So, is getting engaged, married, buying, and renting houses the new trend? I mean,I think those things are AWESOME but wow. I just moved into a new apartment that I think is great and a serious upgrade from where I was but everyone else is like "Why don't you just get a house?". I think one day I will have a house but right now I am just not ready for that responsibility. On the marriage thing, why? It feels like everyone around me is recently engaged or getting married soon and they're all young, I mean they are 18+ but under 25. I got married at 19 (I'm only 20 but still...) I don't know why everyone is running down the aisle so soon. Marriage is different than dating or "talking", even being engaged doesn't fully prepare you for all that will be to come. When you get married, things change, I don't know why, they just do. It's like having a roommate around day in and day out. It doesn't matter if you get into a huge fight over who's turn it is to clean the bathroom or why so and so didn't take out the trash, you can't just up and leave, move out. I guess you can technically get a divorce and go about living your life but I won't even get into that... I used to say to myself that I didn't want to be in a relationship if it didn't feel natural or like I had to work hard at it like a job. That seems pretty stupid to me now as I write this but anyways... Marriage, any type of relationship really, is work. If you want it be something that will lasts forever, then you have to work at it. You can't put forth any effort and expect it to be okay, because that is not how life works. I have decided to compose my own little list of what to expect in marriage or at least what decisions you should make before getting married. I must remind you guys that this is MY site, so if you agree then cool but if not then GO AWAY, just kidding. I welcome debate on here. I love feedback. My list is going to be posted above this post in its own separate post but it is taking up a ridiculous amount of space with this already long entry of mine. Happy readings...

About the AuthorI got the idea to create a blog in December 2014 on a random type of day.Writing has always been therapeutic; the only way I could communicate clearly, in actual words instead of struggling to unscramble the swirl of images, metaphors & analogies that is my thought process.
