Your Friends and Your Wedding Engagement
Getting married is a big step to take in life and it can definitely mean some changes for you.
Your friends will be among the first people who want to know what your engagement means for your relationship with them.
Here are a few tips help deal with them as easily as possible.
Once you are engaged you will probably find that all your friends want to get involved in your business straight away.
You may find that one of your most shy friends suddenly wants to know the ins and outs of you relationship, or that one of your closest most trustworthy friends starts doubting whether marriage is right for you.
This may seem like you worst nightmare, but it is important to remember who these people are.
They are your friends and they have your best interests at heart.
So if someone asks if you are too young to get married or wonders if you are the type that can really settle down, take a step back before you scream.
They most likely are just worried that they will not see you as often once you are married.
One of the earliest things to do once you have let your friends know that you are getting married is to spend some quality time with them.
While you may think that you just want to spend all your time with your new fiancé, try to be a little diplomatic.
If you get engaged and your friends suddenly stop seeing you this will probably cause some problems.
While your fiancé definitely should not be overlooked, a shopping trip with the gals or a poker night with the guys will let them know that you have not forgotten about them.
This will also work in your favour you when you call upon your friends for help and support with planning your wedding further down the line.
Unfortunately, while the vast majority of people will support you and the only comments you may get frustrated with are ones that pile tons of excitement and anticipation on at times when you may feel a little stressed, there may be a few people who are completely opposed to the idea of you getting married.
If you find yourself in this position it is important to remember that your friends will most likely get passed their objections and eventually be happy for you.
If they do not, then you should ask yourself if they were your true friends to begin with.
After all do you really care what they think? Always keep in your mind that it is your wedding and nasty comments from others are neither wanted nor appreciated.
This should help you to get the most enjoyment of your wedding engagement as possible.
