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!

i just realized that this thread is a few weeks old, so i dont know if you're still checking in at all, but if you are, Marissa- Im soooo sorry, and i hope that you wounds have begun to heal. Please know that you're not alone in this, and that, although this is technically a 'wedding planning' site, there are many girls on here that have gone through this same thing, and can also be another support system for you.
Best of luck finding your true happiness

There are no words I can say to make you feel better...excpet for the cliches... but the truth is, everything does happen for a reason... and as it was said before.. each night you go to sleep crying.. the sun will come up in the morning and you just have to force yourself out of bed.. but dont make yourself be OKAY right away.. take some time to be sad, to grieve..to deal with this.. you will be okay.. you will!! and please feel free to always lean on us LIW girls!

Marissa,
i guess I haven't spoken to you before, But I just read this story, and my heart is broken for you. I know exactly the pain you are going through, and there is light at the end of the tunnel, that I promise you. Unfortunetaly there is little to do, but feel the pain, and greive the end of this relationship. I know your wedding planning is done for now, so maybe what you can do is focus that energy onto yourself. Pamper yourself with some massages, and anything positive that you can surround yourself with. Especially some really good girlfriend time. Best of Luck to you, I wish you only the best!
