Family has become unsupportive and difficult

Arielle, you deserve to be happy! I'm sorry that your family has changed their minds on being supportive. It must be very difficult.

Are you happy? Are you in love? Is this the person you want to spend the rest of your life with? Does he treat you as you deserve? Obviously there are a zillion other questions, but you get the idea. If the answers are yes, then get married. Marry the man of your dreams. Marry the man that makes you happy and loves you without conditions.

It will be up to your family if they choose to attend your wedding or not. You can't make them. The thing is you can't put your life on hold for them either. Whatever has transpired to make them feel the way they are feeling, in time it shall pass (at least I'd hope so).

Go on with your day and celebrate the love you two share!! You deserve it!!

I'll be praying for you!

I understand you want to keep the background information private but there isn't really a way to help you but there are legitimate reasons why a family might withdraw their support.

As a 4 time MOB I can think of a few right off the top of my head, but I have 4 stellar sons-in-law so this wasn't an issue for us.

They may have incredibly solid reasons for withdrawing their support OR they may be acting ridiculously.

Without knowing why your family is being unsupportive, the advice I offer is to stop and think about why your family is acting this way and if they have a legitimate reason to feel the way they do. The fact that you are unwilling to share suggests that they may have a reason to feel the way they do.

Take time to step back and think. If you do that and then talk to your family, explaining your position and recognizing their feelings in a mature and reasonable way (assuming whatever the issue is isn't a total dealbreaker) they may come around and recognize that you have made a decision based on reason and maturity instead of emotion.

Again, this is somewhat generic advice not knowing the situation so I hope it makes sense to your situation.

It is difficult to help with such limited information. I know you want to keep it private, but it worries me that something major has happened and they have a legitimate reason for feeling the way they do.

As others have said its very difficult to give advice when no information is provided. Your family may or may not have a very legitimate reason to withdraw their support. Sometimes its easier to see things from the outside looking in, do they see something in your relationship that they are not ok with? Is it financial? Is it his family?
