Any females have cold feet?

Bridget, on May 17, 2022 at 3:16 AM Posted in Community Conversations 0 6
I’m excited and nervous and stressed from wedding planning. So I’m love with my other and I know he’s the right one but I can’t help having second thoughts. Anyone else. I spoke to a lady that’s been married for over 20plus years and she said that’s normal. Men are not the only ones to feel it too. What about you?

    I've been engaged since 2019. Sometimes I worried a little when we fought, but that doesn't happen anymore.

    I think you have to distinguish between whether it’s cold feet or generalized anxiety and excitement about this key milestone called marriage. It is such a shift from being single to married, that I think it’s normal to question whether or not you are in it for the right reasons, if it’s the right decision and if it will work out. I’ve been married before and I had a bit of like “OMG this is really happening. Am I ready for this?” But then I will reflect on our beginning and our milestones in the relationship and realize, yes this is exactly where I am supposed to be.

    I've also been engaged since 2019. I will say the pandemic and high levels of uncertainty make me wonder if marriage is worth all the hoopla or should we have just ran away and got married somewhere beautiful. There were times I wondered if he even still wants to marry me (I thought one day he'd throw me over his shoulder and take me to the courthouse cause he'd be tired of me not being his wife. But then I remembered he hadn't done that because he was respecting my wishes of wanting to have a wedding). So yeah, it's normal lol.

    I think it's normal. Most people have some degree of apprehension when they're faced with a major life decision (picking a college, picking a major/ career, going to grad school, changing jobs/ careers, etc.), and getting married is no different. Plus you add on all the stress of planning a wedding, dealing with family, financials, etc., and you're bound to have some lingering "what if" thoughts. If there's something specific that's bugging you, talk to your partner about it and see if it's something that a little good old fashioned communication can fix. There may be a real concern that needs to be addressed, but more often than not there's a reason you agreed to get married and it's just the stress getting to you Smiley smile

    I think it's normal. You're making a lifelong commitment to someone. There's not many decisions we make in life that last a lifetime. It's a major life decision.

    Is it cold feet? Or just nerves? It is a big life decision so I understand
