At least he appreciates a spice rack

Now that FSU and I are officially moving in together, (oh did I mention he is moving here in 5 days? or that I am disgustingly excited about it?)we have begun preliminary discussions of decor.

You see, FSU is a man's man, as in no one would ever question his sexuality, he's not even the slightest bit metro. Therefore he also has very manly taste. Neutrals, black, dark colors, pretty run of the mill stuff. He thinks I am being critical when I say that, but I'm really not. While I wouldn't consider my taste "girly", (I'm not into florals, pinks, or anything super preppy, YUCK!) I do like color. I can tell already the biggest hurdle we have to overcome is compromising in the decor department.

I have never lived with a boyfriend before, I don't think I could have been happy living with any of the previous ones. This puts me at a disadvantage because FSU on the other hand lived with his ex-girlfriend for a year before. Obviously it didn't work out, and I'm counting on the fact that it was her fault of course since he is perfect. So here is my request; Atlanta, Philadelphia this should particularly motivate you to respond, Advice? Horror story? What to expect that I wouldn't have even thought of?

I imagine a sort of pre-marital bliss with a few scattered arguments over paint colors that end in laughter and tickle fights. No?
