No more sex. Unfortunately.
Soooooo...time to be honest and (hopefully) get some good advice.

Pete and I have been together a few years now and we used to be all over each other all the time. Literally could not keep our hands off each other. We've been living together for about a year now and engaged since the end of July. About 5 months ago I noticed that my libido dropped significantly, I just wasn't interested in sex at all. Kissing was still awesome and lots of cuddling, I just didn't want to do it. And now I realize that Pete has kind of accepted it and has stopped trying all together. I asked him about it and he said he really isn't interested in sex anymore either (which really broke my heart). That's when I realized we haven't had sex in 6 weeks!!! That is insane for us and definitely not ok in my books!

Has anyone else experienced something like this or have any advice for how to get out of it? I'm getting desperate! I wonder if it's the fact we've been living together for awhile now and the "spark" is gone or I've just been stressing about planning lately?

HELP!!!!!!!!

How to Ask a Bridesmaid to Step Down?
I've had a lot of issues with one of the bridesmaids since the very beginning and I realize now it was a huge mistake to ask her in the first place. I think I've come to the conclusion that she needs to not be a bridesmaid anymore for the sake of my sanity. How do I ask her to step down without ruining our (now strained) friendship?

Has any other brides had any experience with a similar situation?

I just feel so sick about this.

Is your guy gonna get a sneak peak at your vows?
Thank you girls so much for your advise about a non-religious ceremony. Looks like I have a bunch of reading to do.

Pete and I were talking about our vows and whether we were going to share them before or wait for the ceremony and have them be a surprise to each other.

What are you girls planning on doing?

Any other atheist brides out there??
Hi Everyone!!!

I have to admit that I've been lurking on this site for a little bit, waiting for Pete to propose (he did it last nite!!!) and I've noticed that there are a lot of religious couples on this site, varying from casual to very strong believers.

Pete and I were both raised Roman Catholic but now identify as atheists. We respect the religious, but we don't believe in any sort of god, higher power or anything like that. And our beliefs with be reflected in our wedding day.

I was just wondering if there were any other atheist brides out there? I'd love to hear how you are doing your ceremony and how you're dealing with family who are still religious.

I am very excited to marry my best friend, the love of my life, my partner, my teacher, my strength and my comfort.
