Happy 8 years to you both and MANY MANY more to come!!! That is so exciting to celebrate! Wow this was such a great read and I appreciate you sharing a lot of what you struggled through and victored through at the same time.
I’ve been married for 11 years now now and our biggest struggle at the beginning was communication. What helped us was a communication activity called “confession session” that I will someday write about. I too was an emotional blackmailer and was good at it!! I definitely got into this marriage blindsided thinking I knew so much...boy does reality hit you!!!
I like how you said you both have grown together, that’s the beauty of marriage. We stick out the hard times and learn and grow together, supporting each other along the way. Thanks for the book recommendations! Also congratulations on the cutie vote which was well deserved for this article!! 😃😉💓
P.S. You were such a Beautiful bride~ 😍
Isn't it so weird how when you're dating you think you've got the greatest communication ever, and then after you're married you find out that's not necessarily the case? I had no idea what an accomplished emotional blackmailer I was, so I giggled when you said you were good at it :))) Makes me feel better that I wasn't the only one, haha!
Thank you so much!!! <3
Yes it’s so weird! A lot of truth and reality hits you when you actually get married.
Lol!! You were definitely not the only one!!! 😅
