"I'm at an age now where it's the thing I have to do; if I don't do it now, I will carry on as I'm doing." I, I, I. "It's all about the business and Mel fulfilling his dream with the business.' Imagine a married woman having to say that because her husband has never actually decided that she is part of his life. You'd think her husband was a monster. But if you just live with someone, and they basically say, 'My way or the highway,' and you've spent years auditioning to be acceptable to that person with no commitment, then like this woman, you just have to forget yourself, have no hopes, dreams or shared vision of a life with that person, and just be an appendage to the other person's ego and desires. She made a bad deal by moving in with a man who has never committed to her.
That's the living together mentality: your 'partner' is just an aspect of your lifestyle, not your other half. You are not 'two becoming one flesh' or two people forming a family, just two people using the other person for your pleasure, lifestyle, comfort, companionship, sex, not to be alone... while still thinking of yourself as essentially single, pursuing your own goals and the other person can go along or get lost.
If you do not know by the 5th or 6th date - without having sex with the person - that 'this could be the one and my life would feel empty without this person - and BOTH people feel that way, that marriage and a permanent commitment is the only way this can go... then this is NOT the one for you and move on. You WILL know in a very short time if the person you are dating is so special, so amazing, such a soul-mate that you already miss them after one conversation or a few dates. If you don't know - living together will NOT reveal it, because you are both just auditioning for the other person's acceptance, and one person - almost always the woman - will have to stuff down her own personality, hopes, dreams, vision of life, etc., and live in the shadow of the other person's selfishness. Do the research on whether living together improves relationships. If you think living together is a good idea, you will be shocked at the solid research showing quite the opposite is true.
I am leaving my spouse for the exact reason you explained
I could have written this myself! You're absolutely right.
Exactly this !! Wow. Thank you for putting this into words.
You're being a bit harsh, imo. Many long-term couples who don't legally marry still feel like a family. My son and his partner are not married, yet are raising 3 children. They feel, act, and are, a committed couple. And I think that successful long-term relationships are ones where the couples have matured together. It takes years (not 5th or 6th date) to establish a loving, respectful and committed partnership. You don't need to be married to enjoy that kind of relationship, either.
Beautifully and accurately said. I love your description of living together as "auditioning for the other person's acceptance." So, so true.
I was a US flight attendant for over 35 years. You absolutely can live anywhere *BUT* you better not be late for a flight check-in at your base. Do that a few times and you can be fired. I don't know what routes she flies, but she better not need to get to Heathrow more than once a week. She's going to burn herself out from the stress.
Not exactly a match made in heaven, I'd say
She is doing all the sacrifices. He is pursuing HIS dream. All I have to say is he needs to be considerate of the situation from her viewpoint. He may want to go to the wilds of Wales. But she needs to be near her work as well. Compromise is well & good as long as one isn't being FORCED to do all the giving while the other does all the taking. Been there, done that = resentment.
I was thinking if she took half day to travel and stayed in a hotel close to the airport she would hopefully be rested and have less stress.
@@jillgott6567spend more money!
As long as you aren't on reserve, then yes you could live anywhere. Or if you don't want the long commute, stay in a hotel, or with family/friends, the night before your flight.
But being on reserve, you need to be at most an hour away, yo ensure you're at briefing on time. I assume she works for BA, and it doesn't mention if she has schedule or not.
If this was Midsummer Murders he'd be the first to go
I kept looking at this girl's face and wondering what she was doing with this guy, she obviously loves her job and is not even married to him.
She can’t work as a flight attendant for ever and the guy seems to care about her, is considerate enough to include her in the house search even if they’re not legally married (Idk when that was said, judging only by your comment), he is financially stable and they seem to plan to live their lives together. I don’t see what is wrong with wanting to stay with him.
Love Kirsty! She is wise and hilarious :)
I personally love bungalows with everything on one level!! First one was perfectly gorgeous ❤️ I have to agree with Kirstie he would buy the barn conversion even if she wasn't 100% on board which is sad.
When in doubt, DON'T!
