Re: What is the best part of the first few years of marriage?

You have no idea how much this post helped me (somehow). I'm getting married soon and right now my husband is still studying but we've made the decision to marry and live together. His parents have asked us not to live together yet, they have even offered me to stay with them while he studies (he's currently in a different country and will be for the next 3 years). We don't want to be apart because of all the difficulties and emotional drama that comes with "long-distance". Regardless, I am so scared to be married and off into an another country where I know no-one. I don't know where or how we'll start our home, but we don't say anything because if we do, our families will be quick to ask me to stay back. anyways, this post just got me all emotional and teary, one of the yucky things about being a girl!

This thread makes me feel better too! I had my nikkah two years ago and during that time my hubby and I struggled so much and we're still struggling. Mostly its due to the fact that we cant find appropriate jobs here in the US so we have to work outside of our fields. I mean both of us are educated but the job situation is so bad in the US, I just learned that my contract is going to end soon and so Im going to out of work in the middle of prepping for the wedding. So Im in major freak out mode trying to find another job. So I know its going to be a struggle living together but we have to make it work. But I always think that at least my hubby and I have gone thru so much stuff already that we know how to deal with certain situations like death and joblessness. so I know when our time comes we will definitely appreciate it alot more. I just hope that time comes sooner than later.

Oh and the best part of marriage Im looking for is setting up my apartment! Even though its not going to be lavish its still "our home" something we've been looking to create for a long time

Re: What is the best part of the first few years of marriage?

everything.

i can genuinely say that although we were fortunate to have been friends for years, then a couple for years, and now husband and wife for almost a year now, we have an amazing life together that we're enjoying and appreciating everyday, alhumdulilah. its the little things that matter anyway, but everything has worked out better than i would have expected. unmarried girls, you have SO much to look forward to. just take each day as a blessing from God, put things in perspective always, and if you love someone - you have to have respect for them, be selfless around them and just enjoy yourself!

No more Aunties coming up to me saying when are you going to get married? Or its about time you got married!!!
The security and relaxation of being married.
Finally having a choice of what you want in your home and not having to compromise with other family members,if you do have your own home.

Re: What is the best part of the first few years of marriage?

I’d have thought the answer to this would be fairly obvious :hehe:

Re: What is the best part of the first few years of marriage?

Re: What is the best part of the first few years of marriage?

RupayHalwa, I sooooo agree with you! Going out alone and with no-one watching or saying anything, is exactly what my fiance and I are looking forward to most InshAllah :) We can't even see each other when we want and it gets super difficult :(

Btw, Pareezay your husband and you sound like an amazing couple mashAllah! That's the cutest story ever!

Re: What is the best part of the first few years of marriage?
