lol yeah ruth. Indeed. Like suddenly a magic wand was waved and a whole different life appeared.
"Married life is so GREAT! We got married and that made us win the lottery and now we're moving to Italy and we have a pony and I like eggs and everything is made of red!"
we hate that question..here are our standard answers
him "it's pretty much the same, except she doesn't go home at night"
me "so far, so good - i haven't killed him yet!"
ughhhh. i guess i understand it though, no one else really knows what to talk about and figures it's a good ice breaker. but, it's not like i'm gonna go into detail or talk about the negative things

I think my new standard answer for it is "he likes it... I let him get me up the arse now. I'm not a fan, but hey, we're married. what can you do"
I'd love to see the reaction that would get.
It is super irritating and I normally make some smart arse remark about sunshine and butterflies and how everything tastes like ice cream. But then I think I don't want to be one of those wives....ya know, the ones who never have anything nice to say about their hubby and act like they'd rather have a poke in the eye than be married another moment. So I'm going to TRY to be a bit more sincere about it. And I'm really sick of the non-funny remarks about how being married is stupid and makes you a moron and how much better it was before....long story.
Honestly, I dig being hitched!
We just tell people that we're happy but not too much has changed. My name... our insurance. Thats about it since we lived together before though. Good enough, since it is usually just an icebreaker.
so when are you guys gonna have kids?!!
I love my hubby! Being married is great, but nothing's "changed"...
"It's the same as it was before, just with more jewellery."
I should be more creative with my responses. ;-)
Usually I just say, "It's great!". At that point they usually look at me as if I'm going to elaborate. Hmm. Maybe drunken's "up the arse" comment would be a nice follow-up comment. hehehehehe
I probably hate it more, cause like you've all stated, its pretty much the same, except we lived together and my money goes into the same bank account as his.
I should probably say, "its fine, and to answer your next thought, no, Im not pregnant and don't plan on it for awhile!"
