Human beings often experience jolts of happiness - from buying a house, trying a new food, getting into a new relationship, etc. The problem with human beings is that we simply are not wired to maintain any initially high level of happiness we feel from a novel but subsequently unchanging set of circumstances. The problem, as is so often the case, is that my wife and I are human beings. Every dip in the water reaffirms a major reason why we bought the house in the first place. In fact, we're just now getting to use the pool, which was one of the biggest selling points.
Why? Did we make a mistake? Is the house not everything we hoped it would be? Do we have buyer's remorse? We were thrilled! We moved in full of enthusiasm.įive months later, we still maintain most of that enthusiasm. So we found a house with most of what we were looking for, made our best offer, and got it. With a 4-year old plus a new baby on the way, we found ourselves desiring more space and some additional amenities - namely a swimming pool, which comes in quite handy during the hot Texas summers.
My wife and I moved into a new house in January.
