Call this, the ADVERSE “effects” of after-I-Do’s if you want to…
What marriage is doing to you, is that it’s, turning you, into this, this monster I’d never seen before, or maybe, you’d, suppressed your true self, so I’d, fall in love with you, and agreed, to become your SLAVE, who knows???
What marriage is doing to you, to us, is NOTHING good I tell ya! Marriage puts a lot of strains on this love we used to know, used to share with each other, but, because we got married, we’re now, bombarded with the demands, of living together, AS a married couple, we can NO longer flirt with anybody else, without one another getting jealous or angry, nor can we stay out into the wee hours of the night, and not come home, or, kiss someone else, other than each other either!
doing separate things, living separate lives.
What marriage is doing to you, to us, is that marriage took away, ALL the love I had (already in the PAST tense???) felt toward you, and now, I feel, nothing BUT this strong sense of DISGUST, animosity, and resentment toward you, and that isn’t how love’s supposed to be at all.
What marriage is doing to you, to us, it’s ruining what we used to have, we used to be so good together, but the moment we said our “I do’s”, well, things started headed southbound………
What marriage is doing to you, to us, is that it’d made us hold these never-in-existence expectancies that we should’ve NEVER had held in the first place, and, because we now expected that each other behaves like we’re married, and because neither one of us is able to, live up to one another’s expectations, we’re left, disappointed by this love we used to know, this marriage that we come to, share.
not my caricature.
