congratulations! :) maybe the nervousness is just caused by excitement... wedding jitters and all. :)
i've been proposed to about 3 and a half times, the first 3 with the 3 ex-boyfriends and half the proposal with the current one. although i wanted to get married then, i didn't want to just for the sake of it. or just maybe the proposal came at a time in the relationship when i'm questioning my own feelings with the guy. had i been sure, i would have gone thru it. but i guess i didn't love the guy enough to spend my life with him.
as for the current boyfriend, his proposal came 3 weeks after we got together. he started by asking if i would be interested in a double wedding (with his mom, with husband #3) in a week's time. i felt the relationship was so new and has not yet fully developed, i claimed he was just pulling my leg and not serious about it. well that was 3 years ago already and i don't think i could marry him now if he asked me. so many things have happened between then and now that i don't think i can resurrect my old feelings back, nor can we start again.

hehe :)
i could not consider the fourth proposal as a full one. it was made in haste and i didn't know if it was serious or not or it was just because his mom was remarrying husband no.3 that time and she asked him if we would consider a double wedding that time.

I have been marriage for 18 years. Getting married can be scary at first especially if you don't know the changes that are going to happen in the relationships after you say the I DO's. I was 16 going on 17 when I married and I was scared at first but then later wondered why I had been scared. I think my husband actually almost got cold feet because he did start wondering if we were doing the right thing. But I told him as long as he loved me and treated me right I would be okay and although we have had our ups and downs we have stuck together through thick and thin. Congratulations on getting married Next April. I hope you have many happy years ahead of you..

hi denisedora,
Well, I think I am more nervous rather than afraid.Or maybe I should say that I am not afraid at all. I guess, it will be excitement that will engulf me once I learned that I am getting married.Excitement because finally I will be with the person I truly love.Excitement because I will start a new chapter in my life with the man I chose to be my partner.If God permits, two or three years from now, me and my boyfriend are planning to get married and with God's will, I know it can be realize.It makes me blush whenever my boyfriend will tell me that I will be his future wife, and he will be my future husband. I just wonder what will it be like being with him under one roof.As of now, I can say nothing against him. He is a very good and responsible man. He always think of my happiness. He always spends time with me despite his very busy schedule.Although, I cannot say that I know him well enough, as for now, I can say that I am happy with him.And it will be my heart's delight to be united with him in the future.

hi there denise. of course i am not afraid of marriage and there's no reason for you to be afraid of it especially if you are mature enough and ready to take on all the challenges and responsibilities that married life will bring. be thankful that someone is willing to spend the rest of his life with you.
