I never thought I would enjoy being as married as much as I do.
I really, seriously love it.
Most days, anyway. 😉
I’ve realized that marriage forces me to share a lot of things… and some things in life I love sharing, while other things in life… not so much.
For instance (because I love lists, if you haven’t noticed)…
I absolutely love sharing:
- Expenses
- Stories of our days and failures and successes
- Meals
- Household responsibilities
- Dog responsibilities
- The Husband’s food (I don’t share my own food)
- Awkward moments that no one else would understand
- Happiness
- The bed
- Pajamas (well, I like wearing his. It’d be kind of weird if he started wearing mine)
- Time
- Ridiculous dance moves
- New experiences and places
- Friends
- Runs or walks
- Money
- Books
- Love
- Laughs
- Body heat
- Chores (especially making dinner. I would include ‘taking out the garbage’ but the Husband just does that one, so I guess we don’t really share it.)
- Families
- The physical stuff… you know. Like hugs, and stuff.
And I’m not a fan of sharing:
- The remote
- My trashy-reality-tv watching time
- My food
- Body wash (he uses WAY more than he needs to, and my stuff is expensive!)
- Hot water in the shower (I used to think we’d shower together always… nope, I need my space and my hot water)
- Disappointments (meaning I don’t necessarily love sharing my disappointments with my husband, even though I know he’ll love me and support me no matter what)
- Cranky moods
- Couch space
- Closet space
- Loofahs (we were using the same one for MONTHS and I never noticed the other one was going untouched)
And some things I just wouldn’t share… like a toothbrush. I would share a razor and we share towels all of the time… but a toothbrush – no way jose.
What do you love/hate sharing?! Is there anything you’d never ever share?
Cheers!
