How long did it take you to feel like a Mrs.?

Last weekend we went fishing on the boat with some of his buddies and he was talking and said something like My wife, and I sort of looked around like who me? LOL

It's 4 more months until our 1 year anniversary and I dont feel any different. Is there like a different feeling?

People tell me things will change when we get married but what? I still haven't seen it. Things area still the same he is Jacob and I am Rosalyn...

I want opinions from those who have been married for a while. Do things really change? and what?

thanks lol

I haven't been married for very long-almost 3 months, but this February will be our 10-year anniversary. But honestly, I don't feel any different. I will hear him call me his wife and it still sounds weird to me. But that's it! Everything else is the same. I don't mind, though, I didn't want anything to change!

We lived together and sort of felt married for several years before we actually got married, so the only thing that changed for us is that it was official.

I felt sort of an emotional change in that I liked to actually be able to call him my husband and he called me his wife; after 3 years I still like it :wub:

But our everyday lives haven't really changed.

If you live together before you get married I would say that things don't really change much at all.

But I am happy and proud being a wife to my wonderful husband and I am glad we made it official :grinhappy:

Somedays I do, but not really. We've been married almost 4 months and it still feels the same as it always has. Except now when we do our goodnight prayer, I say "thank you god for another day with my husband" instead of boyfriend and he'll say wife. But I wake up feeling like Amber, and go to bed feeling like Amber, so maybe it takes some time.

I don't really think we change so much; we are still the same people we always were and always will be. But now we share our lives with someone else.

I know I think of my husband and of his feelings when I do things. I think of him when I think of our future; every day the emotional bond grows.

When he is gone I miss him like I always did before, but now it is more than just missing time with my boyfriend ;)

I guess it is tiny subtle emotional changes over time and it is hard to define or explain. But you are bound to change when you share your life with another person. You are no longer one person, you are a couple :wub:

It really doesn't feel that different! Sometimes i'll mess up and call him my fiancee or boyfriend still LOL.. Or when he jokes around and says my full name, sometimes he'll use the last name! I'll ask him who that is. HEHE. Then again, we lived together two years before..

While I can't say I feel like a "Mrs.", I can say that after 7 1/2 years of marriage, there are times I'm still in "awe" as it were...that I'm married to the woman that I am...that I am "married" at all. I personally don't ever want to take that for granted. That feeling keeps our marriage fresh I think. Though there are other times when it feels like it's "always been this way." I'd agree that it's a subtle change/shift in feeling. Words can't necessarily totally explain such an emotional/spiritual connection that you have with your DH or DW.

What a nice thing to say!

I still feel weird, hopefully it will come in time. :) I have to force myself to say "husband" still.

I haven't changed my name yet cuz I didn't order my marriage cert till last week. So far, I'm still "Ms. Woodman". I'm kinda leary of changing my name only because I'll completely be "Mrs. Harris".... right along with his EX WIFE :urgh:

So, yes, I feel married, but not like a MRS yet *sigh*
