It is quite different ever since you get married. It really is.
Every morning you wake up to someone who puts her arm around you and asks you to go brush before you kiss.
That someone would want her cheesy line for the day, before she gives you your compliment.
She would pick your clothes for the day; while all you need to do is just carry it well on you.
Your breakfast table will have the food you like, the way you like it or will it?
She would look for you in a gathering, just to make sure your dress and hair are perfectly the way they should be.
You know she would be the first person to like what you post on Facebook, and so you should be.
She would ask, "How do I look?" a hundred times every day; You know what the answer is and should be; you just have to make sure you sound convincing enough.
She'd play poker and count on the chips you have if she loses.
You better let her choose the restaurant we should go to, because she definitely knows more on this than you ever would.
Make sure she calls for your order, or you would end up eating the usual Veg Soft Noodles with Cauliflower Manchurian.
She would be the one to make you Pasta, because that is the only thing she knows to.
Always remember her coffee making skills are getting better slowly but surely.
Take her to the movie she wants, or she would go anyways.
You would start liking to shop, because shopping is fun with her around and at least, you wouldn't look like a 80's-movie hero with bell-bottom pants and long-collared shirts anymore.
You shouldn't pack your bag if you plan to travel, or she would repack it with all that you missed.
You should remember she likes you flirting with her, even when she is 80.
And boy, tough luck if you choose to gossip without her, because she loves gossiping with you.
She'd be the first to see a problem that surfaces; and talk you to go about cracking it.
She'd argue her lungs out that she is right; you just need to see it that she indeed is.
Of course, you would have your way; unless she melts you down with her eyes.
Always remember being a husband is always easy, because she always loves you.
At the end of the day, you know you are in a happy marriage, when you long to finish work and get home; and when you are motivated to work harder the next morning!
To Alamu,
I thought this would be nice way to bottle up the memories of the honeymoon phase in our marriage.
Cheers,
Viggy!
