I'm Mrs. Oh My Gosh That Brittny's Shameless

If Something Changes, I’ll Let You Know

Will and I had “The Talk” yesterday.

“The Talk” is one of those conversations most of you had soon after getting married. In fact, I’d venture to say that 99% of couples had The Talk soon after marriage.

Only weirdos wait five years to have The Talk.

Yes- five whole years. Did you know people have gone to college, graduated, and been in the workforce for a whole year in this amount of time?

Yet we never had The Talk.

...

I’m talking about The Talk like you know exactly what I’m talking about.

Sorry.

Sometimes I think I’ve told you things before I actually have.

The Talk.

About kids.

And when.

And how many.

The Talk.

Will and I were discussing our house, the future, etc. and I felt the need to have The Talk.

It’s not like I felt we needed to have it after five years of marriage, I don’t think not having The Talk is bad- it’s all about the dynamics of your relationship- I just thought I’d throw it out there and get a feel for things.

So I did.

And I was surprised by the answer.

I won’t tell you what all was said, but it was a really good, deep, thorough discussion. I felt good having it.We had The Talk and at the end Will simply looked at me and said, “And if something changes in the way we feel, we’ll let each other know.”

I agreed.

It took us five years to have The Talk and establish “The Plan (ha ha- yeah because God never changes those, right?),” but I think it was perfect timing.

I gave Will a hug and went about getting ready for the day.

So I’m not going to spill the contents here. I’ll simply say the same thing Will did- if something changes, I’ll let you know- and you me well enough to know that I will!

Have a good Monday. I hope you’re off and enjoying it for those that have to work- like me.

Oh, THAT talk.  Hope you are both content with the decision that you made and are more relaxed now that the talk has been had.

Ooh, the Talk! It sounds like you’re both happy with the decision that was made.

haha Yeah, we haven’t really had “the talk” either, and it will probably not happen until well after 5 years of marriage.  Its going to take us that long just for both of us to be out of school!  smile So, we are way weirder than you guys!!  I’m glad it went well.  It seems like it would be a scary talk.....  :-| hahaha

You know, we’ve never really had The Talk either.  It’s more of a “hypothetically speaking"...."one day” kinda thing.  But never really The Talk.

I’m fairly certain I’ll just pee on a stick one day and then order myself a gigantic plate of sweet potato fries and that’ll be that.

Haha.

I’m so glad that you and Will finally had The Talk, and it sounds like it went really well and you two are on the same page, or at least ok with how one another feels on the subject.  That’s great!  We didn’t have The Talk right away, either.  But sooner than our 5 year anniversary (seeing as how we’re not even at 4 years yet!).

DUDE!

Come on, you have to tell me more.  Are you trying?  What are you doing?  Anything?  EGADS BRIT!  YOU KNOW THIS IS MY WEAKNESS EITHER WAY!

I’m glad The Talk was good.  Was it the baby sooners book that broke you?  Or made you steely against?  I MUST KNOW!

I think you just like playing with my emotions.

Thanks for torturing us with NO DETAILS!!  grin

We had the talk before we got married.  Needless to say, we ‘revisited’ the talk about a year after the I Do’s… Glad to hear you guys are having good and open conversation about it.  That is so healthy.  And since you are both on the same page, when whatever happens, happens, you will both be ready.

brittny I'm B-Love. I've just returned to America after spending three years in Kuwait with my husband Mr. B-Love and our two maltese, Boz and Lucy. We recently added two more doggies to our family, Rocky and Teddy. I love weight training, OU football, and lazy weekends. Buckle up and get ready for my constant embarrassing moments, continual madness at a new job, and my daily effort to rely on Christ while adjusting to life back in the real world.
