for the past couple of days i have been moving my things from my room to my flat, and at first it was kinda exciting, fun etc..

yesterday i don't know what came over me, i guess it hit me that I'm leaving the house that i grew up in, and the tears would not stop, walahi at one point i was telling my eyes of

me: right stop it now, stop crying, why are you still over flowing with the tears business.

lets just say my fiance walked in to this scene and bless him did not know what to do lol.

i think he must have thought i had gone mad, i thought i was being quite seeing how i didn't want any one to hear me, but i got caught.

anyway once the tears started it wouldn't stop, and i felt so silly, every one was reassuring me that at least I'm living in the same city, that my flat is a 7 minute walk away from my parents house, blah blah blah.

i know all that but no matter what people are telling me i cant help feeling slightly down with the idea of leaving.

i want to be 6 again...

I am sure it must be difficult for you but do put yourself in your parents place, I am sure they are happy for you but it will be difficult for them to see their girl leave their home, be strong for yourself and for them.
InshaAllah all will go well for you

WOMEN !!! GET A GRIP !!!

You are very lucky that you are still in the same country as your parents, imagine how it must have been for your mother and the many others who are in their situation and those who marry people from different continents and have to travel far away from their parents, so always say “Al-hamid lil-Allah”.

Have you not watch "The Lion King"? and the circle of life? (if not, its the best Cartoon) anyway to a more serious note, This is life

Fe Aman Allah

Salam Habititi White African,
It's ok to cry. It's just your bodies way of releasing what it's been holding in or perhaps you've been ignoring and not wanting to happen, which is to feel these feelings you're feeling. They are very real and very natural---embrace them sweetie----it's just a phase. Deep breath----enjoy all the feelings you are experiencing. :-) (Big hug)

AKHIRAN!!! The freaking out phase has finally hit the White African :P Hello. You are normal. If you didn't cry about getting married, I would have thought you werent normal :)

Stay strong, it's a difficult time but just think of how you will have your own house that you can furnish and decorate and style :D I think that is the most exciting part about getting married!!

Anonymous, our country is already a jungle, black or no blacks :P

Poor mother now she has to feed an extra person for lunch and dinner. At least your husband does not have to be a guinea pig to your cooking experiments.

متفقه مع كلام الليبية لو مابكيتيش كنت حانتوقع انك مش طبيعية لوووووووول

اوكي اني نتفكر يوم خطوبه اختي بكيت بشكل لا يمكن توقعه

وفي عرسها ليلة حفلتها مع العلم انها سارت بعد حفلتها بيومين بس حاليومين بكينا فيهم اني وامي وبوي الله يرحمه بكي غريب..علي قد ماتعركت مع اختي و ضحكنا مع بعض بس بكيت وهي احرف منا

الطلوع من حوش العيلة صعب والإبتعاد عن الوالدين أصعب ..حتي لو كنتي حاتسكني معاهم في نفس العمارة مثلا بس حاتحسي نفسك إشبح كيف
في بنات يقعدوا يخمموا في طلعتهم من حوشهم شهر وحتي الماكله مايكلوش بس ردي بالك توقفي ماكله يابنتي ردي بالك

ربي يهنيك ياوخيتي ويسعدك
