Last week, my husband and I celebrated our third anniversary — 1,095 days of wedded bliss. Well, we probably got on each other's nerves a couple of those days. But mostly it's been bliss.
But because I've been married for three whole years now, I'm pretty much an expert, right? Obviously.
So for those of you who haven't yet taken the plunge into matrimony, I'm here to share with you exactly what you need to know before you put a ring on it. And I don't mean the normal, boring advice.
When you know, you know, marry your best friend, love, respect, communication, trust, blah blah blah.
All of those things are important, sure, but any old self-help book can tell you that. So I'm offering the insight all the other "Dear Abby" hacks forget to mention. Let's dive in.
Sex doesn't stop when you get married.
Nay, sex stops when you have kids.
There's an old, tired trope that once you get married, you're doomed to a prudish life of no orgasms or rare monthly two-minute missionaries. And I'm here to tell you that's simply not true. It's a lie perpetuated by unhappy people projecting their misery onto the masses and by sitcom writers who are out of ideas.
Don't let those people scare you.
I'd argue that not only does sex happen just as frequently after "I do," it also gets better. The longer you're together, the better you know each other's bodies, likes, dislikes, what makes each other tick. More time together means more places to visit, more hotel rooms to christen, more opportunities to try new things, the list goes on.
