I disappeared...AGAIN

Hiiiii I’m BACK! Can’t believe its been 2 YEARS since I last wrote in my blog… I mean come on!?! What have I done since then that I didn’t write?!  I was doing LIFE. At least this time it wasn’t a 4 year hiatus! But once again I think I am ready to come back and write again... Blog will still continue to be about marriage...why? Because it's AMAZING! And as more of my friends are married or about to be married I think marriage will be a topic I am going to be exposed to a lot. Feel free to send me any ideas you might have of what you want me to cover. And I think for the next post I will be writing about attending Bachelor & Bachelorette Parties while married! Because let me tell ya I have had my fair share of them ;) Stay tuned...

Let me be a man!

Ladies... do you like to take control from time to time or all the time? Boys... ok Men....no Boys...Boys it is, So Boys do you like it when your lady takes charge? What if she takes charge all the time? Does that take away your masculinity? I do LOVE sandwiches! Don't you? :) How do you share control in a relationship, but make sure not to overstep? For those that are power hungry and like to take the bull by the horns all the time, you might have a difficult time taking a step back and letting your partner take control. Its nice to be able to take a step back from time to time and just go with the flow.  And for those that like to just go with the flow all the time, can also run into some problems. You my friend might be indecisive.  I know I'm very indecisive....when it comes to picking what I want to eat. I am very particular in what I eat....sometimes- Just ask Jaime. I am sure he will love to tell you all about it. What makes it even worse is tha

Marriage isn't for everyone...

Ugh I apologize for being MIA. I was doing so good posting at least once a week sometimes more than that. Things got a bit hectic! With starting a new job and balancing friends and family time plus being a wife and doing household tasks and trying to workout...my blog just was not a priority. But I am back and ready to share my insight on how unfortunately although this is tough to admit, marriage isn't for everyone. Not even for...  all the couples from Married at First Sight.   I am still so disappointed that NONE of the couples made it as a happily married couple. Although 2 of the 3 couples decided to stay together at the end of the 6 week decision deadline, by the time the reunion show was being filmed none of them remained married.   Shocked not so much... I feel like marriage or any type of relationship, romantic or not, is tough. There are good days and there are bad days. These couples were completely set up and had no control over their par

Friend zone!

That evil and so horrendous moment when all the work and effort you put into getting it in has failed because you my friend have officially entered the   AHHHHHH! It's bad sometimes isn't it? What is one to do when you are placed into the friend zone and you're left without any control over your relationship status with your crush? In Married At First Sight, it is oh so obvious that Jaclyn has put Ryan R. in the friend zone. But how is that possible? They're MARRIED! Well even though they've said they're "I do's" and" til death part us's," they are nowhere near being soul-mates, not yet anyway... I too have been quick to put my significant other into thee friend zone, like Jaclyn did. I actually did it with my now husband Jaime. It took me a good 2 years to release him from that deadly zone. But all things are worth waiting for, right babe?! Have you put someone in the friend zone? Why? Or better yet have you been pu

Am I supposed to be a "Mexican" wife?

So I'm Mexican American. My dad was born and raised in Mexico and made his way over to the U.S. as a young adult. My mom was born and raised in Southern California and both her parents were born and raised in Mexico. I am quite Mexican. And how does being Mexican play a part of me being a wife? My hubbie is Mexican American just like me. His family ties to Mexico almost mirror mine. How does being Mexican play a part in his hubbie duties?  In Married At First Sight , there are couples who have different religious beliefs and cultures. They were open minded and did not feel like having the same family background was essential.  This is such a beautiful thing! To begin a relationship there are many contributing factors to who your ideal type is. Race and culture sometimes play part in this. And then you add in your family's wishes on who they want this person to be and what family background they want them to have and you get a whole lot more to deal with t

I feel like I've known you FOREVER.

I feel this immense connection with him. I have to have known him from somewhere. But how we barely met a couple hours ago. But we have so much in common. He makes me laugh. He tells me I understand him. Wow did we just say the same thing at the same time?  Weird! Those are the words that so many of the participants in Married At First Sight gushed about to the cameras in last week's episode. Were those feelings sincere or were they just caught in the moment?  Can you truly feel like you've know someone for an eternity within days or hours or even minutes of actually meeting that person?  I feel like that is true to a certain extent, but then again I think that feeling of being caught in the moment is often intertwined with the feeling of knowing someone for an eternity which leads to feeling that immense connection. I think some people get caught up and just because they grew up watching the same cartoon they instantly feel like, "wow, they're the one it&#

Sex vs. Love

Do you prefer sex? Or making love? Or better yet baby making love? Is there really a difference between sex and making love? If so what is it? Ok don't answer that...Stop with your gross details! But seriously. What are the rules nowadays about when is the "right time" to have this type of intimacy with a partner. I would think that by the time you marry your partner both parties should be more than ready to engage in sexual activity the night of. But... What if you just got married to a stranger. You're now husband and wife, so should you consummate the marriage the first night?  In Married At FIrst Sight , 2 out of the 3 couples felt that instant physical chemistry the second they saw each other. Both Davina & Sean and Jessica & Ryan D. knew the specialists had done the job right matching their physical preferences when they saw each other.  There was no doubt the physical attraction was there. Even with the physical attraction being there h
