Some questions about marriage...

My fella and I just finally got engaged after 3.5 years... hooray! Now come the barrage of questions that I keep asking myself - I think I'm an overthinker - but I figured I'd throw my questions to the Cupid and settle my mind.

What is a relationship supposed to feel like after the "honeymoon period"?

How can I expect our relationship to evolve over the years? I realize that this is couple-specific, but still... any insight?

Is being married essentially like being with your very best friend who you have sex with? At least, is that what it ought to feel like?

And any other marriage questions you think I ought to be asking... or any advice that I ought to be getting?

i think you're getting "honeymoon period" mixed up with "honeymoon"

the "honeymoon period" is essentially the time where it's new and fresh and exciting and nothing bad ever happens because your lives are better now that you have each other.

well, you still have each other, you're still there for each other, it's still amazing and wonderful but it's not "omg super happy new person fun time" any more. you are mature and if you're getting married, yay!!!

live and be happy. discover what's it's going to be like. no one can tell you what it will be like.
