Her Wedding Is Three Months Away, And She’s So Scared To Get Married
This 24-year-old girl hasn’t had the easiest time in her love life. Prior to her current fiancé, she spent two and a half years with her ex.
They picked out an engagement ring together and extensively talked about what their future would be like.
But then, one day, her ex told her that he was no longer in love with her and hadn’t been for half a year.
What’s bizarre is that during the time period he claimed to have fallen out of love with her, they had gone engagement ring shopping at his request. He then informed her that he had lost his attraction to her two years earlier.
“To say this information was devastating and traumatic is an understatement,” she explained. “We, of course, broke up, and I was in a really dark place for a while.”
“When I decided I was ready for dating again, I met my wonderful fiancé on Tinder. I never believed in love at first sight, but I knew this was my soul mate from the moment we met for the first time.”
“He was (and still is) funny, smart, and handsome, and he shared my political views and interests. It is like God created the perfect man for me, and I just so happened to find him on Tinder, lol.”
As soon as she and her fiancé made their relationship official, things moved faster than the speed of light.
One month later, they were living together, as her fiancé relocated his entire life to be near her. Six months later, they got engaged.

They both maintained that when you know someone is the one for you, that’s it, and timing shouldn’t matter.
They have spent close to two years together so far. They own a house, and they have a pet cat. Their wedding is exactly three months out, and the planning process has been a bit hairy.
Over the last week, she’s felt incredibly afraid and anxious about her big day. The planning process is not what’s causing her to feel this way.
Yes, she’s stressed out dealing with decorations and vendors and the girls in her bridal party. It’s also been hectic after her maid of honor bailed on her. Her fear and anxiety are centering on the act of getting married, though, not the process itself.
“I have no doubt in my mind that I wanna be with my fiancé,” she said. “When I think of my future, I think of him and our family.”
“But when I think about committing to someone for the rest of my life on this earth, I get this pit in my stomach. I am so scared that once we get married, something will happen to where I can’t escape. Maybe he’ll leave. Maybe something will happen. Maybe he won’t find me attractive anymore.”
“I feel AWFUL that I feel this way. My fiancé is my best friend, and I have never wanted to break up or be apart from him. But now that we are making it legally official, I am scared. I tried to talk to him about how I’m feeling, but he’s said he’s not feeling the same way, and I don’t want to make him worry that I don’t want to marry him. Because I know in my heart that I 1000% do…but I’m just so scared.”
What do you think she should do to get over her wedding day cold feet?
