How did you feel when you read the title, “What’s it like to be married to me? No doubt some people would feel pretty confident thinking they are doing great, while others may feel a deep sense of failure. For sure, it’s a deep searching question and being honest with yourself will be very uncomfortable. It’s so much easier to look at our spouse and see what they need to change isn’t it?!
But by closely examining ourselves, we will learn a lot by seeing ourselves through the eyes of our spouse. In other words, a wife would ask herself, “what does it feel like to be my husband?” Or husbands ask themselves “What does it feel like to be my wife?”
Who is this book for? Anyone who is married!
Although this book was written by a woman mainly to wives, it is certainly equally applicable for men to read and ask themselves the very same questions Dillow raises. After all, we are in this relationship together and it can be the most satisfying when both partners are working on the marriage.
My Prayer For Your Marriage
I got married at a young age; It’s been 51 years now and we have had our challenges!
How helpful it would have been to learn, understand and practice the principles in our marriage that Dillow wrote about in her book.
Consider the challenging question she asks: “What’s it like to be married to me?
I pray that you, the reader, find hope and restoration for your marriage if you are struggling!
I would love to pray for anyone who would like to leave a request.
May God give you the courage to pursue your marriage and find the satisfaction and joy it is meant to have.

I love to research and write about how we can live in peace, with patience, passion and purpose in our relationships. The most important relationship being with Jesus who died to provide forgiveness of sin for all who will come to Him.
