In 7 days, Ill be...

[Sawin]

Congratulations Dave. My wife and I got married in June 2012, so not too terribly long ago. As a newlywed, one of the things I had the hardest time with was letting my wife change how I do certain things at home... it was never an issue when she would just stay over a couple days when we were dating but once she moved in and threw away all of my sponges and put the cleaning spray and brush in the basement(!?!) instead of under the sink in the bathroom, my impromptu bathroom cleans got fewer and fewer... why would she want to make it harder on me to actually clean the bathroom?!? I still don't understand, but she just doesn't like having cleaning stuff under the sink... and completely disallows sponges (how are rags better?).

All in all, expect a few new quirks and hiccups early on, that will hopefully wind up being only little petty things that might make you grimace at the time. The quicker and easier you shrug them off or resolve them, the better it will go.

May your girlfriend and your wife never show up at the same function.

Congrats D_Integra.

Congrats D_Integra.

HA! I lol'd.

We've been dating for 5 years, living together for 2.5. I think we've found most of the quirks. Now I just get to officially say wife.

Just sign a 5 year lease. After about 5 years it starts going south and by 15 you can't get her to move out.

What happened in Vegas will now be known.

Congrats Dave... Buy more guns now!!!

She already wants 2 guns (AR and .38 special). Lol. I could buy more guns now but she'd probably try to claim them.
