Me and my husband got married 2 months ago. So far it's not what I expected and I've cried almost every day since. I'm mostly homesick.

Both conservative and Christian. We didn't live together or have sex before marriage. We've known each other 2 years and had dated for 1.

It still feels like I'm just staying over his place. Sex didn't work the first night and it really hurts.

Before the wedding, I had a job that I loved. It wasn't enough to support myself on my own. But I paid a rent I could afford to my parents. I am very close with them and our relationship is more like that of roommates and friends at this point. I am also extremely close with my sister and two brothers that live in my parents house. I also really loved the area that I lived in.

He was close with his parents, however he never lived away from them his whole life until he moved into an apartment 45 minutes away in Branson, Missouri when we started dating (whereas I lived away at college in Jefferson City). So at this point he feels ready to just see his family on major holidays and feels I should do the same. He wants us to focus on our relationship and only do things with each other (for example I brought up visiting my parents without him and he didn't like the idea). He seems to feel that being close with my family means I love him less.

So the reasons that I'm sad. It's not that I regret marrying him. I love him. I love the life we have planned. The only thing I don't love is when he tries to keep me away from my family and I resent that. I think maybe we didn't really focus enough on the logistics of what our lives would look like after the wedding. I do have a history of depression especially during big transitions.

So in the span of a week my whole life changed: -left a job I loved -moved to a tiny apartment from a big house -moved out of my parent's house -moved 45 minutes from family -moved to a completely unknown area -moved in with somebody -got married

Being an introvert and living with someone has been weird. I need a lot of alone time and that has not happened. I had roommates in college but I always had my own single room with my own space. This will change though once he goes back to work (a school counselor) and I get a job.

When I cry I am mostly lamenting the life I had. I miss my room, I miss my backyard, I miss my house, I miss my bed, I miss my privacy, I miss my parents, my sister and brothers, my job, my co-workers, my favorite lunch place, the stores I go to, waking up in the morning making coffee, driving on the roads near my house, ect.

So basically I didn't calculate how changing my entire life in a week would impact me. I had such an amazing life that I really loved and now everything is unknown, unpredictable, and changing. I love my husband but everything in my life is difficult right now. At 25 I feel I should be ready to get married so I'm wondering why it feels so difficult already.

I'm looking for advice, and if anyone can relate. Am I normal? Am I wrong? I can understand there should be an adjustment period but crying everyday doesn't seem right to me and I don't want to be a bad wife. Please let me know if anyone experienced something similar when getting married.
