I'm getting married next year and I'll be moving into my husband-to-be's home after the big day. One thing I'm scared about is wanting to change a few things to make it feel like a home for me too, but I'm not sure how to go about it without making him feel bad.
He's been living alone in his own place for years, and so it's a bit of a bachelor's pad. He already has kitchenware and bedspreads (etc), but I'd like to change some stuff when I move in (his bedspreads are all old and his dishes are all unmatched/not part of a set, so I'd like to replace his dishes and other things like that).
I don't want to offend him or make it seem like his stuff isn't good enough for me. To me, it would've been easier if we were buying a new house together and starting afresh where we would both get the things we'd like together rather than me moving into his space and replacing some of the things I don't like. But seeing as that isn't happening, has anyone who's been in a similar situation got any tips on how to handle this?
