Maybe this is just me...

...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 fought more since we got married than we did before (we also didn't live together before) but nothing major. We just fight over little stuff, like last week we were fighting over what kind of dog to get but after 5-10 minutes of arguing we were fine again =]

  • 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!!!

  • Hang in there! I know that its an adjustment. I am not experiencing this that you are talking about but I didn't just move in with my guy. Remember one thing that is really important though and that is someone you love and adore. When you start to snap back think before you do if it is a battle you want to have. You are gonna go through a hard time. Hugs hang in there! You have all of us to lean on as well!
  • 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!

  • that IS cool Kelly! Lucky you! Lots of guys don't know how to TALK haha. We have been fighting a bit lately, but mostly because Brandon's kinda depressed, and REALLY bored since he's been unemployed for a year. School doesn't start til the end of september, so he has to find something to keep him busy til then!! Yet somehow when I suggest things to do, like hang up picture frames or lay down the leftover beauty bark in the garden... he doesn't do it!  Boys.

    Beauty bark? Are you talking about mulch?

  • lol yes. We found out that Washington is the ONLY place that calls it beauty bark. if you would say mulch I would think you meant like dirt or something hahah

  • Haha I've never heard it called beauty bark before, its mulch in WV

  • I'd just chalk it up to adjusting to living together. We went through that, but we've lived together almost 2 years now, and I think we have fewer arguments now. Hang in there, it gets better :)
  • HH and I have been fighting more as well but as pp said it's probably because we also didn't live together before getting married. It's frustrating because we are supposed to be living "happily every after" :)

  • *raises hand* some days I'll like to beat him with a wooden spoon. We fight over silly stuff and its usually resolvded quicklybut there is more bickering going on. Oh and I feel like I'm not getting enough of you know what. I'm a woman with needs....

    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.
