Marriage

Last week we talked about Marriage.  I thought it was really really interesting especially since I just got married not to long ago.  We talked about adjusting to marriage at the beginning.  Brother Williams gave the example of getting used to sleeping in the same bed with somebody else.  I could really relate to him.  I really like the room to be SUPER cold and my wife liked it to be pretty warm.  Now I think I have converted her to the cold side but it is funny how many things you run into that you just didnt think would ever become a problem.  Something that really has been a challenge for us is that my wife is doesn't know how to take a break and I like to relax at the end of the day.  That is just differences in our personalities.  It is a constant battle of trying to figure out the best way to go about doing things.  I really liked this weeks lessons and learning more about marriage

Preparing for Marriage

I have enjoyed this week a lot.  Me and Malorie just got married...well 7 months ago today!  It was a long road preparing for marriage.  We knew each other for 7 years before we got married....it took me a long time to convince her I was the right one.  I liked seeing some of the similarities and differences other people had to go thru.  Some things I had never even thought of.  Also there are alot of potential challenges that you really don't see before marriage....even though you think you do.  Its good to discuss some of those challenges and we did that in class.  Just differences that people have.  It has been a bit of a struggle because before you get married you don't fight a lot if at all.  But a lot of time you will have dissagreements in marriage and it is not a bad thing...even though it seems really bad at the time.
