But what changes? I can see how in the past, things would change drastically when you get married because couples didn't live together before marriage etc. But if you're already basically like a married couple - living together, sharing finances, owning a house, etc - what will change when you get married? I'm sure the same thing would happen to long term couples who choose not to get married, so marriage isn't the thing that stumps the sexual relationship, it's obviously just what happens when you've been with someone for a long time, grow into an adult with someone and start factoring in your life a lot of distractions like work, kids, etc. But not the actual marriage. Anyway, I don't see what is going to change between my partner and I when we get married because we pretty much already live like a married couple. Unless something drastically changed in our lives, such as our jobs or having kids or something, I don't think things will change for us anytime soon.

My best friend got married 6 months ago and I asked her the other day, "So how is married life?" to which she replied with "It's basically the same as before we were married... except now I have a different surname." Because they were already living in a defacto relationship. Obviously it's only been 6 months but I don't think the actual MARRIAGE is what affects couples, I think it's all the adult-like stuff that tends to follow marriage...

Yeah, but it will only happen to you once you start adding things into your life that are going to affect your relationship, such as starting a stressful job, struggling with finances, or having a baby. I don't have any of those things planned into the next 5 years so I think I'll be OK for the meantime. Of course as you get older you don't have as much time to dedicate towards things like having wild rampant sex every single day because you begin to take on more responsibilities. I think that's pretty normal and not just limited to married couples.

I don't want to accept my fate! :P

Your vagina changes, Kate. It grows teeth after you say "I do."

:eek: Oh my god what have I done! My poor vagina.

You also get spontaneous headaches that always tend to flare up when it's time to get busy.

And let me guess, my husband will suddenly transform into this?

Thanks for your concern, Kate!

Looking back at our beginnings nearly 8 years ago, we were at very different places sexually when we first got together. She was relatively innocent compared to myself. We both tried to adapt eachother and today, we're a lot more alike sexually than we were, so the way it develops is actually good.

And for the record, getting married didn't really change our relationship in a significant way, at least not sexually. I think we both feel a little more dedicated to us now and that's a good thing :)

That was what I figured as well :) Thanks for the input, tore!

I just read this short text, liked it and thought I would share it with you guys :)

Dear Daughter: I Hope You Have Awesome Sex
