Eight years, eight lessons
“Hey Angela, wanna get married?”, he said. “Lemme think about it…” she replied. Eight years later, here we are. I believe that in marriage, math is different, and one plus one is always one. It’s a never ending learning adventure of becoming one.
I know it’s difficult, I know we are blessed that we found each other in this universe, I know we might be a unicorn, but also I know that we put the best of us out there to bring up the best of each other, every day.
For who is about to get married or thinking on it, here are my eight take aways:
Marriage takes, and needs two things: balls (courage) and will (desire to do things). Simple as that.
Wives, your husbands are kids pretending to be adults, they always will need a play partner. Always.
Husbands, the best sex of your life will always start when you do the dishes, laundry and clean the house.
When you get married, you know that You are not a finish product, don’t expect the same from your partner.
Expectations will kill you. Talk things, even when you think is obvious. Marrying doesn’t mean one gets to read minds.
Break cycles, whatever happened to your parents, or friends, or family does not have to happen to you. Both of you decide where your relationship would go.
Try, as much as you can, to never, never go to sleep after a fight.
Always put yourself in the shoes of your partner, try the best you can to see life through their mind. Empathy is your best weapon.
My favorite thing in life is that I’ve been found, I have a future, I am wanted and needed, there is one in this universe that is my peer in life, one that is me, mine.
Be honest with you, marriage is not for everybody, as I said, it takes balls and will, but if you choose to, it’s a hell of a ride.
Feliz aniversario my love, let’s do another forking eight years together.
