A wife now, and how’s life?
Tuesday, July 17th, 2007So now, I’m stepping into my third week of being wife. And a generally asked question would be, how’s life now or either way, what’s the difference from the moment being a bachelorette?
Personally for me, nothing much has changed. Why?
1. We are still away from each other – there’s just no “under one roof” yet.
2. Everytime we meet during the weekend, we are still staying with our parents. So, I haven’t done my fulltime wife thingy such as cooking, washing the clothes (although machine is operating it most of the times), or ironing his working attire.
3. I still address him as “sayang”. By the way, is it necessary for us to shift our calling to “abang” as we’ve got married? Hell, no!
4. I still do my shopping alone. I have no groceries shopping obviously. Apparent;y, I reckon it will hardly happen in this kind of distant relationship.
5. We don’t have any planning to set up our own house. We are not heading to any furniture store to get any equipment for our house. No house, so why need to care about all the equipments, right?
6. We text and call each other as usual. The mushy and corny messages are still all over. It’s healthy, isn’t it?
So, I guess not much difference is going on as I’m a wife, except for a legal and blessed relationship instead. I feel more comfortable now, more secured and definitely more responsibled. I guess all the responsibilities of a husband and wife will totally come in action once we’ve moved independently without any supervision from our parents and I really hope that time is sooner than I’ve expected. It seems impossible but with help from God, no one can deny it.
