Since getting engaged, have you gone all soppy?

Yes I know what you mean, I went to someones wedding party that I barely knew and got all teary eyed over their first dance! lol!

I will admit, I'm worrying about how tearful I'm going be on the day. My OH said a while back I better not cry as otherwise he will - and I was like, nooo, why would I cry? Now, just the thought of us standing there in front of the registar, that gets me all teary!!

Nope..not alone! If I hear Pachabel's Canon (I'm having it when I walk the aisle after changing my mind like 1000 times!) I start crying, if I hear the song we're having for our first dance, I start crying, in fact yesterday I was listening to Belinda Carlisle's Heaven Is A Place On Earth yesteray and yep- got all teary given it's got so many special memories! Like you, we were content together but not really caught up in the whole fairytale wedding thing. We wanted to get married for the sakes of starting a family in a way that wouldn't initiate a lecture from religious family members (on both sides). I'm experimenting with waterproof mascara at the moment too because if I don't..bad things may happen!

The wedding reports on here get me every time, I sit there reading them welling up!

Yep, thats another example too!

And, MrsStobe, that was kind of our reasoning too. Not for the religious side of things as neither of our families are that religious (apart from my great gran - but she keeps it to herself, and her talking about going to church is in the same context in family conversations as my cousins going to dancing lessons, its more of a social thing than something to pressure anyone about..) ..but its more about starting a family. No one in either of our familys have been born to parents who arn't married, so it just seems like a normal progression that we both agreed on.

I made my OH's groom journal a long time ago and didn't get at all emotional when I made it. I got it out the other day, and got extremely teary eyed reading it again!!

I've always been soppy and cry at the slightest thing - I didn't think I could get worse but I have!

Thank the lord no! I was getting married- not changing my personality totally!

Was for about a month, cried at everything, don't tell the bride, 27 dresses... Tarzan??!! But now I'm back to normal thank god as I am not a crying person.

Thenagain thinking about it it could have been coming off the pill.

That's actually got me thinking..I was soo worried I'd cry on our wedding, been on COC pill for 5 years, then POP for 2 months (bloody thing! Never reacted to anything so badly in my life!) now hormone-free so I'm hoping letting my body regulate might mean I just end up smiling through the day after all! Brought waterproof mascara just in case!
