Glenna Katherinaa month agoThis is my second marriage. We got engaged over two years ago, but life kept getting in the way of planning the wedding. I was getting really frustrated with people constantly asking about the wedding plans, so we finally decided to elope at a ski resort in Colorado. We went on 1/3 and just returned late last night. Only a few close family members and friends knew about the plan, but I haven’t spoken to them since before the trip. I’m still exhausted from the trip and the thought of making an announcement to everyone else feels overwhelming, especially since I don’t really feel anything about it. Don’t get me wrong, I love my partner, and it’s nice to be married to them, but it doesn’t change my life in any significant way. We’ve lived together for eight years and already own a home together. The people who do know keep asking me if I’m excited. I say yes, but honestly, the real answer is no. I think my new husband is also wondering why I don’t seem excited. Is something wrong with me for not wanting to shout from the rooftops that I’m married? And how am I supposed to announce this to everyone else?146
