Marriage Life

For me things are fine with married life. I actually told my husband the other day that I’m really grateful for him during this time and I’m glad I married someone I actually like haha. Can’t imagine having to shelter in place with someone who I didn’t get along with or wasn’t taking this seriously.

I feel pretty similar to Kelly. I also don't think I'd use "survive" to describe my marriage. I enjoy spending time with my husband. We work together well and have good communication.

Yea things are good with me too. i honestly don't feel like anything changed once we got married? i always kind of felt like things shouldn't. i mean your foundation was already there to begin with, it's just more committed now.

I’m with Hannah, my wife and I are doing more than just surviving. This is definitely not what we expected out of our first year of marriage, but we’re enjoying the time that we get to spend together and are so grateful for each other, our home, and stable jobs. This will be something that makes us stronger in the end.

We're doing super well! We just got married on Leap Day so we've pretty much been together non-stop since we got married (minus a few days in the office once we returned from the honeymoon & one week of him not working from home). I've loved getting to spend so much time with my husband! We're both working from home so we are hardly apart at all during the day. I've had a lot of people ask how things have been since we went from not living together to spending every hour together in a matter of a few days, but we've both really enjoyed it!

What Hannah says.

Honestly keep turning to DH and saying, "Oooh, boy, am I glad it's YOU I'm stuck in here with..." (Also, he's a really good cook, and that is So. Priceless. right now.)

We're actually hoping that something good has happened... ahem. (Please keep fingers crossed.)

That's good because me and my fiance is getting married in April 30th 2022 in new york city and i want to make it feel special to her that we spend our time with each other and make it a memories when we get married

Married life is great! We just bought a new home and we were just talking about what a perfect time it was to be settling into a new house! During our shelter in place order, we are getting to spend a lot of time together, while also unpacking everything! We are coming up on 6 months of marriage and I couldn't be happier.

There's honestly no one I'd rather spend this enforced confinement with. Even when we get on each other's nerves a little, it isn't anything crazy. Like Meghan, we just moved, so we're getting the house put together. We're also working from home together. Honestly the worst part (and when we were nerviest) was when he was still having to go in to work. Once that stopped, it was smooth sailing.

We're also cooking together, which is something we've done since we were dating, and doing puzzles/watching movies/playing board games - kind of having mini "dates." It's been fun.
