So I have a friend who is getting married, and she is freaking out a bit. I am not sure why, since my relationship hasn't changed that much pre/post-marriage. Has yours? If so, how?

Re: Change
Our relationship didnt change at all. We had been together 5 years before getting married, and alreayd had a house and a child so getting married for us was just the next step and our wedding was more a celebration that we hadnt killed each other yet.
I do definitely think that now that we are married (it will be 3 years married in Oct but 8 years together) we are defnitely more committed to making it work. Our relationship has had a lot of ups and downs (as does everyones) and I think before it would have been easy for either one of us to just walk away.
Any changes in our relationship after getting married have been positive. We were together almost 6 years by the time we got married and have been together almost 10 years now.
I feel like I'm a cliche b/c I am just so incredibly happy in our marriage. I mean of course we have our issues, but there isn't anything that we haven't been able to work through. And I think that since getting married (and pregnant), we have only gotten closer and our marriage has gotten stronger.
I feel like we have gotten a lot closer since getting married. We of course have had our ups and downs like any relationship has, but our relationship is so much stronger now. After getting married we really felt like a family unit. It is amazing how relationships evolve and change.
