When you have doubts about your relationship with your significant other, it’s important to listen to them. “Listen to your gut — if something feels off, it probably is,” Coleman said. “Couples entering marriage do not generally have these thoughts, because they are not the same as cold feet.”
Coleman also suggests digging a little deeper and talking to your partner, as well as your family and friends to see if they have any concerns. “Sometimes, others have critical information that they don’t reveal, due to a fear they will not be listened to or believed. Plus, they don’t want to alienate you or lose the relationship they have with you. But it’s important to see what they think, too,” she said.
