I love my fiance with all of my heart, however lately I have been having second thoughts. We have been together since highschool (7 years) and in the past year we got engaged and bought/renovated our first house and I started a new job, so lots of changes.
Our wedding is coming up at the end of this summer and I'm starting to feel more anxiety than excitement. We have a lot of expenses between the wedding and the new house which is causing stress, plus my new job is a very stressful one.
On top of all that, the house we bought is in a small isolated town where he works and is not close to our friends or really anything. I love the city and feel so abandoned and alone in this town, however he absolutely loves it up here.
We have been having some serious talks over the past little while and one thing we have realized is maybe our lives aren't on the same path. I have always wanted to travel for work, which my new job allows, but he has a steady job here with no travel and doesn't like when I go away for long periods of time.
We both love each other immensely, however neither wants to resent the other person down the line by forcing them to do what the other person wants, and he isn't really receptive to compromise in any way.
I am afraid that if we stay and continue on the same path we may regret it down the line, however in the same breath if we decide to change things by cancelling the wedding/ breaking up we will regret that too...
Wondering if anyone else has been in a similar situation/ had similar thoughts that can lend some experiences/ advice?
