When you think about (and plan for) you and your SO's future, how far is too far to think ahead? My SO and I have to decide on a couple things and it's hard for me to make those decisions now, because I think "oh in 2 years I want to do this..." or "well maybe in 5 years I'll be okay with this..." Our lease runs out in 2 months and we want to get a new place so we can get our own furniture. Make it more "ours". But he's always wanted to build a house. But I think I want to go to Chile or Italy in 2 or 3 years. But maybe in 2 or 3 years I'll be okay living here? And I hate moving so if we move into another apartment we'll eventually have to move into a house. So then I think we should go ahead and build a house. But then what If I DO want to go to Italy? ...
I guess it's good to have a rough schematic of your life (for financial reasons and such), but should you let these potential events shape your present life? I mean 5 years is a long ways away. Lots of things could happen. Hell, lots of things happen in 1 year.
