We are not married. We were planning on getting married. But we wanted to purchase our home before we got married.
You are correct in that she is a detached individual.When she had some alone time, all she wanted to do was sit and watch TV. Basically, if our son was not demanding attention, she resorted to watching to TV to relax. Also, she would hardly ever call her friends from back home to talk. Basically, I was the only person she spoke to on a consistent basis. I did feel some pressure to maintain a positive relationship since I was the person she was closest to.
Our relationship had its ups and downs. Overall, I think our relationship was good. We had our disagreements and fun moments. Even our friends thought we had a good relationship since we treated each other well.
You are right, there were times when I did not communicate. But, I think that was more of my way of mirroring her way of communicating with me. Instead of bringing things to my attention, she would bottle them up. Looking back, that was not the proper manner in which I should have handled the situation.
When we first met, of course it was peaches and cream. We enjoyed each others company and we both felt like we had a lot in common. We both are huge sports fans and we love to travel. Plus, she explained to me that she did not plan on having any children. After a year or so, she said she wanted to be the mother of my children. She even had girl names picked out since she was sure that our first born was going to be a girl. She even wanted to become a stay at home mom. So, she supported me in my quest to improve my career. Luckily, I did not have to work long hours to achieve that goal, so it worked out quite well for us.
Amy,
Are there any questions that you would like to ask about our relationship? I know you have some specific questions you would like to ask about her.
