Only for girlfriends and fiancees? Not wives?
EDIT:... duh... that's in a different section. |

Hey drofxford--
I think that at this point, clearly, the forums are still the wild, wild west -- (and by "wild" I mean barren and uninhabited, right before the gold rush) so it's probably safe to post in whichever you please. As the conversations grow we'll go from there.
Thanks again for joining. |

I'm getting married next May but I'm having doubts. I'm getting the feeling that I'm making a HUGE mistake. I feel better w/o her. I feel like she cornering me in. I need some advice. |

Before anyone can give you any real solid advice, you need to figure out what is causing you to feel like she is "cornering you in." Also, you need to figure out why you feel better without her around.
Has there been something that happened to either you or her since the engagement that caused either of you to change?
If this is all wedding stress, then as they said in Moonstruck, "snap out of it." If it's the old Wedding Crashers "one pussy for the rest of my life" syndrome, then get over yourself.
However, if there is some issues that were brushed over or not addressed or just bubbled to the surface since the engagement, you need to assess what is causing it and why this stress is coming now.

How much of the stress involved is with wedding ceremony planning? The only fights I've had with my fiance that were really seismic have been about wedding stuff (not marriage stuff), and family stuff. We have locked horns about the families we are marrying in to and about stuff that I perceive as stupid with wedding planning.
Are you and your fiance going to do marriage counseling before the wedding? I know some places require it. We had a couple eye-opening meetings with the pastor that's doing our wedding and it really helped us open up communication lines that weren't there before. |

Dude, both me and my girl have had second thoughts, and third, and fourth and tenth, but we both know we're going to get married. The majority of our fights stem from either the wedding itself (barbairic tradition, if you ask me), the fact that we're both in school still, or the fact that we're both broke. But don't confuse temporary stress with life-altering mistakes. |

I feel you buddy... I'm in the same boat. My fiance wasn't like this before we got engaged... but suddenly its like shes a new person. always nagging, yelling at me, trying to be controlling, I start to enjoy time away from her. I'm just hoping she chills out after the wedding. Good luck. |

Thats rough man, and its easy to say that everyone has doubts at somepoint..but its true and normal. Im no expert, but there's also a reason this thread has so many views. There's a book I just got that I'd recommend to every groom-to-be that they read. Its really a easy read, written by a man from a man's perspective on all things engagement/wedding. Maybe it's been suggested already, I'm new around here. Its called The Groom's Instruction Manual "How to survive and possibly even enjoy the most bewildering ceremony known to man" by Shandon Fowler. There is an entire topic on the difference between your "Fiancee" and "The Woman You Love".. eye opening..other topics also hit the nail on the head! Check it out! |
