I totally agree. Me & the wife just went through the same thing. We decided to buy. But we went through job stability, reliable income, how long we wanted to stay put, etc. Just be aware, the price tag on the home isn't the final price. Not including closing costs, realtor fees, interests, the home itself is going to tell you need to adjust to each other.
It'll sound like this: You're going to have to replace my AC, Garbage Disposal, Window seals, Toilet, and the leaky vent in the attic before we can like each other!!!"
Just be prepared, but in the end, if you're around for about 2-3 years, it'll pay off greatly!
Good Luck!
