Real Love
Created | Updated Jun 11, 2002
Everyone has this theory that love is easy, it isnt!
When I met my husband the first weeks were fantastic but the truth is that everyone has irritating little habits, different opinions and believe me the worst part- different tastes!
Over the 5 years I have been married it has shocked me that at times I have actually found myself disliking my husband on some occasions, I never believed it was supposed to be like that and it took a long time to realise that this didnt mean our relationship was over, purely that we are 2 different people who live together 7 days a week and sometimes get on one anothers nerves!
I think that before you actually get married someone should warn you that living with another person no matter how you feel is NOT all hearts and roses and that the only path to true love is communication and compromise, my feelings for my husband now are much stronger than when we first married, I respect him, like him and I feel that we have added variety and opened one anothers minds to things that we may have shut off to before because we thought we might not like it.
I can now honestly claim after 5 years to love my husband. It is no easy ride though!
