“Oh my god. Married life feels 1,000 percent different than when we were dating, in the greatest way,” Mai said. “I loved our dating life because we really spent such concentrated quality time getting to know each other and making sure that we were right for each other,” she added before reiterating and expanding on just how things have evolved since they tied the knot.
Due to their Italy Wedding plans being foiled by COVID, Mai and Jeezy, tied the knot in a surprise intimate ceremony at their Atlanta home on March 27, 2021.
Mai went on to note that when it comes to their relationship, “being married, it’s even more handled with such delicacy and such thoughtfulness, because we’re in our 40s and we both grew up in households that weren’t healthy marriages. We have never seen what that looks like.”
“We want to feel trusted. We want to feel loved. We want to feel safe. We want to feel cuddles. We want to feel the romance. We want to feel dating, want to be hot and heavy with sex,” she revealed. “Like, you want all those things. Human beings want those same things. Why can’t you communicate exactly what that should look like in order to customize the relationship you have and work towards it?”
Mai’s next point was the importance of thought and planning, stressing the importance of making time for date nights.
“Today he looked at me before he took off again to another long day of work and he said, ‘Tomorrow, don’t book anything. I’ve got you.’ And I’m like, ‘Ooh,'” she said. “Immediately, I’m already thinking about what am I going to wear… I’m already planning it, as I’m here sitting in work with you.”
“Something like that from your spouse immediately sets something for you to look forward to because it shows the intention to date me, even though we live in the same home and we’re going to bed in the same room. And then it eggs me on to think, ‘Ooh, I can’t wait for my next date with him. I can’t wait to whisk him off his feet and surprise him.’”
