She’s In The Middle Of Planning For Her Wedding, But She’s Butting Heads With Her Fiancé So Much Over It That It’s Killed Any Excitement That She Had

A woman’s fiancé proposed to her a bit more than 3 months ago, and they have been dating for 12 years.

She’s very proud of everything she has accomplished with her fiancé during their relationship, like graduating college, establishing good careers, and even purchasing a house together that they both really adore.

They’re not planning on having children, but they are planning on having a wedding soon that’s going to be more on the smaller side.

She and her fiancé have discussed their wedding ideas prior to getting engaged, and she always thought that they were both on the same page about getting married at city hall, then having a party right afterward.

“Now that we’re actually planning the celebration, we’ve been disagreeing on so many things that I don’t even find this fun anymore and I just don’t care,” she admitted.

One of the biggest issues with their wedding planning process now is that her fiancé no longer wants to have any of their family members come with them to city hall.

Her fiancé thinks it’s fine for them to just go alone, but she’s not alright with this because she has 3 siblings that she’s extremely close to, and she wants them there along with her mom.

In contrast, her fiancé has no siblings and his mom and dad really are not social at all. In fact, her fiancé’s parents are totally fine with not even going to their wedding.

She thinks that her fiancé’s parents are good people, but they are totally anti-social and actually quite negative.

“Second, we agreed on a little party of only 30-40 people, cocktail party style,” she said. “With good food and drinks. I mentioned that I would love to have some dancing and he doesn’t want this.”

She and her fiancé do have several mutual friends that they regularly hang out with, but it’s only to watch sports together since her fiancé never wants to do anything else.

She does have a lot of friends and is very social, so she does go out with them a lot alone since her fiancé never wants to come.

Being that she is social and she does have a lot of friends, she does want to be able to include them in their wedding celebration.

She’s butting heads with her fiancé on so many things that it’s killed off the excitement that she did have about planning their wedding together.

“At this point, I’m wondering if he’s just become a super selfish person, or are we really just that different,” she continued.

“We’ve always known that we are polar opposites but now it seems so glaring to me. He’s perfectly fine being alone, he complains about his “friends” not really being friends (which honestly, he’s not even that good of a friend to them).”

“I am a very social person and I love all my friends, I love food and just having a good time. I’m wondering if this is what it will be like for the rest of my life – just going out to social events alone. Otherwise, we are happy and in love at home.”
