Yes, you read that right! There are no disagreements during the honeymoon phase. Be it choosing the dinner menu, which side of the bed you get to sleep on, the cancellation of plans or anything else- what the other person says is what you want as well. After the honeymoon phase is over, agreeing to disagree is perhaps the first thing you agree about.
But, you do not even realise it. In fact, TV is the least wanted thing in life during your honeymoon. Soon after the honeymoon phase is over, life becomes impossible without TV. And then, constant battle over the remote control becomes an integral part of your daily life.
Your man does not check out other women during this phase. He is still too busy 'exploring' you. Eventually, eyes may or may not wander here and there, from time to time.

Your love for each other is still pure. Other people’s interference and expectations, or even your own doubts about each other have not yet tarnished it. You only see the good in each other. You dream of perhaps an unrealistic future with them, because reality is still at bay.
From their sweaty smell to croaky voice, you absolutely love everything about them. You will, in fact, even dig your face in their pillow and think nothing smells so intoxicating. After this phase is over, you can make an endless list of things about them that annoys you.
During this time, the only thing that seems important in your life is your significant other. You do not play games, spend time on Facebook, or even call your friends or family too often. Afterwards, everything else starts taking over your life, and it is no longer only about you two.
Your spouse is the most admired person in your life all through the honeymoon phase. Afterwards, the more you grow familiar, you start teasing and mocking each other a bit too much.
There are still issues you have not opened up about with each other until now. You might shriek when you see a pimple in the morning, but you will never talk about having a stomach bug or acidity in front of them. Because, that is just too gross to talk about during your honeymoon phase!
