I’m Such a Weenie…

I’m Such a Weenie…

Hullo, again, hive. How have you been? You have no IDEA how I’ve missed you…

I’ve been trying to write this post for 2 hours. I guess the best thing to do is be honest. With myself AND with you.

YouSeeWhatHappenedWas…

To put it bluntly, I was becoming too wrapped up in all the deets. I was neglecting my relationship with my future hubby. We were fighting a lot over stupid, little things. It finally came to a head (sorry for the grodey zit analogy!) right after I got the news that I’d been made a bee. He told me that he felt like I was more interested in the wedding than in the actual marriage.

And he was right. It’s not like I don’t love Mr. Hot Dog with every fiber of my being. But I was becoming so wrapped up in stuff that, in the long run, really doesn’t matter, and neglecting the most important thing - our relationship.

The last few months haven’t been easy.

But they’ve been important. Mr. Hot Dog and I have grown so much in our relationship. And as individuals. We decided not to call off the wedding, but instead move the date to late August.

I’m so happy to bee back in the hive! This time it will be different. Still crafty-DIY-down home-goodness. But it will be more US. Stick around. I plan on it.

Thank you for sharing your story! I’ve definitely had similar arguments with my FI, and it’s been hard at times to remember to stay grounded and realize what this process is all about.

Can’t wait to see what else you’ll be sharing with us!

Thank you for your honesty! This happens all too often, just not many brides-to-be have the courage to share it. I have two friends who have post-poned their weddings (and one is a full-time wedding blogger!) You are not alone, and I think that the Bee will be a great place to have support through your planning.
