Fighting over the nursery.

[bsiekman]

I don't know what's going on. I am so annoyed by my significant other lately. I want to paint what will be ther nursery gray with a light yellow accent wall but he is refusing to allow it to be painted. He says "it will mess up the color scheme up stairs." I could understand that if it was in a main room. It is going to be our babies room for years. It is a dark brown right now & he said that when we find out the sex, then we can accent it with pink/blue. I just don't feel like this is my home. I feel like what he & his ex wife chose is here to stay & I don't like it. I'm not wanting to change the whole house, just the one room. Is that too much to ask?! (And his 9 year old has a dark purple room) -_-

Thank you!

I don't have social media except this:). Hope things get better for you!

I literally started crying I was laughing so hard. But that's what I feel like! Thanks for letting me vent ladies. I figured it would be a little better doing so on here, since we all have crazy hormones, than ranting on facebook. haha Have a happy March!

My husband and ex wife lived in our house but right when I moved in we picked out colors together for the whole house and painted our room Gray with a damask black and gold glitter wallpaper. If he would of been that way I would of never moved in. And would of made that very comment, childish or not. I am so sorry and wish there was something to say but it does not sound like he is going to change

Linda lmfao that is something I would say! Made me laugh

[lindashalee]

Wow he's just unreasonable isn't he. I'm speechless really. It just seams so unfair. I'd be mad too. I'd go way childish and be like well why don't you and your ex just pick all my baby's things since what I like "doesn't go with YALLS color scheme"

[bsiekman]

He says the purple goes with the color scheme. Should have specified that in my last comment.

[bsiekman]

I've brought it up & he says it goes with the color scheme. -_- Its a dark dark brown. I know it would look good with either pink or blue, but I've never wanted my child's room to be super gender dominant unless it is their choice. He just doesn't care. This has gotten so out of control its ridiculous. We haven't talked almost all day because of how bad the argument got. He doesn't understand that I don't feel like this is my home, even though I've explained it to him dozens of times. I've even told him that I'll get my own place so I can do what I want....childish I know. I'm just at the end of my rope already.

I'd bring up that purple room... You should be able to paint it. Although brown depending on the shade does go good with pink or blue. But for real I'd tell him how you feel about it.

No I think that's totally fair. My husband is having a hard time with it too. I think for my husband it stems from his serious dislike of change.  He doesn't function very well with it at all. Maybe that could be a factor?

Although I agree it isn't fair. I've been trying to slowly get my hubby on board with small changes and praising when the change happens. It's going well. I hope everything works out for you!
