Someone asked me last week does marriage feel different. My first reaction or initial feeling was NO. It does not feel any different than before really. From the start I knew this woman was going to be my wife. There was never a question in my mind. Every little bump we’ve had has never been a testing of “will we work out” but more like “how will we work this out”. There are few things that I trust in 100% and us together is definitely at the top of that short list. So marriage does not change that feeling really…It confirms it.
However I did tell this person that I have a favorite part…My wife is now rightfully and legally the end and start of my every day. I feel honored to share my life, my space and my everything with her. That little piece of paper only solidified her place in my life to the outside world sorta speak. She was more than my girlfriend from the beginning. She outgrew that title within a day. She is my friend, my lover and my partner in life.
I never believed in all that crap before. Yes, I was the ultimate love hater. I could pick apart the most perfect specimen within two weeks. I could spot a flaw before it presented itself and already have a plan to attack it. But her flaws make me love her more. That’s how I knew.
So being attached…? It ain’t bad. Shit who am I fooling? It is amazing.
(Just thought I’d share…I’ve put so much negative shit out there about love. Time for some balance.)
