Your Wife Isn’t Just a Roommate
You Didn’t Marry Her Just To Split Chores
In the film Before Sunset, one of the characters describes his marriage as feeling like running a daycare with a good friend.
If you’re married with kids, you probably get it.
Sometimes it feels like you’re just managing chaos together … school runs, bills, a house that’s always a mess.
It’s easy to fall into that routine.
But remember, your wife isn’t just a roommate or co-manager of the madness.
Marriages have their ups and downs, and sometimes it feels like you’re just keeping things afloat.
But if that’s all it is, hit pause for a moment.
You didn’t marry her just to split chores or co-parent.
Even in the thick of it, remember to treat her like more than just a roommate.
Love up on her. Surprise her. Take her out.
Regularly remind yourself why you chose her to do life together.
