I would like my input into our home as well. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-would-you-react-if-your-so-surprised-you-with-a-house#post-468248 Fri, 28 Dec 2012 08:12:36 +0000 Bookish 468248@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Oh heck no. Major decisions = both of us! DH always laughs at those car commercials where the woman is surprised with a car... he knows I'd kill him if he did that without me! I told him he's welcome to put a big bow on my next car, though :p </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-would-you-react-if-your-so-surprised-you-with-a-house#post-468214 Fri, 28 Dec 2012 07:03:46 +0000 Cherrybee 468214@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>If it was my dream house, I would be delighted. If it was a random house, I would be furious - picking the house is the fun part! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-would-you-react-if-your-so-surprised-you-with-a-house#post-468213 Fri, 28 Dec 2012 06:57:31 +0000 Trailmix 468213@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'd probably be happy. He has higher standards and better taste when it comes to these things, plus he's the money manager in our house, so if he surprised me with a house, I know it would be nicer than I'd ever go for but that it wouldn't be beyond our means. Plus, way less stress for me to have to deal with! DH actually found our current apt and we signed the lease without me actually seeing it bc I trust him so much with that stuff, and it is the best apt ever! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-would-you-react-if-your-so-surprised-you-with-a-house#post-468128 Fri, 28 Dec 2012 01:03:47 +0000 SAHM0811 468128@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>He knows what my dream house would entail.... So if it really lived up to my dreams (and his too), I'd be ecstatic! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-would-you-react-if-your-so-surprised-you-with-a-house#post-468083 Fri, 28 Dec 2012 00:30:23 +0000 Smurfette 468083@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would be upset, I would want to pick out our dream house together. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-would-you-react-if-your-so-surprised-you-with-a-house#post-468081 Fri, 28 Dec 2012 00:29:34 +0000 softcream 468081@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>happy only if i absolutely love the house, but i've been known to return maybe 90% of gifts i receive </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-would-you-react-if-your-so-surprised-you-with-a-house#post-468075 Fri, 28 Dec 2012 00:27:38 +0000 loveisstrange 468075@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Rainbow Sprinkles: I'd cry over a trip to NZ too. lol.

That's almost like getting a house...haha.<br /> She bawled she was so touched! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-would-you-react-if-your-so-surprised-you-with-a-house#post-467982 Thu, 27 Dec 2012 23:09:44 +0000 Mrs. Pickle 467982@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'd be pissed.

I'd be afraid that he committed a crime to get me a house. If it was all legal I'd be ecstatic. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-would-you-react-if-your-so-surprised-you-with-a-house#post-467781 Thu, 27 Dec 2012 21:56:01 +0000 yoursilverlining 467781@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'd be pissed.

As long as I love the house and we could afford it, I'd be happy. Less stress for me to go through with making decisions and buying a house! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-would-you-react-if-your-so-surprised-you-with-a-house#post-467710 Thu, 27 Dec 2012 21:44:43 +0000 singingbee 467710@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'd be okay with it because DH would pick out something even better than I thought I would want. He bought a couch without me and his mom was worried and he was too a little bit. I loved it. It didn't bother me. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-would-you-react-if-your-so-surprised-you-with-a-house#post-467709 Thu, 27 Dec 2012 21:44:36 +0000 Freckles 467709@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Thehistoryofus: I know!
