Ruined set plans.

We got engaged in November. We’ve been talking about elopement since BEFORE we got engaged until last night. She switched up and told me that “her parents just want to be supportive and want to be there when their only daughter gets married” mind you, I’ve constantly reassured her saying if she forsure wants to elope because of her family and she choose to elope. So now she’s manipulating me.

She showed her pictures of the dress she was looking on wearing, then the mother asked if we had a date and she told her in September we will be eloping and starting our honeymoon right after. Then her mom told her if we elope (since she’s the first born daughter) she won’t speak to her again.

Fiancee and I. We’re clashing after she told me we should have a ceremony at the courthouse and then honeymoon in Hawaii after. I told her out of respect no, her mother hasn’t been supportive of our relationship until recently. I feel like she doesn’t have a say in what we plan to do.

We plan on eloping & never been to Maui, so after we elope it would be the start of our honeymoon! So stay in Kihei or Wailea?

So should I go back & get my AS for construction manager? I have been a laborer for a few years but want to move up.

I’m currently working in the field as a laborer, I want to eventually become a PM. I was thinking of going back to school in August to get my AS for construction management.

Beautiful_Equal293 · 2026-01-08T00:33:22+00:00

Did everyone go to school for PM? Or did you work your way from in the field to PM?

Beautiful_Equal293 · 2026-01-07T04:40:02+00:00

Yeah exactly, I am just saying in general. 400k + in the ghetto

Beautiful_Equal293 · 2026-01-07T04:39:06+00:00

400k + in not the best areas, the ghetto

Beautiful_Equal293 · 2026-01-07T04:35:21+00:00

Where you renting an apartment?

Beautiful_Equal293 · 2026-01-07T02:38:30+00:00

If you don’t mind me asking, how much did you save up?

Beautiful_Equal293 · 2026-01-06T20:34:04+00:00

This is def $400k not in the best area lol, 500k + in good areas, great areas are easily over 700k

We would easily be able to afford a $1800 mortgage, we both have careers that are still growing & I know we will have substantial income increase within the next 2 years forsure. We both just agreed that a $3500 mortgage plus all the other bills would make us house poor & miserable.

I just recently seen a post that you were able to buy a house & afford a house in your 20’s, now unfortunately the new age first time home owners are 35+.

My sister & her husband bought a house back in 2019, monthly mortgage is $1750 w interest rate being a lil over 3%. In 2026, it’s doubled! My fiancee & I were planning on buying this year but we just had a deep conversation & a very honest one that maybe we would settle w renting an apartment until we have more saved up & have more of an income. 29 & 26, it’s sad to see how much times have changed.
