| confused for marriage
Hi all,
i m 31,
you are going to read very confused text below so b prepared.. but situation is like that... so bare with me... and help...
my question is why i m not enjoying my own marriage... everyone around is very very happy expect me...
right now i m too confused about the situation.. i m getting married in 10 days and i m engaged 2 weeks back...
first of all i have skin decease of vertigo... so i get very few proposals for marriage .. so i chose this proposal and she also have same white patch on her face like me.. she is too thin not very good looking also.. but very active, confident, socially good, mixes with my family well... she also loves me lot .. she is on cloud 9 ...
but some how i don't feel attracted to her .. may b coz of looks... as i m scared i may feel i wil avoid her to take her out as she is not good looking ... (sorry to say this, this is sick thinking, but it comes in mind..)
she is not my dream girl, we don't have similarities ... i always gets feelings of breaking up.. but then i think of that poor girl ... till date i never expressed my negative feelings with her as she loves me lot... and i said many times love u to her replies as she should not get hurt..
i m so confused since when i got engaged i m unable to eat properly, i m totally disoriented, i m too confused, i think always for others.. so now a days i m so scared that if something goes wrong.. i can break heart of all people... so i can't talk to anyone as i don't have close friends... and i can't discuss this issue as i m already committed... it can break my image...
i guess i m not ready for marriage.. what should i do.. whom should i talk, whom should i consult, any mediation...

I think you meant to say vitiligo rather than vertigo.
My friend, this is, admittedly, a very tough and confused situation you are in. I may be wrong, but I'm afraid it is too late to turn back now. Go ahead and marry her. Breaking up at this point may bring more harm than an unsuccessful marriage. And who knows if marrying her won't be so bad? Physical beauty has a value, and I'm not going to deny it, but the qualities of the heart, albeit invisible, are a lot more important in the end. If your marriage really proves to be a very bad one, then I guess both of you will want a divorce. It may be stupid or cynical to marry someone thinking of a possible divorce down the road, but that's what most people do these days anyway.
Just one caveat: avoid children in the first three years, because in the event of a divorce children are often the ones to suffer the most.

I actually dont agree with the above people. I dont think that you should enter into marriage thinking that you can always get divorced. You have to make a lifelong committment - even if society says you can change your mind 2 months in. I also have vitiligo and have been dealing with dating and its super hard! I have had a few guys just walk away after they found out i had it. But there will ALWAYS be people in this world that will love you for who you are. This girl isnt the only one!

That's awful presumptious on your part.....I'm sure there are things about you that she's not thrilled with.....you're not perfect, are you?
