When you're married, life is funny. And married people texts, in particular, are something else. They embody the love couples have for each other through sarcasm, wit, and humor.

The bond between a husband and wife is something that is unbreakable. We all want that special relationship with someone. We yearn for a soulmate to grow old and experience life with.

Having someone to laugh with, cry with, and experience life with is something many spend their entire lives looking for. It's that unconditional love us humans are wired to search for.

Some people may think it's boring when your relationship reaches a certain point where you're so comfortable with each other that conversations take on a whole different vibe.

But I beg to differ. Because in marriage, there is always something interesting.

Sometimes, when I am stressed, tired, irritated, or struggling, I like to take a moment and read through some of the messages my husband and I send to each other, especially when we have either had a fight or he is getting on my last nerve.

When I read my texts with my husband, I see a love story. A weird, funny, way too comfortable love story, but a love story all the same.

It reminds me how much we love each other and are grateful for the relationship we have where we can be open, honest (sometimes brutally honest), and sarcastic without the fear of hurting each other's feelings.

Taking a look at our best texts through the years we have been together really brings us closer. It's like a reset for us as a couple. We reminisce and remember why we are together in the first place.

This is how we put everything that we may go through on a day-to-day basis behind us and focus on the whole of our relationship.

But I'll tell you what, I wouldn't trade it for the world.

Just remember that you are with your partner for a reason. You love them, so remind yourself when things get tough that your love is stronger than anything else. Every day you are together isn't enough. So, enjoy each moment you have together.

And if you are with that special someone, I am sure you have your own fair share of text messages that are hilarious and that sum up your marriage.
