As some as you know, I was having a huge problem with FH's father and mother. Well after a long ridiculous day, I have decided to cancel my wedding. It is really hard, but I cannot marry a man who is still afraid to tell his parents 'no'. I love Tom dearly, but he needs to get himself a backbone, before I can become his wife. We are still together, but at this time, I will not be marrying him. Im sorry to be such a Debbie Downer!!

Re: Some bad news
oh no!
Maybe things will work out - I have seen other women cancel and then work things out...
Good luck!

No, Im pretty sure that things will remain as is... Im just not happy anymore. Its too hard having a relationship with Tom, his mom, and his dad.

Re: Some bad news
I am very proud of you. It takes a lot of courage to do what you did and I'm sure it's really hard. If I was in your position and my FH was that way with his parents, I would do the same thing. If you need to talk, you can FH me anytime.

Re: Some bad news
Thank you so much!!! It was very hard but I cant do it. It will never get better, it will only get worse. I know some people have said to me, that by doing this I am letting his parents win, but I think I would lose a lot more by marrying him right now!

Re: Some bad news
oh no! that's totally not what i expected when i clicked here!
but i understand where you are coming from. my sister and her boyfriend were together for 3 years and talking about getting married, but she broke up with him this past winter because there was too much involvement from his parents. she told him when he was ready to cut the apron strings she'll reconsider the relationship.
i'm sorry you're going thru this...

I don't think that you're letting them win by calling off the marriage, I think that if you will be happier not being married to him..you're the winner for making the best decision for yourself. Always remember you need to do what's best for you. You may love him, but loving yourself and knowing what's right for you is more important.

I am so sorry, but I like everyone else, applaud your decision to make the choice you feel is right before you take vows and jump into something and hope it will magically fix something that you know in your heart isnt right...
