We don't know about you guys, but no one told us that marriage is not all rainbows and unicorns. Turns out, marriage is more of a roller coaster ride filled with bills, responsibilities, accountability, and all that other good stuff. Growing up, we thought marriage was all about romance, love, and honeymoons. But as we got there we realized that it's about dealing with real-life problems on a daily basis. Should we buy a fancy new car or save for a down payment? Should we adopt a dog or become digital nomads? These are the questions that shape our adult married lives. 

But hey, despite all the challenges, matrimony is a beautiful mess, especially when you have a supportive teammate by your side. But let's be real, although marriage is supposed to be an equal partnership, there's always one out of the two that's a bit more controlling… or bossy… or both. And you best believe their favorite phrase is 'I told you so' but only because they really did tell us so.
