Rabid_Wolf User ID: 2523067 United States 10/06/2011 02:01 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I have a question. Is she one of those, "This is my special day, and most important day, that I have waited my whole life for!" kind of people? If so, you may have issues to deal with down the road. If not, grab her quick. Elope... TODAY! Your wedding is indeed a special day, just not the end-all be-all of days, and if you both know that, you can work to make as many days of your lives just as special, only different. When things get tough, love each other more.<--That is all the advice your really need, isn't it? Good luck! |
DaNose (OP) User ID: 2172591 United States 10/06/2011 02:01 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | When (if you havent already) you both learn to say "yes dear", it will make things easier for you both. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 2740590 traditionally , she may need to say it in the bedroom...dont ask beyond her capabilities and He will need to say it in the running of the house and home Together they can say it regarding finances.

But our wedding is going to be really modest and she is just fine with that. I did want to elope and she had no problem with that but her parents of course wanted to involved. So it was actually cheaper to have a traditional here for all our families to come and be apart of than to fly us and her parents and my parents to vegas. My decision!

Blitz Onyx User ID: 1241174 United States 10/06/2011 02:06 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | theres an old priest song that says Quoting: Blitz Onyx for every one that make it at the great escape,leave a thousand more who suffer in there wake.. but really your right.. you cant just do nothing that would be no life...it is work..if you get past five years youve got a shot..so i wish you luck man I don't expect it to be easy. I have had a few long term relationships and lord knows they were anything but easy. I understand that this will be a little different. But at the sametime she is alot different than my other relationships, still this will be alot more serious I know. What can you do though? Just hope the woman you love most loves you the same? ive let my mouth dig me in some holes. so never lash out in anger, they remember everything.she will have to come first and you may feel insignificant at times(because you will be)especially if you have kids. i dont mind becuase i love them and there needs always come first, but if you ever expect to be glorified for your sacrifices you may be disapointed. but if you really love your family you will continue to contribute every ounce you can to see them grow and prosper..thats all the reward i need weather they appreciate it or not is irrealavent. just realize you are handing your life over on a silver platter..to serve the needs of others. sorry for bad spelling. guess my wife is right, im just a big dummy.

Make sure she comes before you do-that works! Quoting: SpiderJones Another good one! Honestly my friend I try and maintain that philosophy to anyone I meet but especially when it comes to those that have to put up with me on a daily basis! But thanks for the reminder and I will do my best to keep this philosophy so thank you!! The truth is the truth even if no one believes it and a lie is a lie even if everyone believes it! |

barky User ID: 1509185 United States 10/06/2011 02:16 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | make sure you both realize nothing changes, marriage is not some magical thing that keeps you together no matter what you do ( or not do). Keep the same mind set as a longterm relationship , you have to work at it everyday. Make sure you both are honest about who you are before the vowels, cause some people act one way to get the other to like them then the ring comes on and they be them self and shit hit the fan. Any people that would give up liberty for a little temporary safety deserves neither liberty nor safety. ~Benjamin Franklin |

I wasn't assuming anything, just asking and offering advice. As to more advice, perhaps you could rent one of those tearaway tuxedos that male strippers use. It could save you some time after the reception. :) She would probably get a laugh out of it too. My best wishes to you both! |
Silkstalkings User ID: 1596989 United States 10/06/2011 02:17 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Do they really change after the I do's? To those that have been with their significants for a few years before the I do's. Quoting: DaNose You have no idea man, really. The one who said above that you will be insignificant at times hit the nail on the head. Since you both have children, she will never make you number one EVER, no matter what she says. In return, you need to let her know that she will always hold the same spot she keeps you in. If you can never be number 1 in her heart, she doesn't deserve that spot in yours. As for changing once the ring is on the finger... it WILL happen. Once she has a ring on her finger, she wins the prize. No need to keep acting. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 1517063 United States 10/06/2011 02:19 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | congrats bud. Don't worry about advice, it will come to you naturally. you'll feel it within yourself if you know you are connected souls. If you look at it from this perspective, you will have the compassion you need to make it work through the hard times. you don't just love this person, you are kindred souls. I have always put the happiness of my son and my wife before mine. It is just the way I am. The only problem is if this is ever taken advantage of, you would know if this does happen, and, just have a heart based conversation with her if it does. It is a lot of give and take, but it goes a lot deeper than just this is the chick I love... CONGRATS AND BEST to you both now and in the future... |
