If you know , the Keeping up with the Kardashian and if you follow the episode, Sometimes it has nothing to do with our lives ( the big house, high end life style ) but yet, there are some thing that we as human being have in common.
I watched the episode where Kris ( the mom ) and Bruce ( dad/step dad of the Kardashian) getting into much arguments and they felt like they can't do something fun together anymore. Kris is much more out going, free spirited , cool mom , that still like to go to pub with her girls. While Bruce is the typical stay at home man, the complete opposite from Kris.
So what do we have in common? I think this is the most common problem most of marriage couples are facing. While dating or pre marriage suppose to be " fun" "romantic" " poetic" ....etc you name it! But then do all of these need to be wash away or neglected when we got married?
Where is the fun? Where is the romantic? and poetic? ( oh dont make me threw up , please!)
Do we change after married? really?....
I must admit, there are times that my husband really get on my nerves!!! And while some of us can take a break by going back to our parents house, well that is not an option for me. So from the starting, when we faced problems , or heavy arguments , we still need to be in the same place or room ( except of course while he is working)
There is one conversation between Kris and Bruce that really made me laugh, because I am soooo related to that. Kris said that the PR company will send a limo and a driver for them to go to the club ( part of Kim K's promo ) so Bruce refused to go , he prefer to be at home and then said, why they must send a limo? He wanted to drive there ( I think he feels safer if he drives so that he can" run"when he wants too) So Kris answered : so what? let them pick us. Petrol is expensive now. Then Bruce said : oh yeah ? So Petrol is expensive huh? But so does the earrings that you wear ,honey! That is expensive! HAHAH... how classic !! I often "trapped" in this situation with my dh , which I normally named " the salah cakap" situation .
So they both trying to meet in the middle of the circumstance and tried to find some activities that they still can enjoy together ( without the kids)
I totally agree for this, a couple time, an adult time. We often neglected that as marriage couple, as parents. Our activities are evolve around the children, Which I also agree , but... being married and being parents doesn't mean we must be those boring couple. Those couple who just run from errands to errands and bills to bills. We need to step up and we must think we also deserve to have some fun too.
It is ok to keep our kids with our parents on the weekend for a few hours, or with other trusted relatives/ friends, or here in most of the case, almost everyone have maid or nanny. While those who are abroad can hire baby sitter . Remember happy couple makes happy parents and happy parents make a happier children too!
I am not a night person ( night as in 2-3 am ) nor a clubbing type of gal ( I never was, you can say I am the boring type of girl). Not saying that I don't like a clubbing woman or mom. But it is just not me, I am more into a nice wine and dine, a good music in the lounge , movies , sunset dinner or anything like that. Dancing on the bar top and loud music and a lot of booze? hmm not so much..
Though I must admit, I curfew-ed my self. Mostly up to 11- midnight at the most! Because I feel guilty to think that my maid is all alone to take care of my girls even though they are a sleep but knowing my maid she won't sleep until I come home.I keep telling her to sleep near the kids room ( since her room is separate from our house) , but she just can't sleep well until I come home. So that's why I don't like to go out late.
Me and my husband like to have a quiet dinner once a week just two of us, or go to movies. Just to catch up. So most of the time the day will be for family and evening for us. Once in a while we go to have a drink and catch late dinner during weekdays if his schedule permits.
I love to get the chance to dress up and put on make up, do my hair, wear my heels and just to be "pretty". Imagine if my dh must see me every day in the morning with pyjama and very casual clothes and then when he is arrive at late night after work , I am back to pyjama again. So when he got the chance to see me pretty?
But of course if you look at us, you can tell that we ARE married ( for 10 years!! >_<) It is SO obvious. If we were at the cinema, we can certainly tell those the " still on dating" type and " the just married " type and " the oh so married type". We don't hold hands any more, some times only, and those lover seats in the cinema? It was a nightmare for married couple or should I say for us? LOL at least My dh hates it! He said to me : "We are married , ok? We have all of our time together at home in our room, those people who take lover seats are still dating and got no other chance to be so near!" hahaha... which is true but relax!!! The other thing that distinguish us from the "dating" couple is when I asked " so who is that guy? where is the bad guy? what she's doing there?" . Dating couple will explain "oh honey , that guy is ........" If us? huh my dh will say " you watch movie but still can't understand it? you still can't figure out the story is it?"

Anyway......I think it is important to keep being couple, as well as it is to be parents.
So what is your common interest as a couple with your husband and wife?
