Dear MIMsters: I’m Not Happy About My Forthcoming Wedding For This Reason
Good evening MIM, please help me post this to see if anyone reading this can help me figure out what could be wrong with me. I’m not happy about my forthcoming wedding and this is why.
I am 29 years old and I happen to be the first born of my family. I have gone through different challenges in my life, most especially the challenges of delay and struggle. I experienced marital delay. I underwent series of fasting and prayers before I could get marriage proposals.

I met a man early this year. Even though he is financially buoyant, he is very authoritative and bossy, he commands me anyhow. I went for a prayer programme where I met the man I chose to marry. He is a very good man, he loves me so much and respects me even though I am a year older than he is. I decided to choose this man.
He lost his job last year in November and has been unable to get another one ever since. My parents insisted on us getting married even though he is not financially buoyant. Now we are planning our wedding for the last weekend in October and believe me when I tell you that God has been raising help from unusual quarters. People I least expected to help have been coming out to bless me. However, he is seriously broke, so broke that he can’t even afford a pair of slippers for me, talk less of my wedding gown or anything.

The problem now is: as I am planning this wedding, I don’t feel any happiness at all in my heart. Despite the help from people and the heavy support of my parents, still I am not happy. The joy most brides feel is not in my heart, I always ask myself if I am doing the right thing by marrying this man?
I just don’t know what to do. God has been so faithful to me.
If you are not happy then do not follow through. But then again, the excitement might come after the wedding day.
Do not worry,it is part ofthe challenges u av to face.if he had a job,u would be happy. Pray intensely for him.for God to change his story. U both are going to overcome the storm. And God has been ur help thru this preparation. Just keep praying for him.and urself too. I wish u a blissful married Life.May God uphold and provide for ur family.amen
happiness should not be tied to money n material things.u are tying urs to material thing.u not happy bCOs u not certain I’d he can tk CR of us on marriage
happiness should not be tied to money n material things.u are tying urs to material things.u not happy bCOs u not certain I’d he can tk CR of u n marriage…if he is a hussler, hardworking, loving, caring and respects u I think u should go ahead n marry him n b happy…
U have lost hope on him securing anoda job. U tied ur love to money. Hope he is aware dat u are a year older. Pls dont be forced into d mariage, God hates divorce.
Why aren’t you happy, is it his financial state at the moment, God is faithful he would turn the situation around as long as he is not lazy . but if the reason is the way he treats you, his bossy nature and all you need to have a rethink because in marriage it doesn’t get better because you’re his wife already so search yourself deeply don’t let anybody make decisions that you’re are going to live with for the rest of your life for you.