It's funny how the Brits equate bungalows with old people. Here in Canada, bungalows don't seem to have that stigma attached to them. Thanks for the upload.
Neither in America. it's JUST a one-story house. some are very lovely and some can be very very expensive. It's NOT for old people. Huh? I don't understand!🥴
In America, in certain what they called bedroom communities-- which means all houses-- it is desirable it can be a lovely, sprawling, upscale house, on one level! that's all it is ! that thinking is so bizarre.
Older people buy them because they realise that one day they won't be able to walk or get upstairs. My mum bought one in 2000 for £87,000 and it was the best thing when she became ill with dementia. Now it's worth £525,000. I love bungalows and they have really big gardens...
Can they not try to find a compromise within an hour's drive of Heathrow? That's what we would do. G Ire
Love watching all the Locations. Sometimes they are so old you've forgotten them as here. K&P look very young.
I was never quite sure what she really wanted in a house, but with so few properties available meeting his criteria, they may have to look someplace other than Wales.
Her partner is a dreamer who isn't going anywhere - if he was he wouldn't have given up so easily and I don't think he would have relied on someone else to find him a property
She can't possibly live and work 2.5 hours from the airport. She will be exhausted after trans-Atlantic and trans-Pacific flights. Rent and try it for a couple months to prove it is insane.
Nothing wrong with a bungalow. All on one level. I owned one in my 40's. I loved it. So easy to keep clean. I now own a one bedroom apartment (All on one floor) similar to a bungalow...
Here in the US, called a Ranch. Hubby and I bought and lived happily in one for over 20 years. I especially appreciated it when I accidentally broke an ankle and hubby and caretakers didn't have to go up/down, up/down to help me. Once I was allowed to be off my bed and vertical an hour a day, I zoomed around on my knee scooter! The irony is that we've built our forever home and it's two-stories! But the truth is that there's only a Bonus Room (over garage) on the second. Everything else is on the ground level and we wouldn't have it any other way.
I don't think a ranch is a bungalow! A bungalow is usually very small, suitable for one or two people at most. my bungalow has 2 bedrooms, 1 bathroom, 1 sitting room and 1 kitchen. It's tiny, far too small to zoom around on a scooter!
🎉
@@jillhobson6128 I've seen some real estate programs that show a bungalow that total anywhere from 1200 to 1600 sf. My ranch was 1600 sf. But I'll take your opinion on it and I appreciate the information :)
@@gibbersking6575 I presume sf means square feet. We don't measure our houses in square feet (or metres). I wouldn't have a clue how many square feet my home is, nor would most Britons!
We think a ranch is a very large farm covering many acres.
I don't think bungalow is a a word in the US, you'd probably call it a one storey house.
@@jillhobson6128 Well, bungalow is a word in Canada where there were very many built in the '60's and 70's very modern, very big as land was plentiful and it was the latest thing. I find the " UK bungalow prejudice" rather ridiculous ..
Their old home looks wonderful. Is she planning on leaving her job to work in the business, otherwise how's she getting to work? What a catastrophe.
Yeah I wondered that myself... since this is kind of in the boonies, if they would be offering accommodations, or set up yurts or something with meals. I thought if he isn't wanting the house to be near the business, why didn't he just buy land elsewhere for business and set that up. It's not as though that kind of business would be booked up every day...
Team building trainer....aka...a professional con artist
I think that poor lady is seeing the light ...pity she didn't think harder before he sold her home. Selfish man with a dream that might or might not work...probably not
This man is supposedly a team building trainer but I was always taught there is no 'I' in team' someone should tell this guy the same!
Nothing mentioned about the guy having a business plan so I presume he is just another empty headed dreamer with no real get up and go - he is destined for failure
So fun these guys
I hope you mean Kirstie and Phil because the couple weren't fun at all
👍👍👍 All Homes is THE channel for Location Location Location episodes. Best Volleyball is a WASTE OF TIME channel.
Oh I Love Phil! "Kristy, she has him, her husband, that is What Love Is. That is what you do".
