I had never had air conditioning until he moved in with my partner.
My parents did not have central air conditioning in their home, plus the people I was with and I relied on a window air conditioner to keep our bedrooms cool.
When I went housekeeping with my first partner, there was no air conditioning in the old farmhouse that he owned. All of us had a window air conditioner in our bedroom plus a single in the 14 daughters. After I cut from my ex-partner, I took five years to myself. My daughters plus I had a small house where there was no air conditioning, plus the people I was with and I were not allowed to have window air conditioners. All of us had fans running all the time throughout the summer, trying to stay cool. I was having a lot of concerns with my asthma, plus the fans were not helping. When I met my partner whom I have now been with for 25 years, I was shocked to find out he had air conditioning. First time I walked into his home I almost cried. The air was so cool plus comfortable that I couldn’t help but to just rest down at the family room chair plus relax. He asked if I was feeling alright, plus I told him I was just overwhelmed with the air conditioning. When I told him that I had never had air conditioning, he chuckled. He told myself and others to just rest plus relax in my newfound air conditioning while he made supper for me. Six weeks later I married him.He still teases myself and others that the only reason I married him was for his air conditioning.
