We are set to close on 1500 sq ft 3bed 2bath in 2 weeks but in-laws are calling it tiny, and constantly bringing up the size. Here is a quote from them to show the types of things they say:
“TVs are on sale now too! The 85in may be bigger than your living room though!!”
Right now it’s just me and my spouse so I think it’s more than enough space. But these comments are getting to my spouse’s head and now spouse is saying things like “let’s save this table for when we get a bigger house”.
I didn’t think this was our forever home but aspiring towards bigger and better even before moving makes me feel inadequate.
Has anyone experienced something like this?
So are you just reposting reddit posts for sats?

BUSTED! Love this.
Someone with more time take a moment to check OP's other posts!
Thanks for uncovering this.
This is the same wife you're trying to cheat on with AI?
🤣
I live in a small 30sq box just in front of the ocean... don't care about other people opinion, and I continue enjoining life and surfing 🤙 PV
Yes by my wife. She always wants more space but then fills it with junk so I ain't going anywhere.
Stick to your guns. My motto is buy the most affordable, suitable home for you and your family in a nice area.
Big houses suck. More to clean, more space that needs heated/cooled, you more easily accumulate useless shit. 0/10, I'd stick with a smaller place.
You won't believe it but I still have my little apartment in Germany of 49 square meters (no TV). In spain me and my wife (kids out) are living in a nice but small apartment apartment of 95 m2 (no TV). All rented. We are both saving more in BTC that way. When I am on Crete I always rent a 40 m2 apartment by the sea. The south is crazy cheap. It's 300 euro/ month. And still no TV. I can't stand it....
Um I live in 600 sqft with my spouse and it's plenty of space. Our tv is 32 inches.
Prognosis: your in-laws are incurably normal. Don't change for them.
What home.
Sometimes family is a burden that is not easy to bear.
Just ignore them. if you can...
The things you own, end up owning you...
Lol
No!
Make jokes about it yourself. Own the joke and they'll lose interest. It mostly works. Mostly..