More women need to hear and understand this! Thank You Phil.
The couple is not married. She was an idiot.
The 'two thumbs up' house was decorated like an old people's home. It was ghastly. I don't understand why the beautiful, clean, modern first house was off the table (it's a bungalow; the land - in Wales! - is not flat), and that over-decorated, out of date ugly house was acceptable. Blech.
I have a feeling that couple will split up. He is selfish and she is not happy
I can see one relationship going down the tubes here! Are Mal and Ali still together? What does Ali want for the rest her life.
I don't think there's ever been an update on this couple, but there have been updates on other couples from older episodes.
Hopefully she will see the light and find someone who isn't just a dreamer
He came across as a selfish dose not my opinion. Hopefully they found happiness- together, or apart
Do you think people will want to take leadership courses,I fee a bit sorry for this guy
I feel sorry for her.
To be fair, he wasn't the only one who wanted to start a business based on an idea and nothing more. They've been like 20, 30+ of them throughout the series, and that's NOT including the ones from Relocation, Relocation.
I agree. She looked rather miserable@@AFAskygoddess
Who wants to drive all the way up there for those stupid courses?
@@ElCid48 Pople who want to get away from their families. =p
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️👍🥰🤗
Leave him, if your not part of his priorities, ugh!
UK IS OVERPRICED
Wonder what happened to these two? Anyone have an update?
No, there was never an update on this couple and given that this was filmed 18 years ago, there's never going to be an update.
I don't understand the meaning that UK people don't want a bungalow because that means for old people. In the USA if you have a one level house you will know you can stay if you become unable to us stairs and not just because of age, accidents like braking a leg. Life changes and a one level house is for LIFE. She is crazy to live out far from everything. NO Friends will start to fade after the first visit because too far.
Perhaps someone in the UK can clarify this better but for what I can understand most British people (who live in a house) are used to living in older homes that are on multiple levels so they view bungalows as "old people homes"
Leave him!
Where is the ending to the show?
The house hunters don't always find a house at the end. I know a lot of people don't like that but that's what makes this show more realistic compared to shows like House Hunters It's just not always possible to find a house to buy in three days and to successfully close on it by the time the camera crew come back.
@@thehungrygoldfish the cheat, so to speak, of house hunters is that the couple shown has ALREADY purchased their housee and the program is just kind of recreating the process of HOW and WHY they came to be in that particular house at the the show. Quite a bit of creative license is taken.😂
@@thetruthisthelight0910 Yes, I know that. That's why I said LLL is more realistic, lol.
I wonder if they're still married, lol.
Hopefully NOT. She must have told him to take a hike years ago and found a better and more considerate partner.
They aren’t married. So no real commitment there either.
My God all you people argue about the goofiest stuff! I just dislike that they cut off the program with...... DUHHHHHH What was the point of a "no ending" program.
Yeah most of the older episodes didn’t have an ending really. It wasn’t until two years after this was filmed when they said if they got a house that Phil and Kirstie found for them, found another house on their own or they’re continuing their house hunt.
I never understand these episodes where unmarried couples buy houses (even just friends). Breakup is too easy. This guy is so selfish.
You know married couples can also break up, right? lol
The houses aren’t winners for her
There are a few personal comments that Kirstie says in A LOT of the episodes that I don't agree with at all! She should stick with finding houses.
She is rude and judgemental
1:39 in 🤢🤮🤜
Oh my fussy
Kirsty is so worried about how much Allie is sacrificing for Mel. Maybe she should ask herself how much Mel has compromised and sacrificed for Allie over the past decades waiting for his turn to come. It's nasty to demonize him for wanting his needs to be recognized at some point.
Such an old episode. Not worth watching.
It's easier to upload older episodes on TH-cam. There's less of a copyright issue. If you want brand new episodes, you have to go straight to the source, not TH-cam.
@@Kevin-sm8pn But very definitely worth watching, I think!
Not worth watching for you but most of us are watching on you tube because we don't live in the UK
she should just move on from this guy
SEEN. help!!!! This wont work.
