Just don't know what to do anymore....

I just donâ€t know what to do anymore. I know I should have never involved my family in my problems!

 

What I did – last week I confronted my FI about a religious school issue we could not agree on, that was sitting in the back of my mind, and he kind of freaked out, as did I. I got so upset that I called my mom and told her our wedding was off because we could not come to terms with this. I was very upset and said I was going to move out b/c I just couldnâ€t handle it. She said she thought I was doing the right thing if he really couldnâ€t compromise.

 

The next day I also called my brother and told him everything as well. At this point I was sure the wedding would be off because we could just not see eye to eye. I was really an emotional wreck over the whole thing.

 

I decided not to leave our house, which upset my parents. Instead, I stayed with my FI. Now, several days later, after the dust has cleared we have agreed on a compromise, and the school wonâ€t be an issue, because my FI has decided the religious schooling issue is not as important as our marriage and my comfort. But now my family is really alarmed and think the wedding is coming up too fast and that we should postpone it. Yesterday, my mom emailed me to tell me that as a family unit, they have decided they cannot attend our wedding in January, because they feel my behavior has been irrational.

 

I tried to talk to my brother and tell him we have worked it out, but he says the whole family thinks this is tainted now, and they donâ€t feel comfortable based on what has happened. It bothers me that they felt they needed to take a stand in this way, and I just donâ€t know what I can do to change their minds. The lesson in this is that I canâ€t involve them when we get into fights. I know this was a serious issue, but we really did come to an agreement we can both live with now, which is what I was asking for in the beginning. So I donâ€t know where to go from here.

 

I see why they might be worried based on what happened, but I donâ€t think they need to call of their trips. This is very hurtful to me. I donâ€t think they have been fully supportive from the beginning, and that this might be another way for them to voice that opinion. I know we had a serious issue, but I also think that planning a wedding can be a stressful time, and sometimes these emotions surface, and not in the prettiest of ways.

 

Aside from this issue, we donâ€t have a history of horrible fighting. We have had disagreements before but we mostly have always gotten along quite well. I never wanted to really call it off, but I was just so upset at the time!! That was the last thing I really wanted to do.

 

I also think there is a money issue involved. On top of this I have felt extreme guilt about making my family pay for the trip. No one said anything at first, and then waited so long to book, that prices really shot up. Now they say it is too expensive and my brother told me he canâ€t afford it now, to top everything else off. When I told them what happened, they seemed almost excited to cancel their trips!

 

What a mess! What should I dohuh.gif

I think the best thing you can do is just level with your family. Explain that you and your fiance rarely fight, and when this issue came up that seemed unsolvable you weren't sure how to deal with it, as you have never encountered it before. Tell them you initially overreacted and since then you and your fiance have found a compromise that suits both of you. And as a result of the whole thing you are stronger than ever as you've learned that you are, together, capable of overcoming these obstacles.

 

Then explain that you would be elated to have them at your wedding, but will not be pressured into postponing an event that you feel so certain about. Tell them you fear they will regret the decision not to attend their daughter's wedding, but that it is their mistake to make if that is the route they choose to take. Remind them that their actions will not go unnoticed by your husband to be and his family. And they may be doing damage that will not be easily undone.

 

Hopefully when they see you taking a strong stance on it, they will be reassured of your resolve to be with this man and open themselves back up to him. It is not for a family to judge, but to love and support and accept.

 

I hope your family can come to that. Good luck!

I guess I'm confused on the severity of the argument. So everytime you and your FI get in a large fight (cause hello- they do happen and I doubt this will be your last!) they will feel that your relationship is unstable and they can't support that? Sorry but young couples sometimes struggle in the beginning to understand one another's viewpoints and to learn the art of compromising.

 

I think your parents need to be reminded of that. It's not like they are the same couple they were 30 years ago. Realtionships grow and evolve and part of that is learning how to communicate and compromise with your partner.

 

Throw some different religious beliefs in (I think that's what you were fighting about right?) and the whole subject becomes even more touchy. If you two are ok with the differences, then your family should be supportive. Period. However, do keep in mind that once children come into play this whole fight can rear it's ugly head again.

This is exactly what happened! I feel like a fool now, but at the time I didn't think I had anywhere to turn, and I now realized I made a HUGE mistake.

The funny thing is, I remember my bro and SIL got into one big argument before their wedding a couple years ago too, and my parents also acted very dramatic (though their wedding was here, and she was preggers, so they didn't quite AS upset, I don't think).

