Sometimes when you’re in the middle of the biggest blessing of your life, you completely miss it.👀 I thought I made a HUGE mistake marrying my husband on our wedding day... Before I saw my “perfect stranger groom” I really thought we would’ve had instant chemistry upon seeing each other..When I didn’t feel anything at all I was so scared I was making a mockery of marriage and we’d end up divorced within days.😭 Slowly as I followed the MAFS experiment I began realizing this man is exactly what I had always hoped and prayed for. 🙏 I grew up just wanting a relationship I didn’t have to be afraid of. I watched my mom hide bruises and live in fear of the men who were supposed to love her…it made me never want to get married. All of this to say, you may be going through the toughest season right now, but it may also be the biggest blessing in disguise. Also…give the nice guy a chance😜 You may not have “chemistry” at first, but open up to him and you could see it grow…it def did for me❤️ Love you hubby🫶 doughehner
