To those who call marriage “just a piece of paper”, I found that I DID feel completely different after the vows. My husband and I had a routine that we followed while we were dating, which included saying goodnight and going to our respective homes. We did this for 3 years. Since our wedding was small and quickly put together, we didn’t have our own place yet, and we didn’t have a honeymoon past one night at a hotel. The first night after that I was all set to temporarily follow our old routine, but when the time came to go our different ways, I broke down and cried. It felt like losing an arm or something. He felt the same way. It WAS different.
