Post Wedding Changes

[countrygirl]

I don't know if there has been something on this or not, but I was just curious if many of you brides have experinced a change in your relationship since your wedding, good, bad, otherwise? And did it make a difference if you did or didn't live together first?

Believe it or not, Brian is more attentive since we got married. Its like he was holding back until he KNEW we were going to be together type of thing. Usually its the other way around!!
Pretty much all of the insecurities we had before have vanished too. We are married now so we dont have to worry about the exs or anything.
And sex has changed. We have always had a great sex life, but since we got married, its more sensual, more emotional......oh h3ll what am I trying to say here? The physical aspects of it are still the same, it just like it has more meaning. Does that make sense?
Now he does assume that since we are married Im going to automatically want to go and do everything he wants to do. He has even made plans for US a couple of times without discussing them with me first. We had a major talk about that.......

Yes, it makes sense.

I can't say that anything has changed in our relationship. We get along the same way. We still keep the same schedules. We do the same things. Everything is 100% exactly the same. The only thing new is we are talking about buying a bigger house next year and going to Europe next spring.

I don't think our lives have really changed much since we got married. I think it has alot to do with the fact that we have been together for 7 yrs and lived together for like 5 of those years. We have been living like we were married for some time now.

However, I think there have been some emotional changes, at least with me. I like it that I can officially say he is my husband now. And I love to hear him call me his wife :wub: I love being Mrs EECIV :D I also like the 'Wife' cards on holidays and such, but I guess I'm a sap that way ;)

Aside from that, I like it that we no longer have to explain why we have been living together for so long and are not married ;)

I like being able to call each other husband and wife too. Brian thought it was funny that I called him my "future husband" on here, so he started calling me his "future wife" in PUBLIC!!!! It was kinda cute!

As you all know I am not married yet, but since we have been engaged things have been pretty cool. Our relationship hasn't changed, but I sure like being called his fiance instead of his girlfriend. The word girlfriend was really getting old. I can't wait to be called his wife or have my title be Mrs. instead of Miss. I know I'm a dork!

The major thing is kinda like what Cindy was talking about. We lived together for a year and a half before the wedding. We are much more closer. I always felt how much he loved me but now I feel it alot more. And I can see it in him. We split up before for a year so I am thinking that he is sure now that things are for ever now. Other then that things are as they always were. And I love it.

DH and I have been married for less than a month and almost instantly we were much happier, a lot less arguments, quality time has a lot of QUALITY to it. Everything is much better, surprisingly because we have been living together for 3 years, have three kids and have done the same thing day after day since.

It like your relationship is "cemented" huh? Thats how ours is and weve been married 2 months today.

I was hoping things would get better but WOW i did not expect this!! Some say it is the honeymoon phase but nothing has eased up yet!!

I didnt expect things to change like they did either. I actually bought into the "after youre married, he will quit trying" BS. I tell Brian all the time that if I would have known he was going to be like this, I would have married him a lot sooner!!!!!!!!

Congralations, CindySue!

I wish I could say the same I guess. I feel horrible I can't. Adam is wonderful... He's so proud to call me his wife and he's real cute about the whole thig. But if you want more detail you'll have to go to my post in vest and frustrations. It's too long to repeat.

We have almost been married one year...three days shy and I would say that every day we fall deeper and deeper in love with each other!! It is the most wonderful feeling in the world. In some aspects things really didn't change, but in others, the change has been phenomenal. The sex is better, we laugh more, we cry together, we love and we live and it is truely wonderful to have my best friend here experiencing everything with me every day of my life! I could not ask for a better person to share my life with!

We have definitely grown a lot closer since we got married! It doesn't surprise me since everything happened so fast. We just feel so lucky that we found one another...
