ME: No worries, I know it will be an adjustment for both of us.
HE: Seriously, there are other things to think about, too.
ME: Well, I've always lived with someone and I know what it's like to need space, so no worries.
HE: But this is going to be your home, too.
ME: I know, but I'm very considerate about other people's space, so you just let me know and...
HE: Well, and then...
ME: What?
HE: The other thing you should know about living with me.
ME: What?
HE: I should have told you before you bought your ticket.
ME: Babe, I can deal... what.

ME: What?! Don't worry about it. What?

So here's to being stupid-anxious in love and uprooting your entire existence to move to another continent and country so you can follow your heart and not being embarrassed about how idiotic you look along the way.
