Most likely, on the Internet you saw a huge variety of the most varied options for the interior of apartments and houses - from just pretty designs to something unimaginable, not amenable to common sense. However, this guy seems to have gone too far. However, judge for yourself.
Chris Colris
It all started in his bedroom. Meet Chris Colris. Chris is thirty-seven years old, and he will surely surprise you. He had a successful career, a loving girl and an apartment in Manhattan.
Together with his lover, he moved to Brooklyn and put up his own apartment for sale.
As one notorious publication writes: "Three things happened that forever changed Chris's life: he could not sell the apartment, he began to feel claustrophobic, living with his girlfriend and all her things, and he came across a science fiction novel about the culture of the eighties games."
The book that turned the guy's life upside down
Chris himself says the following: “This book just turned everything in my head. It opened my eyes and I could not believe that it was not surrounded by things that I love.”
Then he began to change his new home.
The girl supported him in everything and even helped design the tiled floor. Then it just completely swallowed Chris Colris, he plunged into this matter with his head. The guy spent more than thirty-two thousand dollars to turn his room into a gallery of the eighties of the last century.
His bride did not like it. She realized that she was fed up with this strange obsession with the guy. First, the girl refused to attend the opening party, and then returned the wedding ring to him and announced her decision to part with Chris.
Now Chris has his dream room, in which he invested a lot of money and in which he is comfortable living, but there is no longer a loved one who supported him all this time. Was it worth it? Everyone will decide for himself.
As Chris himself says: “This is not what I wanted when I just started repairing my room. I didn’t think it would happen.”
However, now the guy seems to be enjoying his life, holding weekly gaming tournaments with his friends.
Was it worth it?
This story has been widely publicized, and each Internet user relates to it in his own way. Of course, everyone has their own opinion on this, based on his own priorities and life experience, but most nevertheless agree that this obsessive idea to remake the room ruined the guy’s life.
Being left without a loved one because of the room is rather strange and unpleasant, but, on the other hand, this can change the life of Chris and his ex-girlfriend for the better. However, it is worth remembering that obsessions and dependencies, especially for which large sums are spent from the family budget, are almost always bad. Most often this leads to quarrels and breakups, and if you are not ready for this, then it is better not to take risks.
