...But is anybody else fighting with their husband a lot lately?
It's nothing major, we're not headed for an annulment, and I'm definitely not making my way over to TIP. We definitely have our moments of newlywed bliss, but this whole adjustment period is kind of helll. It's probably worse because we didn't live together before the wedding.
Sigh.
Re: Maybe this is just me...
We've actually been doing a lot better since the wedding. We used to fight like cats and dogs before we got married, but now we're "normal" I guess. But then again, we've lived together since practically Day 1 of our relationship so we haven't had to adjust to anything. Plus, now that we've got our new house, we have two bathrooms instead of just the one we had at our rental house so that makes me a lot less ragey in the mornings!!!
Two bathrooms are the best! Our upstairs bathroom is amazing. There's a door that closes off the bathtub and toilet area, and the sink outside is a double sink! All bathrooms should be designed exactly that way.
We argue more about how he makes plans. In a lot of ways, he's still handling his time commitments and such like a single guy-- he figures out what he wants to do, he commits to it, and then he tells me and I get to adjust around it. Or I get to blow a gasket.
He says we're going to block out some time tonight and sit down and actually address the situation. Sometimes it's nice to be married to a counselor. At least he doesn't run away from discussing things like a lot of guys do!
Beauty bark? Are you talking about mulch?
Kelly, it's not just you. We are too. A LOT. I've been pretty down about it, to be honest, but I don't really feel like airing a bunch of laundry here with all the dirty details, kwim? I know it will pass so I just keep it to myself and a handful of good close in-real-life friends. Some of it though, has made me feel a little cold towards HH right now and it sucks. I feel ya.
