currently, however my office is in uptown charlotte. I also work as a consultant so depending on the project, I go to different sites. But this one I'm at I can work from home which is great.
My husband is securing a job in Mooresville which is about 45 minute to an hour commute to Charlotte (in traffic). And it could go to over an hour if there is an accident or it's raining.
I'd like to keep our options open and look at houses in other areas that are in the middle. That way when I have to go into the office for meetings, or if my proejct ends and I have to commute daily, it'll be a somewhat decent commute.
He wants to live in Mooresville bc it's near his job. But also Mooresville is more expensive and mostly for ppl w/ kids. We dont have kids and I dont plan on having any, any time soon. I'd rather be close to Charlotte where there are things that I like to do and certain grocery stores there that are not located in Mooresville.
Am I being selfish for requesting to look at houses in other areas? And to look for something in the b/w our jobs?
You need to weigh up all your options and then you can hopefully come to a decision toghether. He can't expect you to give up everything, you both have to do a little compromising.
Keep looking and look for that best compromise house. Good luck!
