Just had a call from the registery office and me and Dan are going to give notice of our marriage etc. on Thursday morning- Now this is one of the very specific things I remember from my first wedding. So it got me thinking about how I really, really, really did NOT ever want to get married again- yet here I am a few years later planning my second wedding, and actually how excited I am to be marrying Dan and have a very lovely day (which I don't remember first time around). And have a long future with him. There are so many reasons why I would not marry Dan (due to previous hurt and synism) However one reason why I will marry him- LOVE.
So just wondered if any ladies out there were also sworn off marriage due to previous hurts and what changed your mind!

I nearly got married before with an ex but pulled out just before the date. Best thing I ever did really. I think its easy to say you would never go through it all again but as soon as you meet the right man everything changes. I guess you live and learn and you don't make the same mistakes.
CommentAuthorloubyscooby
Same boat... we both said never getting married again and we also didnt want to live together full time either. Fast forward 6 mths and we discussed getting engaged (he wanted that commitment) and the next thing was walking out of the hotel we had gone to for lunch having booked our wedding. Both of us sat in the car for about 10 mins not saying anything coz we were both alittle shocked. Now I cant wait for it xx
Amy, Im glad Dan has restored your faith, congratulations

Awww that's lovely Louby how spontanious of you both.... and thank you and congratulations on your big day too xxxxx
I started off a third time bride thread as I didn't think I would marry again. I've taken my time getting to know my h2b. He is completely different to what I had thought was my type. We have more in common, don't argue and are so in love its scarey. Glad you've found the one Amy, I know I have now

This will be my second time round. First time was cause I was expecting and wanted to do the right thing by my unborn child. Like mrslockley2b that's about the only good thing that came out of it. I said I would never do it again but after meeting Alan I knew what I wanted from the start. I guess when you find someone that you truly love you know it's the right thing to do & this will deffo be the last time I get married. x

this is also my second time n swore i wouldn't get married again, when h2b proposed i said yes as he looked so scared and vulnerable and i didnt want to hurt him as i love him, i thought i was in for a long engagement n that would give me time to get used to the idea of getting married again, after 2mths of being engaged he mentioned getting married and talked about when to do it, thats when i sat down n thought yes i definatly do want to marry him when we can, i couldn't see me growing old with anyone but him, hes definatly my soul mate, through the planning process n especially when i tried on my dress i had to step back from the fears of getting married again as the fears are related to how bad the first marrage was, i know in my heart n head that i will be spending a very long time married to james n thats why I decided to marry him- its his first time n hes excited about it all, even comming to all the wedding fayres with me lol, i cant wait till we are married, hes truely the love of my life along with the kids xx

CommentAuthorClairebear67
This will be my second wedding, my first one I was 21 and parents took over, didnt have a say in anything for the big day, that marriage was a shambles and ive said for years the only good that came out of it was my children, I vowed for years that I wouldnt do it again. But times change and so do people, I am alot wiser now... albeit a little mad at times : )) my fiance is the most wonderful person I have ever met and I knew it would be different this time round.. Im looking forward to becoming Mrs Shaw...

CommentAuthorMrsd
I thought i never would, and if im honest i am scared it will happen all over again, im trying to trust but its very hard, once you been betrayed its hard to forget. x
CommentAuthorljeh92
My h2b has been married before. It lasted 5 years and she left him for another man. That would be enough to put me off marriage for life so 5 years later he meets me and i can honestly say i was very shocked when he proposed to me just 4 months into the relationship! He's very excited to get married again, he only wishes i was the first and only. He does have a son but it wasn't to his ex wife, it was to his girlfriend before her xx
Soon to be Mrs Laura Naylor !!

this is my 2nd time around as well. got married way to young at 19 and new before the wedding i didnt want to marry him as he had major anger issues but families win and we got married had an awful time it was pure hell and i vowed never again and the strange thing is that when i had only seen h2b a couple of times i realised i had fallen in love for the first time ever and it feels so right i am very excited planning our day and i dont remember that the 1st time i cant wait to marry the man of my dreams he is the one i should have have married the 1st time round xxx
CommentAuthorJulie Walker x
We both said we wouldn't marry again and I can't remember actually feeling the way I do now, last time. I don't remember doing invites or sorting out details at all. What I do remember is the little voice in my head saying "DON'T DO IT!!" I don't regret my first time around because of my children but I would never go back there again. I swore I wouldn't do it again but here I am lol this time feels right though ;0)
oh I do I do I dooooo!!!
oh I did I did I did!!
CommentAuthorlala "mod" bunni
mr lala said that he would never get married again but knew that i wanted too ......... i have proposed to him 4 times over the years and turned down, so was completey blown away ( and still am tbh) when he prposed to me and more so when he suggested we get married on our 10th anniversary
My H2B had been married before, and lets just say it wasn't ended on friendly terms, so I always worried that he would be put off for life, he certainly hadn't said anything about getting married again. I don't know what made him change his mind, I mean I was too shocked to ask!!
CommentAuthormummybez
Practise makes perfect as they say. You could just say the first time round was a dry run and this ones the real thing lol. It's my 2nd time round too and my h2b when i met said he would never get married or have children and after being together 10 yrs this august we have a beautiful 4 year old daughter who he suggested trying for walking along the beach in malta and i was in shock then and burst into tears i was so happy and then he went and shocked me again by proposing last year and said to me he couldn't imagine not ever being together and wanted the 3 of us to be a proper family by name too, and yes i ended up crying cos i was so happy again lol. His brother told me that h2b told him she's not just my girlfriend but my soulmate and my best friend in one, how sweet is that xx
CommentAuthorKatie
We have both been married before and neither of us really ever wanted to be. I got married because I was pregnant and H2B got married because he was living with his Dad and he was desperate to get away from him and his ex came along and he went with the flow. Both of us were married for 10 years so we tried but both of us hated our lives and partners. I had been divorced for 2 years when I met my H2B and he had been divorced 4 months but seperated much longer. On our 1st date my H2B told me he had thought he would never marry again but never say never lol
I fell in love with him that first night. He was not the kind of man I would have normally gone for as he had really long bright red died hair he had tattoos and piercings. But when he contacted me on plenty of fish his message was so warm and lovely I really wanted to meet him. We went on our 1st date on the 9th July 09 and he had moved in and we were engaged by the December hehe
I thought I would never get married again as I couldnt trust men after having a string of awful relationshps after I split from my ex but when he proposed in the October I said yes straight away without thinking about it :-)
