/> after the wedding, he laid down the following rules:</p><p>&#8216;I&#8217;ll be home when I want, if I want and at what time<br
/> I want &#8212; and I don&#8217;t expect any hassle from you.<br
/> I expect a great dinner to be on the table unless<br
/> I tell you that I won&#8217;t be home for dinner.<br
/> I&#8217;ll  go hunting, fishing, boozing, and card-playing<br
/> when I want with my old buddies, and don&#8217;t you<br
/> give me a hard time about it.<br
/> Those are my rules.  Any comments?&#8217;</p><p>His new bride said:<br
/> &#8216;No, that&#8217;s fine with me.  Just understand that there will be sex<br
/> here at seven o&#8217;clock every night&#8230;whether you&#8217;re here or not.&#8217;</p><p>(DARN SHE&#8217;S GOOD!)</p><p> ************************************************</p><p> Marriage (Part II)</p><p> Husband and wife had a bitter quarrel on the day of their 40th wedding anniversary!</p><p> The husband yells, &#8216;When you die, I&#8217;m getting you a headstone<br
/> that reads, &#8216;Here Lies My Wife &#8212; Cold As Ever&#8217;!&#8217;</p><p> &#8216;Yeah?&#8217; she replies. &#8216;When you die, I&#8217;m getting you a headstone<br
/> that reads, &#8216;Here Lies My Husband &#8212; Stiff At Last&#8217;!&#8217;</p><p> (HE ASKED FOR IT!)</p><p>*****************************************</p><p> Marriage (Part III)</p><p> Husband (a doctor) and his wife are having a fight at the breakfast table.</p><p>Husband gets up in a rage and says, &#8216;And you are no<br
/> good in bed either,&#8217; and storms out of the house.</p><p>After some time he realizes he was nasty and<br
/> decides to make amends and rings her up.</p><p>She comes to the phone after many rings, and the irritated husband says,<br
/> &#8216;What took you so long to answer to the phone?&#8217;</p><p> She says, &#8216;I was in bed.&#8217;</p><p>&#8216;In bed this early, doing what?&#8217;</p><p>&#8216;Getting a second opinion!&#8217;</p><p> (YEP, HE HAD THAT COMING, TOO!)</p><p>*****************************************</p><p> Marriage (Part IV)</p><p>A man has six children and is very proud of his achievement.</p><p>He is so proud of himself, that he starts calling his<br
/> wife,&#8217; Mother of Six&#8217; in spite of her objections.</p><p>One night, they go to a party.<br
/> The man decides that it IS time to go home and<br
/> wants to find out if his wife is ready to leave as well.<br
/> He shouts at the top of his voice, &#8216;Shall we go home Mother of Six?&#8217;</p><p>His wife, irritated by her husband&#8217;s lack of discretion,<br
/> shouts right back, &#8216;Any time you&#8217;re ready, Father of Four.&#8217;</p><p>(RIGHT ON, LADY!)</p><p> *****************************************</p><p> THE SILENT TREATMENT</p><p>A man and his wife were having some problems at home<br
/> and were giving each other the silent treatment.</p><p>Suddenly the man realized that the next day he would need his wife<br
/> to wake him at 5:00 AM for an early morning business flight.</p><p>Not wanting to be the first to break the silence (and LOSE), he wrote on a piece<br
/> of paper,&#8217;Please wake me at 5:00 AM.&#8217;  He left it where he knew she would find it.</p><p>The next morning the man woke up, only to discover it<br
/> was 9:00 AM and he had missed his flight.</p><p>Furious, he was about to go to see why his wife hadn&#8217;t wakened him when he<br
/> noticed a piece of paper by the bed.   The paper said, &#8216;It is 5:00 AM.  Wake up.&#8217;</p><p>Men are not equipped for these kinds of contests.</p><p>*****************************************</p><p> God may have created man before woman, but there<br
/> is always a rough draft before the masterpiece.<br

He said ok, when we got there his dad asked him to stay and he decided to stay with his family. He saw how upset I was. I told him that we &#8220;might&#8221; get married tomorrow. He still didn&#8217;t come with me. He said that we will cut them out of our lives. I told him that I want him to stick up for me.<br
/> So, on the honey moon he tells me that we don&#8217;t have enough money and he starts getting cash advances on the credit cards. We didn&#8217;t take the bus very much and no taxis even though I was 6 months pregnant. Ate at sandwich stands, etc. He told me months before that we had enough money.<br
/> So we had a few bad fights on the honeymoon. I cried every morning before getting out of bed because of what his parents had done.<br
/> Then we get home and we had talked about how I was going to try and get a temp job because I would be almost seven months by then and he says, I would prefer if you didn&#8217;t work. There&#8217;s been a few complications with the pregnancy and I would only have been able to work for a couple months anyways. So, we talk about it and decide that it is ok that I don&#8217;t work. But, then he won&#8217;t give me any money. The money I had saved up from working before I quit because of the pregnancy comlications ran out and he refused to give me any money.<br
