We finally married, June 2008.
Sex was weird. Enjoyable, but weird.
After being told not to do it for all our life.. and being turned down from d_lited all those years lol….and now we are allowed to do it…. Just took some getting used to. For both of us.
We definitely found a groove.
We ended up having babies right away, and practically the first 10 years of our marriage was dedicated to babies and pregnancies and breastfeeding and mom/dad life only. Our life revolved around parenting and we never had a life outside of our home.
As Christians, you don’t party, you don’t go out, you do family things and conservative things… or so we thought. Lol (our mindset has changed so much for the better since back then)
I was happy and fullfilled, my marriage was great, my life as a mom was great, but me as a woman….
Was suffering.
I didn’t even know I was suffering because I hid behind mommy status for so many years thinking and believing I was only a mom.
I’ve learned that I am a woman first, then a wife, then a mom. But finding who I was took a while for me.
Anyway….. life was fun but also “boring”. Sex life slowed down so much due to various reasons. I felt ugly with the weight gain, I felt my hormones all over the place with multiple pregnancies and breastfeeding, I was all over the place.
Trapped.
I wasn’t myself. I thought I was. But I wasn’t. I was being a good woman and a good wife and a good mom, serving God, being kind, doing the right things…. But dead on the inside.
I have always desired to live freely and go with the flow and be who I want to be but that freedom was trapped inside a little box because I thought she had to be there.
I wanted to dress how I wanted to, and wear the bikinis, and not feel ashamed. I liked flirting with guys and feeling wanted… but all those things were viewed as “wrong”. So I didn’t do that and stayed a respectful wife.
