Since being married, have you found out anything new about DH that you never knew before?
When we got our apartment and I purchased new pillows and stuff, I made sure I got rid of his old, flat, yucky pillows. He came home and saw that they were replaced and FLIPPED out. I definitely marked that down as one lesson learned.
1) Don't change his pillows unless you ask first, and even then he will probably say he doesn't want new pillows haha
I think so far this is all I have, but I am sure as time goes on I will get yelled at for more and add to this list lol

I've learned that I cannot have everything my way AND men just think differently than women!

Re: Learn anything new?
I've learned that DH is definitely picky about some of his foods. He won't eat white rice at all unless there is some kind of meat w/ a sauce to put OVER it. He will ONLY eat Sabrett brand hot dogs. He doesn't eat mac 'n' cheese at all. I always thought he ate pretty much anything! News to me!
I am sure there are more things but thats the main one for now!

Re: Learn anything new?
DH has to be one of the easiest people ever to live with. He's just very mellow and hardly picky about anything.
I'm trying to think of what i've 'learned' tho, I'm sure there's a lot. Like how he's always got to have a 'project'. First it was his huge fish tank, then it was his truck. I'm kind of the same way too.
I also learned that he's impossible sometimes. lol. Like for instance, I've been trying to get him to drink more water. Healthwise, you're supposed to be drinking 64 oz every day. I probably drink even more than that, but dh barely has any. So I've been trying to start him off slow and just make sure he has at least 16 oz between when he gets home from work and bedtime. I always have to remind him to finish the water bottle (and most times I gotta put some crystal light in it just so that it tastes better) lol

Re: Learn anything new?
i guess the only thing that i really learned was how he fights... i mean, of course before you live together, you argue... but the arguments are soooo different when you are living together ya know?
i also learned to bite my tongue and let certain things roll off my back - AND to pick and choose your battles!!

We lived together for 2 1/2 years before we got married so I really didn't learn anything I didn't know about him before.

I learned that I cant change him. Not that I want to change HIM but now that we live together I like certain things done a certain way. What I did learn was that I can TRAIN HIM

I lived with DH for 6 years before we were married - we started living together about 6 months after we started dating - so I really can say the same - there is probably NOTHING I don't know about his living habits!

Definitely. We were living together at a part of the relationship when it was still NEW ... so even things he did that I didn't like didn't bother me so much because I was still so in love, you know?
Honestly, he doesn't do too much that bothers me around the house. He doesn't always put his dirty clothes in the hamper, which annoys me, and he leaves his shoes in the living room all the time - sometimes I will pick up 4 pairs of shoes and bring them into the bedroom ... and he never, ever changes the TP when it's finished - he will use the new roll for DAYS and leave it on the sink counter rather than just replace the roll - but those are small things (compared to him never doing laundry .... )!

Re: Learn anything new?
I've learned so much. I learned that marriage is much 'harder' work than everyone tells you. I learned to think before I speak, and choose my battles. I also learned DH is a freak about missing socks. At least once a week a sock goes missing and he will spend hours to find it.
