My FI and I Broke Up and our Wedding is Over!

Original post by Riss44

As I write to you all, I sit here crying because as of last night my FI and I broke up and our wedding has been cancelled. We already called every thing off. As some of you remember my FI and I had a fight over going dress shopping. This sort of escaladed and over the past few days things sort of just got worse. On Monday, David came over and he was upset and felt that I had changed, was selfish and he wasn't really sure what his feelings for me were any more. This was all just an excuse because we ended up meeting last night and he had known for a while that this just wasn't working. He used the dresses as an excuse most likely thinking I'd call it off so he wouldn't have to be the bad one. He ended up telling me that he is in love with me but doesn't know if a marriage between us would ever work...that he has problems within himself that he needs to work out. He feels he jumped into getting married way too fast. There are more underlying reasons to the story which I sort of can piece together. It's hard not to pass judgement on him, but I know that there is no other girls in the picture. I know him well enough to know that there wouldn't be. After talking to many friends and family members this would never be the case. It's just so hard. I can't tell you how hard this is on me. I went to work, only to have to come home. It's eating me up inside. My heart feels like it's been torn out and ripped into a gazillion pieces. What makes this so hard is that him and I have known each other since kindegarten. We have dated for close to three years and really got to know each other for the past six. We were always together and I felt like my life was so dedicated to him and now it's all over. I don't know if I can ever become friends with him again. He wants to take time apart and see what happens. He feels we will see if our relationship is strong enough to get back together. Deep in my heart I know this will never work and I don't know if I can ever be friends with him. That thought is killing me. He has been there for me through other breakups and now it's him that's in those shoes and it's so different because he was going to be my life. I'm heart broken. I can't even begin to tell you how upset I am. I'm so depressed over this. It just stinks!!
I didn't come on here to drown you with all of my problems. I really want to thank all of you girls for your help, advice, ideas, suggestions, etc over the past few months. You have all been nothing but good friends and I feel I have developed some friendships on here which made every thing so worth it. I thank Ron and Liz for such a great site. Don't know what I would've done without it for the past few months as I planned for the wedding I thought I'd have. You girls are great!! I want to wish you all the best of luck with your upcoming weddings...enjoy your special days. I find that it will be just too hard for me to come on here and write as I used to. I will pop on every once in a while to see how you girls are doing. Don't know what path life will lead me in now...but hopefully some day I'll be back on this site with a wedding that was meant to happen for me. On this note, I say good bye to you all and thank you all again

Marissa Don't know if I have any more tears to cry!

Oh Marissa I'm so very sorry!!!!!!! I could only imagine what you're going through right now, but I want you to know you're not alone. We're always here for you, sign on anytime just to talk, we truly do care and wish only the best for you!!!!!

The both of you are in my thoughts and prayers. I don't want to sound cliche but they say if you love someone to let them go and if they come back then it's meant to be. So it's good that David was upfront with you, space and time might be the best thing for you right now.

Keep your head up and know that you're loved!!

Marissa, sweetheart, I am soooo sorry baby. My heart is crying for you. I cant even imagine what your going going through right now. I know that nothing I can possibly say could take the pain away, but please know that things happen for a reason. We are here for you. Please stop by & let us know how things are going with you. This is so sad sweetie. This came as a complete shock to me because I never saw your previous post about the argument you got in with David.

Marissa, stay strong sweetie. Please let us know if you ever need anything.

that sux...but it may all work out in the end for you..tomorrow, my sister is marrying the man that she was supposted to marry 2 years ago. they called it off too and a year later started talking again and here they are. but even if you don't get back together, at least you know now - i know that sounds trite and cliche, but its true...why marry someone who wouldn't go to the ends of the earth for you???

hang in there, the crazy ladies of the 06 board are always here for you

Marissa,

Sweetie, I am so sorry. Please know that you are such an amazing woman. You have so much to offer someone. I know you are hurting and nothing we do or say can take that away. As many others have said, give it time. I also believe that everything (good and bad) happens for a reason. Maybe it's not clear to you now, but in time it will be. We are here for you if you need someone to talk to, cry to, etc. I am so sad for you and offer you

Hollie

Marissa, I am so sorry. Please take care of yourself and don't be a stranger. I know initially it may hurt too much to come on here, but once that passes, please let us know how you are doing.

Time and space WILL work- if not to bring David back to you, then to heal yourself and find someone that can make this commitment with you.

Good luck hun. I am here for you if you need to talk.
