20 Days Before Her Wedding, Her Fiancé Suddenly Called Things Off
Earlier in the week, this 24-year-old girl’s fiancé, who is also 24, suddenly called things off just 20 days before their wedding.
They have been together for four years and engaged for two, and her mind is swirling over his unwillingness to continue their relationship.
Her fiancé keeps insisting that he doesn’t want to end things over her; it’s just that he has things he needs to work through on his own.
He added that he wants to have the freedom to randomly take a 12-hour long road trip without her freaking out or asking questions.
If he feels the urge to take a vacation alone, he wants to be able to go off and do that without repercussions.
He additionally said that he no longer wants to have kids either, even though he promised he wanted this over the last four years.
Her fiancé would tell her things like he can’t wait until she can be a stay-at-home mom and that he thinks he’ll be a fun dad when they have kids together. Her fiancé even agreed to have two kids with her.
“I wanted to be there to support him through what he’s going through and be able to work it out with him…[he] truly was the love of my life and my best friend,” she explained.
“We just bought a house together last year, so we’re both still living in the same house; we bought a truck together that he took with him, and we have 7 dogs together.”

“I feel like my whole [world] is crumbling and coming to an end, and I know there is someone out there that can and will give me everything I want, but the thought of moving on is so scary to me because I pictured the rest of my life with this man.”
Looking back on their time together, she feels he abused her kindness and took her for granted. He wrecked his motorcycle one day, and she spent three months sleeping on the floor right by his side as he healed.
She left all of her friends and family members behind to follow him. She changed her job, sold her car, and purchased the house they currently live in.
She even allowed him to change her wedding plans around to accommodate what he wanted, as well as what his family wanted.
She can’t believe he so easily ended their engagement and called off their marriage without any warning.
He has continuously told her that he loves her after calling things off, and then he attempted to sleep with her, too, while claiming it was his way of proving to her he’s still in love with her.
They’re currently living together in the house they share, as selling the house isn’t possible, nor is her leaving the home.
“He refuses to talk to me about how we can split bills now and how things will work from here on out,” she said.
“And when I asked politely for him to sit and talk with me, he got nasty with me. I’ve been leaning pretty hard on my 2 best friends, but I don’t want to lean on them so much and smother them. I don’t want to bring them down with my problems, and I don’t want to inconvenience them at all.”
“I feel hurt, used, and discarded, and I don’t know how to move on from this. He keeps saying if he figures it out, we can try again in however long it takes. Like he expects me to wait for him. Should I wait for him? How do I move on from the future I had planned with him? And more importantly, how do I pick myself up and out of my depressive episode?”
