I suggested merging households with my partner. We both have teenage children and would need a bigger house as neither of our current properties could accommodate the entire family. My partner wants me to sell my house and take out a mortgage in my name while they keep their own property until the early redemption clause on the mortgage expires in two years. The discussion on location was also heavily weighted to areas that would have minimal impact of their current routine for schools and social activities but would add between 40 to 60 minutes to my own commute. It left me feeling that I was making all the concessions, being financially libel and my partner was getting all the benefits with no responsibilities. When I said I couldn't proceed under these circumstances I was lambasted for getting cold feet and not being committed. I didn't feel like I was being unreasonable, I discovered further information after the initial conversation and I felt I was within my rights to say I have change my mind.
