EASIER! not that I thought it'd be difficult but after hearing 'first year is the hardest...' I was VERY pleasantly surprised by just how awesome it is to be married.

agreed...but there have been so many things for us to deal with that I thought we would handle differently or thought we wouldn't have to deal with at all.....but we are getting through it together!

Re: did you think your first year of marriage was easier or harder then you expected

So far so good. We lived together before so it's not that different for us but we have had our share of adjustments and we're doing well through them.

Re: did you think your first year of marriage was easier or harder then you expected

The first 6-8 months were a little harder than expected. But since then, it's been smooth sailing! Our second year was definitely easier.

you have to be willing to listen and communicate alot. Also be able to know each other differences.

Re: did you think your first year of marriage was easier or harder then you expected

harder. but we both had a lot of issues shortly after we came back from our honeymoon. not horrible issues, but we didn't have a tv for a month...not terrible, but we didn't have money either, so we read a lot, but we were constantly around each other. then we both got new jobs that just took EVERYTHING out of us and our jobs realllllly got in between us for a month or two. but we have been really working with each other and that helps so much!

Re: did you think your first year of marriage was easier or harder then you expected

Easier... I kept waiting for that adjustment/fighting period to happen and it never did. It felt like we had lived together forever...

Re: did you think your first year of marriage was easier or harder then you expected

I didn't expect it to be 'hard' ... we'd already lived together for a while, so it's really exactly the same.

Re: did you think your first year of marriage was easier or harder then you expected

Easier, since we lived together for two years before we got married. So we already had that period of adjustment.