I think the religion item has made it touchy also. And I know this could come up again and again, so that is why we are having these discussions now (what kind of school do we want our children to attend?) before our wedding, not later. I know you can't predict everything, but the important part is we are willing to work with each other so we are both comfortable.

I feel like I just need to take a break from them all for a few days and focus back on the wedding and planning. Right now I am spending so much time worrying that I having a hard time getting back to the excited place I was before. sad.gif

I agree that you should just stay firm about your plans. If you've explained to them that the issue has been resolved and that you two are able to move forward that should really be good enough. The reality of it is all couples fight occasionally; it sounds like you two needed to clear the air about this issue and that's healthy. Man, I remember my Mother calling her sister to complain about my Dad when I was a kid- and my parents have been married thirty-seven years! I hope your family come around once they realize that you're not going to give in.

I completely agree with Rachel! You are very aware of what you are and are not capable of in a relationship. Just make sure to be extra careful in what you say to your family, and try not to be overly upset if you both have a disagreement. Good luck, and hopefully your family will encourage and be supportive of your marriage over the coming years!

It sounds to me as if the real issue is that they are having an issue with paying for the trip. I would kindly explain to my family that they should not hold it against you that you felt comfortable enough with them to be truthful to them about an issue in your relationship. Tell them that if they do not come that they will have broken your heart. Explain that you are going to get married regardless and that you want them there. No you do not understand their insistence on not attending one of the most important days of your life because they THINK you are acting irrationally.

 

I feel so bad for you....I hope it all works out.

Dear God Girl are you the only female in your familyhuh.gifhuh.gifhuh.gifhuh.gif We're emotional nuts jobs at times. Tell them to cut you some slack!!!! You're stressed, in love, scared, overwhelmed, excited, and a complete push my button and "I kill you". I over read something and all the above took me down a path I shouldn't have gone. Give me a break please..........

I agree SusieQ... we are emotional. eec129, I say keep your date and move forward as planned. If they show up great, if not the day is really about you. Also, learn from this and try not to run to your family with every concern. I think it can be tough, my family will take my side on most everything so it's a great way to make me feel better about situations, but it doesn't help FI and I work together to solve things. It can just complicate the situation by haveing too many people involved and really backfire like it did for you. Hang in there.

I think it's always a good idea to not bitch to heavily about your significant other to anyone- friends, family, what not. Obviously people that love you will have your back and then when you kiss and make up with your honey, they are left feeling like he's a dirt bag. Not saying that's what happened here- just a general comment. :)

    • Just finished building and was lost on heating... [url=https://rjadom.ru/]this site[/url] helped a lot with practical examples.
    • [b]Сайт Кракен – лучшая торговая площадка Даркнета [/b] Сервис Kraken – лучший магазин Даркнета, где продаются разные позволяющие расслабиться препараты, фальшивые документы и деньги, можно заплатить за доступ к чужим личным данным и аккаунтам.

