My fiancee and I have known one another for over five years, now. To clarify, we met at the start of our sophomore year in high school. Now, she's on the east coast in college, and I'm in the Air Force, stationed in the midwest. We were good friends for a long time, though I had very strong feelings for her. It wasn't until after I left home that we found out we shared the same (very strong) feelings for one another.
Now, we're planning on getting married at the end of December. Most people seem to be very happy for us, but there are some that are remarkably negative. I haven't seen my fiancee in over two years; We've never actually dated. However, we love each other to such an extent that marriage is very much what we want. Furthermore, our wedding was only going to be the two of us, and a best friend to serve as a witness. Yes, we are going to have a civil wedding. Now, one side of my family is up in arms over the fact that they won't be there.
Are her and I doing the right thing?
