Love, and Transitions
They got married and lived happily ever after…
It’s not that simple! When you get married, there are a lot
of adjustments you have to make. Here are a few that I can up with, based on my
own experiences.
- Personal space, you are now with your husband always! Its so great, but living with a guy is a lot different that with 5 roommates.
- Sharring a bed, I have always had my own bed, and my own covers to snuggle under. When you get married you have to learn how to share the covers!

- Budgeting- money and time. As full time student’s money is pretty tight, learning to budget is going to be so important! Its also important to budget your time. I try to get home work done as quickly as possible so that Spencer and I can spend some time together. It’s harder than I thought it would be!
- Turning towards each other- It’s important that you learn to turn to your husband FIRST when something is not going right. Not your old roommate, your best friend or parent. It establishes trust and an opportunity for greater love between you and your spouse.
- In-Laws; You have to learn to love your in-laws to establish a good relationship. Trying to decide who’s parents to visit for a holiday can be tricky.
How do you adjust to these different transitions?
Compromise
You will have to learn to put your spouses needs/wants
before your own, and your spouse will do the same!
What do you
think are some transitions that have to be made in marriage? How can you learn
to accommodate your spouse?
