Not only did we learn more about each other but we had 1 whole hour each week to set aside to just talk about our relationship all by its self. Our counselor showed us many ways to open up to one another and great problem solving techniques. I would recommend the class to anyone.

Basically you go to a hotel for Sat & Sun, and all day you go to different seminars that help you prepare for being married. I personally say live together. You'll learn more about each other in the 1st year of living together than you could ever know just dating. But I understand a lot of people are against living together before marriage for religious reasons. I hear they have some awesome premarital counseling that you can do for an entire weekend.

I am also engaged to my fiance and will be getting married August 2009. What we are doing to help our marriage out is going to be doing some pre marital counseling from my minister of the church that I am a member of.Be sure to have a lot of communication and don't go to bed angry. Just be excited and have fun planning it and also spend time laughing to ease the stress a little bit. Congrats on your engagement!

It helped us out a lot. We did small tests to figure out which of us was more emotional, more likely to suppress anger and then blow up later, etc. We learned a lot about each other and it was a good experience. I would also say, take this time to enjoy each other, and do not give up on your hobbies and alone time, it will be tempting to do that to spend more time together, but it is very good for you to have time alone and to yourselves. And good for you for wanting to focus on marriage, not the wedding. try not to stress too much about anything, and good luck!

In some arab countries like Kuwait, Egypt, Lebanon etc..people get to wear what they want.

The wedding is just a ceremony. Like a celebration. The thing that actually marries them is the piece of paper that has both of their names on it. So unless the name is wrong on there (and i assume he would know her name) then He is legally only married to the person written on the marriage license.

I strongly recommend this book if you are at all curious about Middle eastern muslim Culture. I read it in College when I was an anthropology major. It really is a fantastic work of anthropology.

However, theoretically speaking, if you are talking about an arranged marriage in, say, Afghanistan, and the bride and groom haven't met eachother before, then there is a ritual where a mirror is held before the bride and groom, who are standing together, and the bride lifts her veil, and the first view the bride and groom have of eachother is by seeing eachother's faces in the mirror. (this isn't a Muslim tradition, but rather a cultural tradition) Not all Muslims wear burqas.

I love a girl who considers me her best friend. After i told her how i felt she acted as if nothing ever happened. We used to tell each other we loved each other before we went to bed, good night, etc. We did this even after i told her how i felt. I moved to another state and we text all the time, told each other the almost the same every night. Finally i told her i still felt the same way toward her, and i said i didn't know if i could keep talking to her all the time and still love her as i do and her not love me back. She said something around the lines of "Don't ever stop talking to me" i don't remember entirely it was a while ago. Things went on same as they always did, I did and still do love her, but i don't tell her anymore. She is dating an asshole, and wont listen to me when it comes to him. Its been a few months since the last time i told her i loved her, but i still do. Send her messages of what you like, i am sure that eventually you just wont be able to do it anymore.
