HUSBANDS, MARRIAGE AND IDIOSYNCRASIES


-->
I was so drained at the end of the day that I had a hard time sleeping. I’m truly worn out. The rain is a welcome aid to soothe my depressed soul. Yes, I love the rain. There are so many reasons why I love it. Some think that rain brings out gloom, dampness, and drabness but instead of my morale slumping i feel refreshed and energized by the rain.
I read somewhere before that says love is free but sometimes costly.
In my own opinion, it’s booth.
Sometimes just when you think you know all there is to know about your mate, just when you think you have enough to begin an annulment, something new pops up to bewilder you, for men and women belong to different species and communication between them is a science still in its infancy.
Lee and I have philosophical dialogues many times, especially about my being so “burara” and him being cluster-free person. We philosophically talk about his collection of tekky materials and my collection of drinking glasses on the computer table. No one changes the habit because changing a habit violates the entire tradition of marriage.
When you first begin sleeping with your husband, all your moves are like Anna Pavlova because the glow of being deeply in love gives delight to even the nonsexual ballet in bed.
As the years of our marriage have passed, Lee and I have grown closer in mind and heart but not in sleep. He snores and I sleep walk. I could not sleep with his chainsaw-snoring and he would go looking for me when he suddenly wakes up in the middle of the night and finding me not beside me. I don’t sleep often now. But he still snores.
We still listen to different kinds of music, country for him and RnB for me. But he has started listening to Akon as I am starting to listen to his kind of music.
There will still be a lot of philosophical dialogues as we grow old together, there might even be a time we will think of other people while being married to each other, there will still be “secret” crushes and might even have the time for falling out of love but I know like any couple, we will go through it together. Because if we will not, what is the use of staying together, Right?
