Wedding Stuffs...

Sep 27, 2011 13:28

Ok so...Peter & I will be getting married much sooner than we had planned. And NO it's not due to a whoopsie in the pregnancy dept (I'm def NOT pregnant); I know that's what people immediately assume. Peter feels it would be more practical in terms of Health Insurance, living together, and his terrible fear of public speaking. He wants a really ( Read more... )

I don't think one has to wait decades to be married (far from it -- hell, after a while, it's shit or get off the pot, right?). As long as you're being cautious this time, aware that rushing too too fast is bad and confident that this is a good, solid, smart, right thing to do, it's all good. :)

And you're totally right about that there, "we're all so terrified of commitment and the potential of divorce we want to just never take the chance of living in order not to get hurt." I feel like I should frame that and hang it on the wall, or something.

That said... um, you'd better be moving on the details of this quick-quick, if you're doing it in two months (and please please let me know what I need to do when I have enough time left to do it :) ).

I will do my utmost best m'dear, as I only have 3 bridesmaids, you being one of them :) My MOH Brianna, you, and my SIL. That's IT, so no worries, you're on the top of the list :) And thank you for being understanding. I wasn't trying to be bitchy-defensive, it's just I've been down this road before in lots of areas of my life, and I know by now how people tend to react; particuraly to ME about this stuff :-P ( ... )

Aw, thanks! And yeah, I totally know how some of that feels. I'm 32 already, after all. Tick-tock, life's a'wastin', y'know?

??? life doesn't start after you marry. life is happening now :)

Yeah, but there's young, single, dating life, and then there's adult, married, settled-down life, with a household and maybe kids.

Being married an adult does not make, I am very happy being a kid thank you very much.

life is what happens while you are making other plans, don't let it pass you by while you are waiting for something else.

Wait Wait, I totally missed this, by this logic, does this mean you think I am an adult, and not just an adult but more of an adult than yourself??
