I Never Wanted to Get Married
![]() |
I never wanted to get married, apparently.
I write in a journal a lot.
Early January 2011:
This first excerpt was on a Sunday after I’d seen him at church.
“Why is he so nice? at this point I like him – Iām not sure what that means and pretty sure that I dont think weāll date because I have issues and can’t commit to dating a single person but iI like him – talking to him makes me happy.”
Typical Elisabeth for you there.
This next clip is from when he took me to see Harry Potter,
just a week or two later.
“At one point while he had his arm around me I started freaking out – like really freaking out. I was hyper ventilating/ just breathing really heavy as I thought about what it all meant: that maybe he would think this meant I like him and then he would think we should be dating and then heād want to marry me or something ridiculous like that. I had to calm myself down and remind me that all that was happening was that his arm was around me on a date.”
Not even seven months after that…..
Thanks for indulging me, hopefully you found that at least half as entertaining as I did – but then again I got to read the whole thing š
hahaha love it.
Love it! Funny how things work out, isn't it?

Love it! So cute. Y'all are such an adorable couple!
This is too adorable for words! I found some notes a few months back that Dev and I wrote to each other. It's so funny looking back!
7 months later……LOVE it!!! When it's right, it's right!!
LOL, I love it. It happens to the best of us. I didn't even really want a relationship when I met Mike, then 6 months later we were married. Oops? HAhaha

Haha I love this!
XO
Awwww, I love it! So cute!
Ohmystars! That's adorable!! So glad that you're happily married now, Elisabeth! š
My best friend swore when she was eighteen that she was going to go on a mission and not date until after she returned. Just before her nineteenth birthday, she met a newly returned missionary, and they were married about three months later. Insane! Maybe I should be all non-committed and swear off dating. š
Thanks for sharing! š
That is too cute!!! xo

Adorable! Life's curve balls are what makes it so wonderful!
I love this! I didn't want to get married for a long time either. Now I can't imagine not having married Tim!
That is so funny. It sounds like me! I didn't want a relationship AT ALL. I was dreading this date, but BAM. Swept me off my feet that little sneak!

oh my gosh i LOVE THIS! i was the same. way. and now i'm happier than i ever could have imagined.
You guys are too cute! Is it weird to tell you that you and your hubby were in my dream last night? You guys were trying to get my husband and I to come on a road trip to California! haha
Hahahahaha! WOW. Amazing how our hearts change our minds for us! š
This cracks me up. I love it. He must've really been the right one to make you do a 180 so quickly! =)
I love journals. They are so fun to go back and laugh at! š
Lovely color!

Hehe, too cute!
LOVE this!! So funny how things work out. : )
so cute. I totally did the "I hope he doesn't think too much arm around me thing too" with my now hubby haha. But really Harry Potter, clearly he was a keeper. It was great seeing you again this week!
This story seriously made me smile:) I gave up on dating and shortly after that, my now boyfriend starting talking to me! I think the moment we decide to swear off guys is often the moment we realize what we really want in a relationship. Thanks for sharing!:)

So so funny! I love that you caught these feelings in your journal entries because it is so fun to look back and read the funny things that we think–especially when things play out just the way we were NOT expecting them to!
It's amazing how life works itself out!
Thanks for stopping by Organized Chaos. Following you back!

Hey there Elisabeth! I've been browsing around your fun blog and I LOVE this post! I swore I would NEVER get engaged to someone that I only dated for a few months… I met my husband in August and we were engaged by Christmas! Love is crazy š It was fun meeting/getting to know you at our Blogger Dinner š
