Getting married comes with benefits! This post made me smile. Husbands are best friends, loyal companions, and the admirers that you will never choose to live without!
All of those benefits almost make me want to tie the knot myself especially the “Two heads are better than one, especially when you’re coming up with excuses for staying home from work, getting out of a prior obligation, etc.” part. Nice read!
Wonderful list! Great reminder for brides-to-be to look forward to these things. I personally love #5 and #21!
Hahahah this cracked me up. Totally true! 😀 Just sent it to my husband 😀
Hahahahah very good: )
Bahahahahahahahahaha number 13 is the biggest lie I’ve ever heard lol that’s just a lie everyone tells because otherwise if people knew the truth they would never get married lol
I concur wholeheartedly. Getting married is moronic. And probably the biggest mistake of my life. Truth is marriage is hard. Even a failed marriage takes hard work to keep your spouse from killing you. I haven’t the foggiest clue why anyone would do this willingly and why gays want this misery too
You are clearly married to the wrong person. I agree with ever point to the benefits
Unless he’s in the military.
This is an extremely idealistic list.
Most of these are already true for my boyfriend of 5 years and me. We don’t live together (and won’t until we are married), but a lot of these would be true for unmarried couples living together. And by the way I am my own spider killer.
I’ve been married for 5 years (together for 8yrs) and none of these are true for me except 11, 17, and 18. Life is not a fairy tale just bcs you get married, sorry to be a Debbie Downer.
I already have all this after 4-years living together and im not married
I will have been married 15 years in August and these are still true.
Most of these are true already for me (except I kill my own bugs, I’m my own handy-man, etc.) and I’m a young adult and have been in the same relationship for only 2 years. Find someone who meets these expectations before you marry them. Cute list!
I love all of these reasons and there are so many more. Your marriage is what you make of it and some people would rather focus on the negative and that is fine. I love my husband (of almost 8 years) and he really is my best friend, my tag team partner with the kids, my number one fan and my hero. This was a wonderful read.
It seems a little sexist that the men are automatically assumed to be the ones to kill spiders & fix things around the house, implying that women are incapable of doing these things.
I think your thinking is sexist. It only implies that if you have a sexist mind. An open mind takes it for what it is!
Try to have an open mind!
That’s kind of what I was thinking too. It was a cute list but awfully… dated.
Assuming your husband will walk in on YOU at the end of the day since you’ve spent your day, what? At home doing dishes?
I’m the one who’ll kill spider but those are cute lists for married couple indeed.
I don’t think these are over-done at all. I think it’s very possible because I have all these things after 2 years. The people saying that this list is unrealistic just aren’t lucky enough to have fallen in love with the perfect man. 🙂 <3 cheers!
I’ve been married five years with two kids and this doesn’t even start to explain the benefits of being married. Every marriage is different but this isnt just a fairytail idea. This is for sure possible.
I’ve been married ten years and have four kids and these are all true for me…except number four, and it’s only because I tell him I don’t want anything, we have more important things to spend our money on. Most of the time I still feel like a newly wed.:D <3 Love my man! It is VERY possible to have this kind of relationship with your husband.
I don’t think this list is unrealistic at all! The ones who are saying that it is, have not had the chance to meet their one true love! My man meets all of those listed and some! He’s my true Prince Charming 🙂
This list is not far fetched at all. My “perfect” husband and I have been married for 21 yrs. I say perfect becaue he is to me. He might not do a few things on this list, but he does more than what is on the list.
As a feminist, I find this post hilarious and adorable! I think everyone needs to chill a bit and laugh at the funny for a moment 🙂 Nice list, haha!
love it 🙂 hope will get married soon <3
This was so sweet I wish I would have done it 8 years ago and then again now to see what would have changed. That new bride feeling is gone and we’re comfortable now, with 3 small kids… it would have been a fun tradition to start!
I like this list but had to laugh. At my sister’s house SHE is the spider killer. My husband is so not handy! He can fix a car though! His mom contributed tous almost never speaking to each other again. It is a good list though. He does taste all of my cooking experiments and always tells me I look beautiful even when I dont! 🙂
Ahww all of these are so true, except #13… Well he’s gained a family who loves him. Unfortunately, I gained his super disfunctional family, but the silver lining is that having me in his life has helped him view his family relationships in a healthier way. And it’s made us learn to really appreciate the love and support we receive from my family. Something that may have otherwise gone somewhat unnoticed. Cute post.

thanks for these points. hopefully i get pass through my first date
Well being married with a family certainly gives you a lot of advantages when being single and alone all the time has so many disadvantages. And it can be very unhealthy and depressing as well.
