New Wife Intro

Ok so now a little background info...

I met my husband about 3 and a half years ago on campus in university. We had a class together and he was a part of a large group of us that studied together since I was one of the few in the class that didn't mind sharing my class notes with students who spoke English as a second language. I met many other muslims during university and I eventually converted to Islam about 10 months later alhamdulillah.

He went back home a few days after I converted to Islam but apparently continued to hear good things about me from people in the masjid. A few months ago he approached me about getting hitched and I said yes, yay!! I kind of had a big crush on him before (lol) and mashaAllah he was a good practicing brother.

Alhamdulillah we got married about 2 months ago and things are going well, but I realized that there were a looooooot of things that I didn't know about marriage. Like how to look pretty at home (since I pretty much gave up on "primping" when I was in high school, especially after I converted to Islam), how took cook good food (not just desserts lol), all of the purity rules involved in Islam once you get married, and a bunch of other stuff.

Oh and my husband is Arab, I'm American, so there will probably be some cultural stuff coming up here too. And also his parents don't know yet that we got married... so please make du3a for our situation. They do not approve of mix-culture marriages, but he prayed and felt that I was the one he was supposed to marry.

Please help me learn and inshaAllah I will post what I learn here!
