I had a serious word with my mum a few months in that she was ruining the whole thing for me, and can either get on the bus or end up scarring the whole thing. She was actually amazing from then on. Might be worth having serious conversations, let them know it is a problem?

Why would someone want to have a wedding honestly? It’s super stressful and so unnecessary. Does it even end up being a positive memory in the future?

I was just talking to my mom yesterday about mine and told her I wanted to have a nice bottle of wine at my husband and I’s table... she laughed hysterically and then goes “wait do you actually think your going to get to sit down and enjoy the evening?!” ... really making me re-think it all!! 😖

Yes! I’m in the middle of wedding planning and it is rough. So many opinions that I don’t need when it comes to the dress, cake and guest list. I wish we had done a destination wedding for just the two of us.

Been having trouble moving on since girlfriend ended relationship 3 weeks ago after 2+ years of dating. Before ending it she came over 3 weeks prior to basically give me a chance to work things out and we had a good discussion but then I went back into our routine and didn’t really fight for it or have serious follow up convos that we needed. Now I just have so many regrets that I let her go. I know we still love each other and left on “good” terms but can’t forgive myself for my lack of action.

My SO adds very little to our relationship. She has a dead end job. I cook. I work. I oversee finances. I plan trips. She doesn’t have a voice in the relationship. I’ve asked her to give her perspective but she always defaults to mine bc she thinks I’m smarter/worldly. She feels intimated by me and my social circle. Lately, I’ve found myself thinking for her. Anticipating her wants and needs and then adjusting my behavior to meet them. Which she appreciates but it’s frustrating 29M 27F
