What to wear,
what to say,
how to act?!
It was SO much unnecessary pressure.
I thought all of that nonsense would disappear once I got married. I mean, this man has seen me at my worst and had to deal with my dragon breath every morning. What could be worse than that? I mean seriously, I could light a match with how fiery my breath is, even when I floss before bed. What's up with that?
Anyway, there's this weird thing that happens when you get married called "making friends". Finding a couple that both people like is way trickier than you would imagine. At least when you're a singleton it's just about you and him (or her). Now, it's about him and him and her and her and him and her and her and him. HELLO! Talk about a rough ride sometimes. Matt and I have gone on quite a few... interesting... couple dates. Sometimes four people just don't quite mesh and there's nothing wrong with that at all, heck, if it was easy it would be called be easy-ing! Sorry, that was a lame joke. I guess what all of this madness is leading into is a few of the categories of couples I've heard about and occasionally experienced.
+ The "Inside Joke" Couple: We don't actually have any idea what you're talking about. None. At all. So, no that isn't funny to us.
+ The "We Fight in Public" Couple: I'm just going to sit over here and look at the wall...
+ The "Newlywed" Couple: Because who doesn't love to watch public fondling?
+ The "How Did You Two End Up Together" Couple: Need I say more?
And then there are those couples that you just *click* with.
You know who you are.
Love,
Cami

THANK YOU a million times for this post! making friends when you are married is hard business, and you nailed it with the couple stereotypes. i think the PDA couple might be my least favorite, right? like, should i finish my sentence if you just started kissing your husband while i was in the middle of it?? anyway, i loved every word of this. and every gif. thanks for sharing. xoxo
