I (and other board members, I am sure) never meant to be judgemental. We just feel that you deserve some of your dreams to be fulfilled also. If you want that house, go after it! Start to check things out and show him what you have found. If you find a house that you like....have him go to the next viewing. If he is like my DH, he does not want to do the legwork but will listen if I do all of the prep work. If I make all of the plans and get everything ready for a trip,,,he will go and enjoy himself, but will not help with the preparation. Then we make a decision together. That's how it is here.....just think that he is not interested until it is presented on a platter. Might work for you???
