A whole year of being husband and wife. A lot of people have asked if it's changed anything and in most ways it hasn't at all. We'd been together for over six years before tying the knot last summer and had lived together for about four of those so there wasn't a big chance on that front. In the past it was different where you only moved in together once you were legally married. I think as a couple, before getting married there are house rules to be made. Roles to be filled. Ben and I very rarely argue about anything house related now because we both know our rules after living together for a while. And as such we knew that we'd be a good match for staying together long term. Sure, I still get annoyed when he doesn't take his shoes off at the door after I've spent the morning cleaning but what's the point of getting annoyed with each other over shoes? Life, and relationships are worth so much more than that. We both have our roles, both have our positives and negatives and you have to weigh these up to get a balance. Ben doesn't have to think about any kind of cleaning, or cutting the grass, making sure the bins go out on time, making sure there is food in the house {he eats a lot, all of the time}. I also do nearly all of the cooking, take him lunch most days and he never has to think about buying birthday cards or presents or wrapping amongst other things. That's my side of the domestic deal. But equally he does just as much, he doesn't make me go out to work for a start, I'm able to work freelance which I love. I never have to open and deal with boring post like bills or find the best energy deal, sort my taxes or any kind of DIY stuff. That's his part of the deal and our balance and it works. We're team Sterling, we support each other.
