How things have been going since i have been married

Patrick, on December 19, 2019 at 2:08 AM Posted in Married Life 2 8

Its not much different than not being married. Amy has her ups and downs with me and life. Its how we handle situations and move on and learn from them. The smallest things you do in any relationship whether married or not are a big thing. Like cleaning the house, paying bills and acting mature. Getting married was a good thing for both of us. Her children were encouraging it. My recommendation on any marriage no matter how long you have been married 2 months or 60 years. You go on a date with your spouse, say I love you and give space to each other. Do not micromanage your spouse> Like what are you doing? YOU ARE WE IN A MARRIAGE NOT I.

    I’ve seen a video where this pastor was speaking about marriage & something’s he said is that when people get married they forget to keep dating the cycle should be repeated! Everything you did to get to be your girlfriend & then your fiancée and then your wife date her that way the love that brought y’all together doesn’t die! Or that thing that attracted y’all doesn’t to go away!


    I think a lot of the time some married people tend to lose that, like ok we married now & go in a corner ignore one another or doing whatever! Great advice you gave thanks for sharing!

    You definitely have it for sure. In my lifetime I have seen couples discontinue dating while married. The result is a marriage slowly falls apart. From the day I met Amy no matter how old she gets and her beauty fades away. I don't think for one minute I could love her less for changing physically. I knew I was in love when I first met in person. I have to share my photo of us on our first date.

    I agree! I still ask my husband to go on dates! Though last time I asked if he wanted to go out for dinner his response was "What are you trying to butter me up for???" Haha
    Happy to hear things are going well and you and your wife are a team in all things!

    We go on weekly dates, usually on Fridays. It’s a chance for us to reconnect and talk, without interruption from the kids.

    With my work schedules its hard for a date night but we do simple things like going to see Christmas lights with dogs. My stepson lives with us. I give them space by seeing my mom in her 80"S I do snowblowing, bringing wood in the house and removal of snow on the roof.