/> I asked him if he was going to make me ask him to buy anything, even bras, etc that I might need.<br
/> He said yes. He said the spending spree was over.<br
/> He said that I had been spending both of our money and that he had the figures.<br
/> He said that I needed to respect his money.<br
/> When I tried to explain to him that I couldn&#8217;t just sit in the house all day because I didn&#8217;t have money for gas or to go to lunch occasionally with friends. He said that I could go to the beach and write. That I was the most creative person he knows and that I should get creative.<br
/> Well we got in a monster fight. I felt so vulnerable. I couldn&#8217;t believe he was doing this.<br
/> I overreacted and told him I wanted a divorce, etc. and it was terrible for about two days.<br
/> Then I finally get him to agree to give me $25 a week for spending money.<br
/> But, he said that if it was up to him, he wouldn&#8217;t spend anything because he is willing to sacrifice anything for me and the baby. Total guilt trip.<br
/> So, I tried to get a job at the temp agency and most of the jobs are temp to hire. They had one job that was 3 and half months but too long since I will have delivered by then.<br
/> I am now starting to write online for extra money.<br
/> He makes 6 grand a month and I have to ask him for $5.00 to buy a bra? I have only not been working since I had to have an operation and then the wedding and honeymoon.<br
/> He said that he would put me on the account too so that I would have access to money without having to ask him for anything. He hasn;t done so yet.<br
/> I feel really scared. So, vulnerable. We are moving right after the baby is born so he can go to school and it&#8217;s only 45 mins. from his family and he hasn&#8217;t said anything to them yet.<br
/> I&#8217;m so scared that I&#8217;m at his mercy and then throwing his family into the mix and a new baby. What am I going to do?<br
/> Just want you to know that I&#8217;ve worked my entire life, have a college education and we lived together for two years before we got married. He never acted like this before. We always shared expenses.<br
/> The only reason I can&#8217;t work now is because I&#8217;m seven and half months pregnant! I had money saved up and spent it on the honeymoon because he said we had enough money. And we decided to have this baby together as a joint decision. Yes, I trusted him.</p> ]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>http://GARDEN-WEDDINGS.NET/just-married-husband-acting-different/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>5</slash:comments> </item> <item><title>Where is a beautiful location in Mexico to get married?</title><link>http://GARDEN-WEDDINGS.NET/where-is-a-beautiful-location-in-mexico-to-get-married/</link> <comments>http://GARDEN-WEDDINGS.NET/where-is-a-beautiful-location-in-mexico-to-get-married/#comments</comments> <pubDate>Sat, 28 Jan 2012 09:29:26 +0000</pubDate> <dc:creator>techdude</dc:creator> <category><![CDATA[wedding]]></category> <category><![CDATA[beautiful]]></category> <category><![CDATA[location.]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Married]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Mexico]]></category> <guid

Now all of a sudden she has changed her mind and it sounds like she is doing so out of jealousy.  I am REALLY WORRIED she is making a big decision hastily to compete with me.</p><p>Should I tell her my concerns?  If so, how?  I am afraid she will not listen and will get angry with me.  Maybe it isn&#8217;t my place to voice my concerns, and I should just be supportive.  Also I am worried she will think that I just don&#8217;t want her to be &#8220;first&#8221;.  Should I push back my own wedding so she can have a longer engagement but still be &#8220;first&#8221;?<br
/> My fiance and I don&#8217;t have a real date yet &#8212; we just got engaged a few weeks ago!  He&#8217;s letting me pick whatever date I want as long as it&#8217;s between January and May of next year.  So &#8220;pushing it back&#8221; a few months is trivially easy seeing as how we don&#8217;t have any firm plans yet.<br
/> I resent being called a spoiled brat because I&#8217;m thinking about changing my wedding day for a friend.   My fiancé and I aren&#8217;t religious and our wedding is mostly to make our family happy &#8212; we are already privately committed to each other. We&#8217;re having a BBQ in the backyard of the house we&#8217;ve lived in for several years together, so it can be whenever we want it to be&#8230;</p> ]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>http://GARDEN-WEDDINGS.NET/best-friend-getting-married-in-a-rush-to-compete-with-me/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>7</slash:comments> </item> </channel> </rss>
