Yep, I finally took the plunge last Friday. Funny, I don't feel that different. Or maybe it just hasn't sunk in yet. Wish the wife liked zombie movies.
It wasn't until I had my first real fight with my wife that it really sunk in for me. I mean the type of fight where you think about walking out and then realize you have no where to go and everything to lose.
Now 11 years later I still have no where to go and no one would want my old ass anyway. Haha
Congrats! I highly recommend that you continue to refer to her as "the wife". That's a sure-fire way to make her feel that she made the right decision in marrying you.
Congratulations! Those first few weeks are bizarre, merging lives, realizing you have all manner of weird habits that you never noticed when you were single, and spending innumerable hours shopping for stuff you never cared about
Reminds me of author Billy Tucci, who said when he walks into someone's house for the first time, he has two questions: where do you put your Christmas tree, and is this place zombie proof?
