Bloggerstock: The internet ate my...

Hello all.  Welcome to another Blog Swap.  This one is called Bloggerstock!  The poster that will be gracing my fabulous blog is Angela.    She is a wife, a mother of 2 kids and a busy college student with non stop homework including a lot of essays.  Angela also loves to Karaoke.  You can check out her blog here.  Without any further interruptions, I bring you our first Bloggerstock swap.  Enjoy.


When first approached with this idea, I had the perfect answer: The internet ate my...relationship. After some though I wonder if it was the internet that only nibbled and LIFE that actually ate it.

Marriage is hard! Whoever thinks that spending the remainder of your life with another person is anything but difficult has much to learn. After being married for eight years, it has only gotten mildly easier. The idea of being married is sometimes much greater than the act of marriage, and you eventually learn to ignore horrible personality traits that were once your "pet peeves". This does not account for every annoying little habit. Mine (according to my husband) is my numerous male friends that I speak to online. One of which will be posting this blog (thanks Bobby). I have had the same instant messaging screen names since the age of sixteen and haven't actually spent the time to delete some of the guys from a decade ago. So when random windows with "Hey there, Sexy" opened suddenly, the hubby didn't believe me when I said "I don't know him". Seriously, who remembers everyone you spoke to when you were sixteen? Unless you're sixteen.

Add facebook, myspace, and emails full of spam porn into the mix and you are all set for one huge marital disaster. After months of feeling guilty for having an online social-life, my husband finally realized that it was a moot point.

Yeah, most of my friends are guys, online and in real life. Yeah, sometimes I tend to be somewhat flirty, but he understands I'm still here...sometimes arguments ensue, we lose our tempers, and hurtful words fly, but all in all we got married to spend our lives together, why let the little ol' internet eat our relationship. Love is work, but it is fun, fulfilling, and something to be proud to have found.
