My First Post

About me...

I am Trevor Cosby. I am 23 years old and Married to Justine Cosby who is currently pregnant with our first child. I have been married for a little over 3 years now (wipes sweat off of brow). I work as a MRI tech at a local imaging facility and as a lead at In-n-out Burger. I am starting this blog because I an tired of watching TV at the moment and needed something to do while my little brain always has to have something to work on. So TADA!!! a blog. I always heard about blogs, but have read maybe 2 or 3 of them and it never dawned on me to write my own until now. I have always thought of myself as a lucky man and blessed with a wonderful relationship between my wife and I. I have also noticed that a lot of people around me like to ask for advise in relationships or hardships they might be going through at the time.

So I decided my blog would be about my relationship and the daily things my wife and I do to deal with what arises. When asked about what makes my marriage works, my reply is simple and straightforward. Communication, this is the single most important aspect of my relationship. We talk to each other and speak are mind. When we first started dating we made a pact to never and I mean never walk away from each other if we are arguing. I don't care what anyone says walking away to "cool down" is the biggest mistake you can make. I am proud to say in the 4+ years of my relationship I nor my wife have ever walked away during an argument. Walking away from a situation that falls into the category of "argument" is saying to me that you don't care and would rather be somewhere else then trying to solve the problem at hand. A while back I remember reading an article on the web (maybe it was one of those few blogs), on the difference between the ways men and women communicate. Men are very short, to the point, and apathetic, where as women are very emotionally drawn into communication. Hence the clash in communication practices by nature. This statement does not at all mean that all men hate talking about things and listening to women's drawn out versions of the story but rather in general that's how it goes. I myself am guilty of kind of tuning out my wife and it is something I try to work on daily.
