DP and I have been together for approx 8 yrs now.
We have two children, we have lived together for 7 years, we both work, we're happy together.
DP proposed in feb, ever since then our family and friends have been a fucking nightmare.
Dsis1 - wants us to arrange our wedding date around her mate who announced her engagement after ours. Dsis1 is being a bridesmaid for her but has refused to be a bridesmaid for me. Says she thinks it's pointless??
Dsis2 - wants to inspect my wedding dress and plans "in case I show her up".
Mum - shown no interest at all other than giving me a list of people who I must invoite or "she'll never forgive me"
Dad - has told me he will boycott the wedding if we decide to get married in a church so won't give me away.
Dp's friends - all keep critiscising our various ideas for the wedding venue etc.
So, I am now inclined to run away with DP and the two kids, get married in a registry office and tell everyone afterwards.
We're not getting married for the big day, we're getting married because we want to. Am so fucked off right now.
