Elope Or Not Elope, That Is The Question...

Hi everyone,
I`ve often wondered if people elope because of family problems .... I was thinking of elopin with my hunny only because we are young... I`ll be 23 in Sept.2005 and have been engaged twice (to different guys). This one is really the one, I started dating young, and well, I just know.

Anyhoo, My question is, I really am not in need for a huge wedding, My parents are cool withthe idea, but I`m not sure if his would react funny for it ....

Help! I need your suggestions?!?!?!

I`m just wondering if this would be more stressful seeing as I`m the only female and he`s the only male in our families, plus, we`re both the yungest ....

Ugh! Family makes everything so difficult.
Thanks for your comment though .. Much appreciated.

Hi Coryelle,

Marriage is a serious step, one mistake! and it last your whole life time, I got married 1 day before my 25th birthday and I am very glad I did not marry any of my previous boyfriends that I thought I was so in love with. I dont know your age, but wait and see what happens, find out if it is really love that you`re feeling, because only love can keep a marriage going when the ups and downs come your way, There is no marriage made in heaven but LOVE can conquer ALL....Wait a little longer Coryelle and you wont regret it!

Hi Rosalia,
Thanks for the reply, your advice really makes me think about the entire situation.

It`s just weird too, our families were apparently friends before either of us were born (seeing as we have older siblings). I dont know.

I`m 23 by the way .. Hehe, sorry I forgot to tell you. But yeah, it seems like everyone wants us to get married for their reasons and not our own ... I have plenty of my own ... But I really dont want them to think I am doing this for them, you know ....

I just get so stressed the more I think about it.... Yikes.

Any more input anyone?!

Thanks "oodles" ...

XOXO
Coryelle
