Hi everyone, Sophie Grant here. I’ve been reading through this thread and noticed how often marriage gets discussed in extremes, either idealized or dismissed completely. From my writing and research, most of the truth sits in the middle. Marriage changes daily routines, money decisions, emotional habits, and even how people handle stress. I write about these practical shifts in more detail on benefits of marriage, focusing less on romance and more on what actually happens after commitment. Curious how others here experienced those everyday changes, good or bad.