На сайте можно и найти работу. Например, стать закладчиком, химиком или гровером. Можно стать продавцом. [b]Преимущества сервиса[/b] Причины для выбора площадки Kraken: • Полная анонимность клиентов и владельцев магазинов благодаря расположению в сети Onion. • Применение криптовалют в качестве денежной единицы. Это гарантирует анонимность всех транзакций. • Доступ к покупке сразу после оплаты. Закладки уже доставлены – нужно только забрать. • Минимальный риск мошенничества. Проблемы можно решить обращением в поддержку сайта, доступную 24 часа в сутки. • Система рейтинга, которая позволяет сразу отсортировать лучшие магазины. • Доставка в разные города РФ и соседних странах. Список доступных мест содержит сотни наименований. Клиентам сервиса можно бесплатно использовать дополнительные услуги. Круглосуточно они могут получить консультацию у юриста или нарколога. А если появились проблемы – обратиться в техподдержку, которая тоже отвечает круглосуточно. Ещё одна особенность сервиса – собственный форум. Вход из расположенной вверху панели сайта. На форуме есть основные правила, новости и информация от других посетителей. А ещё результаты площадки и раздел для общения доставщиков товара. [b]Способы перейти на Кракен[/b] Сервис, который продаёт психоактивные вещества и поддельные документы, запрещён контролирующими службами. И зайти на него, обычным способом не выйдет. Для доступа следует использовать зеркало, браузер Тор или VPN-сервис. Сервис ВПН – вариант, вариант, позволяющий обходить блокировки сайтов. В том числе – на площадки в Darknet. Преимущество метода – защита связи, возможность изменения данных входа только в браузере или всего компьютера. Недостатки – замедление скорости и небольшой размер бесплатного трафика. Второй способ – специальный браузер Тор. Чтобы зайти на Кракен понадобится специальная ссылка, заканчивающейся на .ONOION. Плюсы – отсутствие оплаты и принцип «луковичной маршрутизации», недоступный посторонним IP и отсутствующая история посещений. Минус – сравнительно медленный доступ. Зеркала сайта – тот же сайт, который расположен по другому адресу. Отсутствуют отличия от основной страницы. Есть возможность запуска в обычном браузере. Зеркальные версии будут работать, даже если временно недоступен официальный сайт. Недостаток зеркал – трафик не скрывается, а посетитель может попасть на фейковые страницы. Потому список зеркальных версий следует брать на надёжных сайтах. Есть такой перечень на наркошопе Kraken https://kraken-v2tor.info/magazin-kraken-v-telegram.html и тематических форумах. [b]Регистрация [/b] Чтобы пользоваться сайтом нужно пройти регистрацию. Это позволит совершать покупки, использовать форум и дополнительные услуги. Для регистрации нужно выполнить несколько несложных действий: 1. Зайти на сайт и указать проверочный код. 2. В форме регистрации ввести логин, пароль и имя. Логин – английскими литерами. Имя вводится и на русском. 3. Завершить регистрацию и подтвердить согласие с требованиями площадки. После регистрации идентификаторами можно пользоваться для входа в кабинет. Здесь показываются данные о заявках и оплате, предложениях скидки, настройки аутентификации. [b]Совершение сделки на сайте[/b] Совершить покупку на сервисе Kraken можно за несколько простых шагов: 1. Указать населённый пункт в выпадающем списке. По умолчанию там стоит место, выбранное при первом входе. Можно указать метро и район города. 2. Найти нужную категорию в меню слева. Указать вариант доставки – например, закладку или прикоп. 3. Познакомиться со списком доступных магазинов. Выбрать подходящий вариант и перейти на его страницу. 4. Познакомиться с отзывами. Если покупателя всё устраивает – перейти к покупке. 5. После перехода к форме заказа указать подходящий вариант. Это может быть Биткоин, карту или телефон и даже игру в рулетку. 6. Получить адрес клада и взять товар в указанном городе и районе. 7. Написать отзыв, чтобы другие посетители знали, что товар качественный – или были проблемы. 8. Запомнить магазин в «Избранное» чтобы было проще заходить из профиля. Покупая товар, стоит познакомиться с особенностями сделок. При появлении проблем покупатели могут открыть спор где будут участвовать админы. Правда, в первый раз купить можно только на криптовалюту BTC. Если выбран вариант «рулетка», открывается доступ к игре. Это даёт шанс заплатить меньше, делая ставки на поле из 100 клеток. Ещё один вид экономии – купон. Он подходит для оплаты не больше 50процентов стоимости покупки. [b]Гарантии отсутствия обмана[/b] Обращение на Кракен позволяет рассчитывать на качество продукта. Показать клиентам, что вещества соответствуют требованиям сайта, продавец может, заказав сертификацию. При прохождении проверки сведения о сертификате будут показаны вверху карточки. Гарантия отсутствия обмана – возможность подтвердить заказ в течение 24 часов. Когда покупатель убедился, что клад на месте, он закрывает сделку. Если возникли проблемы – можно открыть спор. Когда виноват продавец, средства будут возвращены клиенту. У магазина ухудшается репутация, а частый обман приводит к бану. Поэтому некачественного товара на торговой площадке практически нет Отзывы kraken shop Kraken маркетплейснарковалютная наркомаркет Kraken Рынок Кракен наркорынок Кракен в анонимной сети kraken market резервный адрес Kraken даркнет маркет Долгопрудный Площадка Кракен в тор Kraken даркнет маркет Сыктывкар Kraken даркнет маркет Арзамас Kraken даркнет маркет Владимир Кракен Казан Читаева магазин Kraken даркнет маркет Севастополь наркорынок на Kraken Веб-сайт Кракен Kraken трейдинг Магазин Кракена Kraken наркорынок Кракен сайт Москва как войти на сайт Кра?кен официальный

    • Hi everyone! I have been doing lots of research on various wedding venues all around Mexico, my fiance wants a destination wedding and I am happy to have a wedding wherever so long as the vibe is right and guests are happy!  I have been seriously looking at Cabo Azul and was trying to find potential costs for them, but only found a page about their wedding costs from 2010. Does anyone have any updated information on costs / reviews they would like to share of this venue? Or advice in general, anything helps. Thanks so much, happy wedding planning to all!
