Pre-wedding and Arguing a lot

Julie, on November 1, 2019 at 10:28 AM Posted in Family and Relationships 0 9
Anyone else have issues arguing with their fiance as the big day grows closer? We argue about stupid little stuff A LOT lately! I feel bad about it. But he has been pushing my buttons. And I see that I am also pushing his. I have been stressing a lot over multiple things lately, and I am finally getting some mental health/anxiety help (which i have needed to do my whole life, basically). Anyways, tell me it's not just us?!?! 😭😭😭

    It's not just you, this is a stressful time! It's totally normal, and you'll work through it!

    It's not just you, every couple has their spats. This is a stressful time, your wedding is almost here and so are the holidays! You both just have to work through the stress and make an effort not to take it out on each other. When are fuses are short, we tend to get snippy. The most important thing is realizing it and sitting down to talk it out. FH and I had a spat like that a couple of months ago where it seemed like all we did was bicker about the stupidest things!

    It's common because you have added stress from wedding planning. Take time where you're not doing anything wedding related and just enjoy each other's company

    Nope, not just you! Consider it a not-so-fun practice in communication, stress management & collaboration. The last 30 days were the worst. Two days before we left for our DW we even had a “maybe we shouldn’t get married!” blow up. 😫

    Definitely not just you! Try to have one night a week for a date night. No phones and no wedding talk!

    It’s for sure not just you. this happened to us too but we settled down on the day before lol. The rehearsal dinner was rough and for sure brought out the worst in us. just take some time to try and do stuff that isn’t wedding related to save your relationship from the tension a little bit!

    I agree with PPs it's not just you. It might help to have a gratitude journal where you can write one sentence a day about why you love your partner. Just one reason each day. Maybe when you've had a small spat, or when you've had a negative thought about him in your head, you can think of something positive immediately afterward. It might also help if you voice something positive to him as well. My FH and I are in premarital counseling and part of what we do every day now is tell each other one thing we love about each other. At first it felt really silly and inconvenient, but now we practically can't wait to tell each other something nice every day. It doesn't completely stop us from having small disagreements (and it doesn't make it any less annoying when he's snoring at night), but it definitely reminds us that our friendship is the most important part of our relationship. Hope this helps a little. Hang in there. You're so close to your dream day and once all the stress of the wedding is over, hopefully things will get back to normal.

    This is a great idea! FH and I do this every other week for budgetary reasons. We absolutely cherish our date nights!

    I think that's probably just wedding stress. I'm sorry you guys are fighting. Try to have some wedding- free quality time.
