1. Marriage is hard work and not for the squeamish.
2. Happily ever after is a fairy tale.
3. Till death do us part is easier said than done.
4. People change and you have to roll with it.
5. Every day won’t be perfect, some days will feel impossible.
It would have been kinder to just let us believe that Prince Charming WAS real… instead of this coughing, pooping, farting, snoring regular man. Who wants that? 🙂

Yes, and we in turn should now impart that truth to future progenitors..XO

So true. Marriage it ain’t easy. That said it’s not perfect, we have our ups and downs but I’m one of the lucky/unlucky (depending how you view it) ones that so far it’s working out or maybe it’s were too skint to get divorced, lol!

I’ve know a few “Prince Charmings” to get a shock when they learn their “Princesses” also burp, fart & snore lol.

95% of women who know that growing old, is not for wimps and growing old alone is insufferable.

Sorry. 😞 Speaking from experience, don’t place too much faith in the ideology of feminism. It WILL disappoint.

I appreciate this post. My husband and I have been married for 9 years now and the past few or more have been tough and I know it’s because I want that Hollywood movie romance that just doesn’t exist.

So very true… Even though my mom told me basically the same things, as girls we always daydream of perfection and romance, which are pretty much nonexistent in the real world. Well,16 years in, it ain’t no fairytale but we make it work. We can handle the hard times! When life gives you lemons…. Slice those suckers up and find a bottle of tequila. 😜
