Marriage is the union of a lifetime and though before getting into the nuptial knot, bride and the groom are often showered with so many advice on how to lead a happy married life (and how to get along with each other without any fuss around). But any of that advice is hardly going to help you in reality. You will only get the idea to deal with it only after getting hitched and when you actually start living the reality. We have mentioned below some of those truths, so that the unmarried ones can be a little cautious before taking the death-defying decision and the married ones can just relate and agree.
1. Every coin has two sides- This one is true for almost everything in life. You have the good side to it and then you have the not so good side as well. Same goes with your life partner/spouse. After you get married, there are going to be days when you will consider yourself as the luckiest person because you have that particular one as your spouse. You will find even the most annoying habit of theirs very cute and you would just not stop bragging in front of your friends and relatives about him/her. But there will be days when you’ll think if you were drunk when you made the decision to marry this person. Yes, this happens to everyone, even if you are madly in love with each other.

2. You will have serious doubts- Doubts are not just a pre- wedding thing because a fair share of doubts is reserved for post wedding days as well. The situation will come around in your married world when you are seriously going to doubt your decision-making ability. Even worse, you may doubt that if you really want to spend your entire life with this psychotic, irritating, blood sucking person.

3. Television- According to me if you want to lead a happy married life then you should not have a television at your home. Television is the reason for a lot of fights. The biggest decision to be made is which channel should be watched and trust me you cannot reach a conclusion with this one without arguing and fighting.

4. Thing you just can’t help with- Placing wet towel on the bed, throwing socks in two different parts of the house, eating from directly the serving bowls, etc. maybe you were not aware of these quirks earlier and is doesn’t matter how much you hate all this now that you are married you have to deal with it. So it is better to accept them instead of correcting your better half for the thousandth time.

5. No, you can’t do everything together- Yes, you are life partners and are going to share your life, but not certainly all your interests and hobbies. It stupid to imagine that your spouse is going to join the salsa or yoga classes with you.

6. Girl, you are not just a wife- When a couple gets married, the man becomes a husband. On the other hand, the woman becomes a wife, a daughter in law, may be a mother, a cook, a caretaker, etc. so just keep that in mind that even though you are getting married to one man you are agreeing to take up all these roles and the responsibilities that come with them.

7. Sometimes you have to sleep on your problems- It is said that you must resolve all the issues before going to bed. But this comes phrase comes with the exception of marriage because no matter how hard you try there will be days when you will go to bed with anger and doubts. But sleeping on your issues is sometimes good for your relationship as you get enough time to understand your feelings and getting your head around the whole situation. Not every time you need to react at that very moment.

8. No, you are not going to have sex every night- It may sound good, but then it is not realistic. A lot of unmarried couples may think that the married couples have sex on a daily basis which is not that true. It might be possible in the initial few days of marriage but definitely not something that can be sustained in the long run. After getting up early in the morning, working like an ass in the office for the whole day and having arguments with your partner over the lamest reasons, you don’t really have the energy left for some hard-core bedroom activity. I mean not every day, for sure.
