Not sure if this is a good place to post this but why not give it a shot? 😅
What advice would you give to someone whose mother doesn’t seem too excited for your wedding?
Just a little background, I am the first out of her children(just my sister and I), to get engaged and before meeting my now fiancé I was in a very long relationship(12 years) with my childhood sweetheart. It ended terribly because he became mentally abusive. When we were together and things were good, we had talked about marriage and of course, I would excitedly tell my mom. She would also get excited and offer to plan with me.
I was expecting the same enthusiasm with my engagement but that’s not what is happening. When we told my parents that we were engaged, they seemed to be happy for me but my friends so far are the only ones equally as excited as me. My fiancé is an amazing man and I would have never been able to heal from my previous relationship without his continuous support so I’m sure it’s nothing to do with him.
Am I just overthinking this?
