So, my wedding is a ways off. We were originally going to get married in January of 2011, but then decided to push it back to September so my fiance can get out of school. Not a problem, I don't mind waiting.
My parents, however, have not spent much time with my fiance and really don't know that much about him because of it. Becuase of THAT, they don't like him that much..but I know if they got to know him that they would get along swimmingly.
At any rate, my parents seem to be taking this sort of approach of "If we just don't talk about it and ignore it, it will go away." I WANT to talk about my wedding plans, I don't have many friends that are girls or a close sister or anything, so I want to be able to gush with my mom....who is pretending I'm not engaged.
How the heck should I handle this? My grandmother said to just be persistant and maybe if I keep talking about it my mom will open up, but I'm getting sick of every comment getting shot down with a "Weddings are expensive." and that'st he end of the conversation. My mother actually went so far as to ask me if I loved my fiance.... and I'm thinking, wtf? Yes? That's why we're engaged?
Not sure how to handle this one at all, ladies.
