Lessons from marriage

Things I have learnt about marriage:

1) Changing your name does not mean you are no longer part of your own family and have instead become assimilated into your spouse’s family like being assimilated into the Borg collective.

2) Any implied comparison between your in-laws and the Borg collective is unlikely to improve your relationship with them and may offend your spouse.

3) Marriage requires give and take. Some days you will feel like you are doing all the giving and will be afflicted with amnesia regarding any times when you have taken. Your spouse will remind you of them.
