Hubby and I have always been a bit of a homebody! It doesn't take much to amuse me, I've actually found that I am more bored when the power is on then when it's out! lol! My husband has remarked about this when the power has gone out, I can sit a whole day just thinking or reading, whereas he's squirmy and needs to do something other then just sit!
Well I know it must be hard for you to adjust, you go from partying, to not, and kind of at a fast pace it seems. Well I hope you and your husband can go out and have fun atleast once in awhile, it's not good to always be cooped up!

Hubby and I don't have children yet either, we're waiting until we have our own place before we do. Now if one comes along, of course that's fine! lol! Well In any case, hopefully you can stop being bored and enjoy being at home. It's a big adjustment when you go from doing as you please to not, hubby and I got married recently but have lived together for two years.

I can understand how you feel. I know that marriage is another word for adjustment. Even I had to adjust a lot after marriage. But it is better to adjust and manage than to give up on your marriage. There were times when even I felt that I shouldn't have got married. But as time passed everything became easier. Your husband also needs time to adjust to you. But most of the adjustment has to be done by the wife alone. That is how it is everywhere. Don't worry. Just find somthing to do and get yourself busy instead of thinking about the little day-to-day problems. Marriage isn't a bed of roses but we have to avoid being pricked by the thorns.

I've been in your shoes before. It's really boring if you don't make yourself busy. You need to do something productive. It's really a big adjustment on your part. But life is different now. You're married so you have to consider your husband in everything that you do. Try to work or do something that will make you busy at the same time you are earning for your future.

Hello! To enter marriage life is another way of life i think. When you decide to that way of life, you should ready for everything will happened. But I believe that all things can be solve through a heartily communication. For me i really made an adjustment because I'm a loner person, I want to be alone in shopping, in bed, traveling, it was my fun to be alone. But when i got married all things in my life were adjusted. I thank my husband because he really understand me about that, he gave me space, but as the days go by with my husband, I'm now use to it. But sometimes, it seems that i missed all of my past. What i do is that I will go to the mall alone after office hour, i watch movie and even eating outside alone. Then after i do that, i call my husband that I'm here in this place, please pick me here!

ah well yah entering marriage changes everything, its good that ur husband understands u, it one way of accepting u,for who you are in your past life, but i think we should also learn to be sensitive enough with the feeling of our partner, like in your situation its hard for his part that u don't want to go with him even in watching movies,hmm maybe we wanted us be alone but were married and i think in everything that we do our husband needs to be part of it..hmm but its up to your communication how you deal with that kind of situation,,,unlike mine i don't think he will allow me to watch movies all by myself even in going out with friends that he don't like,,hehheh

The hardest thing to do after getting married is to think for two. Now, I can't make decisions for myself. I have to consider my wife's opinion too.. and that's where some of the disagreements start.

yes, its a new chapter of ur lives, we need to think some ideas that both of you will agree..disagreements is really normal to husband and wife relationship especially if its new,more adjustments but the important in their is both of you will be happy and enjoy being together,,In my situation, even in going out with friends i need to ask permission first if he dont agree, well cnt do anything about it, thats one thing that will change in ur life, like think the opinion of your partner..marrying is accepting everything and being ready for adjustment,in the end ul be happy if its him taht u really wanted and love.ryt?

Hello Hlgracey,
Im sorry you arent partying anymore. Dont see why you have to stop now that you're married?? Is there any reason why you and your husband dont go out anymore?
I didnt stop having fun once I got married. Marriage can be just as much fun since you now have a partner in crime lol.
So tell your husband you want to go out and have fun and drag him with you.
Good luck !!!

I really want to, but sometimes he kept on telling me that going out is just a waste of money, and all i can see are all the same..same places,same faces..He wanted me to change, i must learn to stop going out with my old friends that is connected with my past relationships,though its hard but i'm trying to accept it.I chose this life and its for me to adjust..Sooner or later I'll be immune to that..Thanks

I am from India and here family relationships are very strong.Marriage and marriage life is some thing special here.I feel comfortable and safe after the wedding.I feel really comfortable with the shared life I had with my wife.I tried to minimize changes in our daily habits.We still carry on to be who we are and continue to do what we do.Now we can understand each other very well and running our life very smoothly.When we share,we become closer too.
