Best Advice You Received on Your Wedding/Marriage

Re: Best Advice You Received on Your Wedding/Marriage

So the first two years you give all your time to the in laws and husband? I’m not sure how difficult that might be because it’s like giving up half of the love i have for parents, siblings. So all special events even if parents invite the couple for a get together and the in laws and husband don’t want to go it’s okay for the first few years.

Although, when a marriage is consummated, i guess the wife feels a strong closeness to the husband and a woman has to cut any ties to our parents and siblings even if they are wonderful parents and family members. It seems so difficult. Why must that happen?

Where do the girl’s sweet parents fit in this…as outsiders? That’s the one concept that just freaks me out and I think would be the hardest to adjust to or understand.

I want to be able to atleast try to make a good, stable marriage work though.
