So I just came from work and it's 6:22am in my room watching tv...I just called in absent. So, I'm going to get married tomorrow and am nervous, sad, happy, confused all at the same time. Nervous you ask?...The obvious, because I'm afraid something wrong might happen on that day. Sad? I feel like some how I've abandoned my family(mom, dad, sister) in a strange way. Happy? I'm starting a new life... a new beginning... a new chapter in my life with the person I most love. Confused? I'm sure I want to do this, but at the same time not sure if this is what I want to do. Well, I hope everything goes well tomorrow and everyone wish me luck.
First of all, congratulations! Sounds like what you're feeling is the typical range of emotions one experiences just prior to tying the knot. You should have seen me on my wedding day. I wasn't really nervous, I was more excited than nervous, but when I took my vows, I bawled like a baby. It was because I realized I was moving on to a bigger chapter in my life and when I looked over at my mom and dad standing there, openly crying, knowing that they realized their little girl was truly grown up and leaving the nest, I couldn't help but be overwhelmed with emotion. Part of me wanted to run over to my parents and wrap my arms around them, never let go, go back to being their little girl. But you know, it was the best thing I've ever done. I really hit the jackpot, I married my best friend and I would say that I love him more now than I did the day we were married. We just celebrated our 10th wedding anniversary last month, and we have three beautiful children together. Good luck to you, I hope your day goes off without a hitch, andmay the two of you have many, many happy years ahead of you!
Marriage is terrific, I hope everything goes well. This is your day and make sure you cherish it. I hope the best to you and your partner!
Thank you guys for your replies. Like scm said, yea sometimes I don't want to leave the nest and just go back and be like things used to be. Anyways, I'm also a pretty shy person and could imagine my self being the center of attention in a room full of people and making a fool out of myself,,,,ya know, like those funniest home videos on tv were the groom falls down to the floor when. A bunch of guys are throwing the groom into the air or when the bride slips or something, lol.. And I'm sure katie is right...marriage is terrific.
