I met my husband at church. We went steady for about two and a half years, and tied the knot in church. I made up my mind to marry him because he was always there for me. That showed me how he really felt. I sometimes lack patience and I flip-flop a lot. But my husband is anchored, in terms of his personal relationships and social life. That sincere attitude convinced me I could count on him. More than anything, being with my now-husband put me at ease. Thankfully, his parents always respected and welcomed me, and gave us the go-ahead to get married.
I am proud of the way we dealt with obstacles as a couple during seven years of marriage. I pray that we will create an even more beautiful family in the years to come.
- Did you know they were going steady? / I'm not ready to go steady with anyone.
- I realized after I grew up that my parents were always there for me. / I thought he would always be there for me.
- Do you think they will give me the go-ahead? / We'll begin as soon as he give us the go-ahead.
1: Do you often get into arguments with your husband?
2: Of course. We fight all the time.
1: Same here.
2: Still, my husband always reaches out first after an argument.
1: Wow, that's very big of him.
2: So even if we do fight, it doesn't drag on.
