Did I miss something??

Original post by 040508Bride

Every now and again I see someone post about this 'honeymoon phase'. DH and I never really felt that....is that bad??? At most we giggled for like a month when we had to start calling e/o husband and wife.....but we were both shocked at how NOTHING really felt 'different'. The day of the wedding everyone was trying to make me nervous, but i was cool as a cucumber.....i woke up feeling a little queezy kind of....like excited....but then oksana came to my house and i was chill from there......

i'm not saying i don't feel great, i do.......but we never felt like....idk...different??? did this make sense???

Also....we've been more or less living together for a while...he was from dirtaaaaaay jersaaaay and i was from LI so we slept over all the time (every week) and we moved in together 4 months b4 the wedding.

The only difference was living together. It was an adjustment....it was good...but not perfect or 'honeymoon-ish'!

yeah i agree we had our honeymoon phase on 'the honeymoon'... as soon it was back to realty. got emails from friends that lost their jobs, family drama etc. we are happy but not much has changed since we lived together.

You put it perfectly!

My dh and I have been together for 8 years...living together for 2 years....nothing has changed and that's FINE FOR ME - I'm happy for that! Still in love



same exact here. right after the ceremony at WCC we went to the bridal suite to have cocktails 'alone' (what a joke, people and the attendant were comming in every 5 damn minutes!!!) and i said to him 'do you feel any different? he said no, you. i said no' there u go.

i was also super cool as a cucumber the day of! and i was expecting waterworks the whole day. i think i just felt like damn i've waited for this long enough, its about damn time lets do it!!!

we dont feel any different. just saying husband/wife etc, thats different!!

we didnt have a HM phase either.
we lived together for almost a year and nothing really changed. people ask me now - so how is newlywed life....
i say .... the same - not in a bad way - but things didnt really change except the fact that he's my husband and i can call him my husband

the only thing that i can say now (after the wedding) is that i have less stress, and i feel more confident in us. That we will get through anything now - does that make sense?
Not that we ever fought or argued before the wedding but now i just have a peace of mind.

Dont feel bad. We didnt really have one either since we lived together too before we were married. Our HM period was when we first moved in. No biggie to us though. It doesnt mean anything!!!! Us people who lived together first just did everything the opposite way. Its usually marriage, move in and start a fam. We moved in and then got married!
