Sweet & sour

About a month ago I moved in with my husband to our first home in Hawaii! I left my family in California and started a new chapter here with the love of my life 😻

I was so nervous to leave my home town but I’m so glad I did. I left a lot behind when I got on that plane. We’d never lived together, so naturally we didn’t know what to expect, we thought it’d be all butterflies & rainbows but that wasn’t the case. He’s at work all day and when he gets home he went straight to the computer. After a couple days I felt really sad because I didn’t see him all day and I would count down the hours till I could see him... I started hanging out with some of the wives from his unit and got pretty close to them. One of them told me he had been taking ‘supplements’ that I had no idea about. Long story short I confronted him about the pills and he made me feel so stupid, saying they’re just supplements and they’re legal. 🙄

I have severe anxiety so one night I went to go get my medication from the cabinet and he gave me shit about it and I brought up the supplements (which I regret 100%) we got into the most heated argument I’d ever been in with him. For the next week we argued and argued.

I told him I would leave to go back home if things didn’t change I told him I wanted more attention and to not talk about my medication because he knows how insecure I am about it..

Things have been so much better since I got everything off my shoulders & he got everything off his. I never want to give up on our marriage, I’m willing to do anything.

We started hanging out every night when he gets home, we watch movies and make dinner together. Fall asleep next to each other while we scratch each other’s back and laugh at instagram posts😂

Then one day we decided to get a puppy, we picked her up and I feel like she’s our saving grace and cherry on top to bringing us together again. I thank God everyday for the struggles because without them I wouldnt know what we can get through as a team. I love this man with my entire being
