Thirteen Reasons Marriage Rocks
I’m in a bit of a goofy mood, so bear with me. Oh, and this goes for a good, healthy marriage. (Or, you might argue, an idealistic one. Hehe.)
1. It’s a bit easier to get free sex. (Yeah, let’s get this one taken care of.) You don’t even have to leave the house.
2. Cuddles and snuggles and all that fun stuff.
3. Having someone to talk to and share things with.
4. Having someone you can shower love on. (I love having someone I can show love and devotion to as much as I want.)
5. Having someone who will be there for you through the tough times.
6. Massages. Mmmm.
7. ‘Just because’ presents and surprises.
8. Another mind and set of hands to help you through different projects. And someone whom you can help.
9. Having someone there to celebrate good times with you and be proud of your accomplishments.
10. Loving and being loved.
11. Healthy competition.
12. This is said to be a bad thing, but I think it can be good: Getting comfortable. Being with someone who knows what you look like naked, knows at least some of what you like, knows your bad habits, and loves you just the same.
13. Because if your relationship is healthy, you’ll move out of the rosy glow stage, the honeymoon stage, and on to the deep, lasting love stage, and that’s a wonderful feeling.
