It could be that your relationship suddenly takes a turn for the worse, or that you have a nagging feeling deep down in your gut that this isn’t the right choice. Sometimes even the wedding planning process itself brings out a side of people never before seen by their partner.
While planning a wedding can be a stressful time, and a certain amount of friction is to-be-expected, an unmanageable level of friction spells trouble. Yes, there is the honeymoon at the end of it all, but the honeymoon is not a good example of day-to-day married life; it’s a great vacation. While life won’t always be as stressful as planning a wedding either, (while trying to work and live life simultaneously), it can be that stressful—and even more so—from time to time. Many married couples take significant steps forward in life together after their wedding. Some buy houses, cars, or property. Some have children and start joint bank accounts to pave the way for the rest of their lives together.
If wedding planning seems stressful to you and your fiancée, just imagine how stressful losing your job when your first child is on the way could be. Imagine dealing with your in-laws moving into the guest bedroom because their house was demolished in a flood. How you relate to each other and work together as a team pre-marriage is likely the same way you’ll operate post-nuptials, so take note and don’t ignore your instincts.
