If someone told us on our wedding day that one year later we would not be at some exotic holiday but curled up on the sofa, watching a movie and passing the pizza, that too happily, we would have called them crazy. We know better now and have compiled a list for you too to learn and be prepared for.

The worst year: We'll start with busting the biggest fairytale myth. The first year isn't all champagne and roses, rather it will be the hardest thing your marriage lives through. You have the highest number of arguments, tear marathons and 'why did I marry him' thoughts in the first year than any other.

The pleasantries: Remember how when you first met he wouldn't even blow his nose with you sitting there? Well, say goodbye to those pleasantries the moment those seven pheras are done with. He'll let the gas rip like nobody's business and won't even bother pretending that it was unintentional.

It's not about love: Whoever told you that marriage is all about love was lying. A happy marriage is a lifelong exercise in patience, acceptance and avoiding in-law visits.

He lies for no reason: You found an empty crisp packet in the bin and went to ask him if he ate it (or the maid did)? He'll lie. We advise you to stop figuring out why he lies. Even we don't know the answer to this one.

You will get the brush off: Remember how all those women's articles talked about you giving the brush off to your spouse's s*xual advance? Well, they forgot to mention that at times you might also get the brush off because 'he is not in the mood' and 'no he is not having an affair.'
