hi, just wanted to share something and see if anyone has some comments.
well, was planning to set a date in early 2010, then was given an offer for dec. Spoke to my HTB, first he sounded interested then now he like quite aloof.
somehow i feel he like not so kan cheong about the wedding. been asking him to start planning his guestlist, go browsing but there seems to be not much interest. Do you think he getting jitters? sigh...or am i thinking too much.
Wedding preps suppose to be fun when 2 are involved, but....sigh

tks aveline, so u suggest i should just go ahead and find my stuff? cos i dun wanna push him too hard but i need him to make decisions and he's not responding too. big headache this one.
Hi all, today dun seem as quiet as yest..
ylng3r> I'm still at my current home, haven't move to bishan yet..
Deerixp> Thanks ya...
Purpur> Usually guys are more aloof on wedding planning.. Why not you go and research a bit first, then after that go to ask your HTB for opinion and concensus.. It might work better this way.. Cheer up..

HFL: we going kickboxing tonight...
Purpur: like u said, wedding is a happy occasion.. dun becos of small issue and argue over.. maybe only when $ involve, then seek for his opinion... you can always proceed to look ard for ideas or stuff with ur friends.. then bring him once u shortlist some.. it may helps..

Hi Purpur,
I had the same prob as you late last year. My bf also eveything not keen, very laid back kind loh. Takes things easy have to push and push till i get fed up...So after a good talk, I decided to do my own research 1st ... Then whenever i discuss my findings with him slowly he started his engine too... I notice they need a longer time to get into things...
So don worry just carry on with your research and discuss with him.. if things are still not right then have a heart to heart talk with him...
Hope it helps

HFL: no prob, work more important...got time then come in or when it's convenient lor
xfz: haha pulling ur legs only lah, u looked really happy and blissful that day
congrats on ur collection of keys!
ave: u got promoted recently so busy is natural...haha. enjoy ur kickboxing class tonite
purpur: he must be thinking that it's still far away, so no actions from him. Maybe u can go do ur own research first like what the gals here mentioned, then seek his opinions? Most guys in general are not too keen on all these wedding preparations except me...hahahhaa...
Wedding is supposed to be a happy affair, dun get too stressed out over it ya?

purpur> i had the same prob at first, my HTB is so relaxed abt everything until i 'forced' him to go w me to the hotels and restaurants and he realised the date we wanted are all booked. Then he realised that it was not me being kancheong. He also not interested in browsing with me. So i just go with my friends and tell him those i shortlisted, then get him to go w me again.
xfz: congrats haha got ur keys. I still looking
haiz...

looks like all men similar...i guess i have to get my gfs to go browsing with me then. tks. i feel better now.
XFZ> congrats in getting the keys to ur lovenest =)
purpur> not to worry… guys r usually slow to all these (shld say lazy)… juz tell him that u will be doing the researching and dun blame u for choosing those higher ends one…. hahahaa…
u can always research and shortlist a few choices then discuss and decide with him together… this shld gear up his momento…. =)
like me (and I believe most of the gals here)… I’m doing all the sourcing and researching… so in the end I’m smarter than him… hahahaa… I will always finalise 2 choices to him (usually is 1 high end & 1 low end)…. he will always confirm the higher ends one… cos he hiau mah… hehehehe…
most impt thing now is to fix a date, then search for venue, BS then PG/VG… the rest of the things r on the way if u spot something u like then u can list them down first and do a step at a time…
if u need any help, we r always here to gv u advice… =)

Thomas: haha... then i no comments liao!
Thomas> Feeling better, drowsy after med as usual.. Just woke up..
XFZ> It's like that one.. Every weekend, I spent like a millionaire, few thousands off every week.. Very siong.. But once the big items are off the list, it won't be as bad..
Open up your excel, prepare a sum that you are willing to spend and list down the things that you want to buy and the amt.. Some things also dun need to buy first if they are not essential, like bookshelf, cabinets etc. This way, you won't over-spend too much.. Or else this one nice, top up a bit, that one nicer, top up more then you will easily over-spend by a lot..
Amy> One rochester park is nice.. Must be brave.. But quite ex.. I find a small gathering with relatives and close friends is very cosy, given a choice, I also hope to be like you..
KK's one is at Changi Village Hotel..
