Say I was given the opportunity to go back in time, and fall madly in love with someone else, someone who is exactly like me, someone who can finish my every thought...I wouldn't do it.
Marriage is not always a bed of roses. Marriage is about finding someone who will be able to tolerate you for the rest of your life. I found my 'someone.' I always tell Derrick he is 'stuck with me.' No one else would be able to put up with my stubborn self.
When it comes down to it, marry someone funny. Marry someone that always knows a good joke. Marry someone whose laugh makes you smile. Marry someone you want your children to imitate. Marry someone with crazy stories that you won't mind hearing for the next sixty years. Marry someone that you can't stand to stay mad at. Marry someone that knows how to communicate. Marry someone who doesn't mind change. Marry someone that can handle the truth. Marry someone that you have to say 'you really shouldn't do that in public' to. Marry someone that makes you venture outside of your comfort zone. Marry someone with their own opinions. Marry someone that you can't control. Marry someone that makes you explain yourself. Marry someone that tells you the truth, even if you don't like what they have to say.
I love my husband. He drives me crazy most of the time, but I wouldn't have it any other way! (I'm sure he would say the same about me!)
