I think marriage is just "like that" sometimes. Communication is HARD! Even for me and my husband, and we're both super talkative and love talking.....and when we got married we were like, ah, this will be a breeze for us. LOL......wrong!

But the cool thing about marriage is how you can forgive and bounce back, and be even stronger than before.

Does it help at all? At least with him understanding how annoying it would be to you?

Toodles I am glad that you made up and things are going smoothly, You will be married one year May 7th, well you two are still in the love mode stage and getting to know you.. I will be married 25 yrs on May 23, and Janet.. what stage am I in..lol

You crack me up girlfriend, I love the part you mentioned about how you want him to sleep on couch, like Mandy said I cracked up when I read that..:yelrotflmao: :yelrotflmao: Girls what can I say my husband sucks in communication, he is a quiet person and I am the opposite so most times I feel like I am speaking to myself.. lol they say opposites attract I don't think that is true, you should both be on the same planet...

He did send me a msg asking if I could have lunch with him. I just smiled when I got that. But unfortunately, I was 1.5 hours away from him and couldn't get back any time soon. So I asked for a rain check and he said OK. so...we will make it up tomorrow. The rest of the day was kinda quiet but when I got home, I saw he was online and asked when he would be home and what he would like for dinner. This made his day because he is the one that usually cooks in the house. I told him I intended on going to the grocery store and would be picking up a few things for dinner and asked what he preferred..chicken or beef. So...he was excited to get home to a cooked meal

He got home and I could tell he still had a headache. he had indicated earlier that he didn't feel good. So he went and laid down in the bedroom. I went in and laid with him, kissed his forehead and asked if I could get him anything. He said he just got all he needed

so we laid there for a minute until i had to get up to check on dinner. Well, after dinner, we laid back down and just talked about nothing. it was very nice. i laid my head on his chest and suddenly we were back to when we were dating. We both commented on how nice it was.

so we realized at that moment, that one of the things we are lacking most is affection. We work very closely together with our companies involved with each other so our relationship has turned very "business-like". We realized tonight that we really need to put the passion back into our marriage. even if all it means is that we lay on the couch together and make jokes. Holding hands while walking through the grocery store.

When we first got married, we used to have this game we would play. We had each day of the week put on a slip of paper. We put them all into a bowl. Each week, we would both draw a day out of the bowl. We would keep it secret. Well,. whatever day we drew, we did something special for the other person on that day. it was so fun. it got kinda hard after a while cuz we ran out of ideas we would start repeating ourselves over and over again. But it was fun. it was exciting. We need to do stuff like that again.

Our 1 year anniversary is May 7. I am hoping that on that day, we can look at each other and say that this is only a second in time for us compared to the long life we have ahead of us. I think we just need to do things to keep it alive.

look at the sticky note that he left on my computer a few months ago...

Let's make sure that before today is over we take one step closer to being stronger together until we last forever.
Love
-JIM-

yeah, he is a doll. ;)

I'm SO glad things are looking up. The pain in your heart when things aren't going well just sucks! Glad things are better!!! What a sweet note!

Janet 05-04-2007 01:22 PM

Glad everything is better toodles!! When it's (relationship or anything) worth something to you, it's worth working it out no matter what.
