Quote: Eventually we get married...there didn't seem to be much of a honey moon period. we acted like an old married couple instead of young newlyweds.
Funny you should mention this. When my bf and I first got together four years ago-- and he was getting drunk every night back then-- he also pushed us to start acting like an old married couple right away. There was no "honeymoon" period such as I had had in every previous relationship.
Geez... there were so many red flags that I ignored. I'd say I should have had my head examined, but in fact, I WAS in therapy at the time. I didn't really level with my therapist, because I was afraid she'd try to talk me into dumping him. Sick, sick puppy.
