The closest I came to think about the topic was when I once saw in the magazine the style of a dress I would like to get married in and I embarked in an imaginary competition with my sister and best friend, they also wanted to use the same dress, (15 years later, some or a lot of kilos after, when in effect I put on the white dress, it didn\u2019t even cross my mind for obvious reason to use that style of dress).<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_393\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-393\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"https:\/\/solkes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/1608_02-5.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-393\" src=\"https:\/\/solkes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/1608_02-5.jpg\" alt=\" \" width=\"300\" height=\"482\" srcset=\"https:\/\/solkes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/1608_02-5.jpg 620w, https:\/\/solkes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/1608_02-5-187x300.jpg 187w, https:\/\/solkes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/1608_02-5-299x480.jpg 299w, https:\/\/solkes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/1608_02-5-374x601.jpg 374w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-393\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Carolina Armenta \u00a9 Solkes<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>After a while, I don\u2019t exactly remember when \u2013 or if I was with my initial boyfriend who I dated all through college remained and lasted a long time- if you ask my superego of back then, which sees things somewhat prudent and at a realistic distance, it will say this relationship lasted more than it should have. Well, we made a bet between my friend, my sister, and myself that <strong><span style=\"color: #138a8d;\">whoever got married first would invite the other two to an all-expenses-paid trip.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>From that moment on, I had faith in myself. I thought that even though they were younger they would get married a long time before I would, to the contrary I wouldn\u2019t have made the bet. I think that in my head, the fact that I wasn\u2019t going to get married soon made perfect sense, and maybe without even saying it I might never get married.<\/p>\n<p>Note to the margin, for those who gossip and are asking themselves what happened: in effect, the two of them got married before me and I am still waiting for my promised trip, the excuse: \u201cWe did the bet because you were with that guy and you were older than both of us so we swore for obvious reasons you would be the first to get married from the three of us\u201d.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"dropcap dropcap2\" style=\"color: #138a8d;\">T<\/span>ime kept passing by and I saw so many failed marriages and so many social events where the only ones that seemed unhappy were the bride and the groom. Those who were in debt for years to come because they wanted to please the guests, to think that probably more than half of them, they didn\u2019t even know or didn\u2019t even like, every minute I convinced myself that that wasn\u2019t for me.<\/p>\n<p>The idea of pleasing the guests was on the correct path, but to hope this would only be with the served banquettes, was a huge mistake. Weddings provide an excuse for a number of unemployed people to criticize everything from beginning to end: the food, the bride&#8217;s dress, the groom&#8217;s face, the groom&#8217;s mom, and if the dad of the bride went with his new acquisition or not.<\/p>\n<p>The couple makes a great effort, they pay millions, and they search for the best and most exclusive places to invite a lot of people due to social commitment and in the meantime, the happy guest criticize and compare it with the last wedding they said they went to, but probably only saw in magazines.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_394\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-394\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"https:\/\/solkes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/1608_03-5.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-394\" src=\"https:\/\/solkes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/1608_03-5.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"482\" srcset=\"https:\/\/solkes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/1608_03-5.jpg 620w, https:\/\/solkes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/1608_03-5-187x300.jpg 187w, https:\/\/solkes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/1608_03-5-299x480.jpg 299w, https:\/\/solkes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/1608_03-5-374x601.jpg 374w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-394\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Carolina Armenta \u00a9 Solkes<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Let\u2019s say that the <strong><span style=\"color: #138a8d;\">relationships that I had during my 20\u2019s and 30\u2019s weren\u2019t really characterized to be functional<\/span><\/strong> and it didn\u2019t help that in my mind I would have to concentrate and plan a wedding, it was out of reality.<\/p>\n<p>I was diagnosed with a syndrome that many of us women suffer during this age, <strong><span style=\"color: #138a8d;\">when I was alone for a long time, the more independent I became<\/span><\/strong>, I enjoyed more my freedom and didn\u2019t want to get close anywhere that smelled like commitment.<\/p>\n<p>My friends, they were convinced, all gradually, that there wouldn\u2019t come a day when they would see me step into a church or get married in one. My family didn\u2019t tell me, but they had the same perspective and were a bit the same and had given up.<\/p>\n<p>My mom always told me since I was very young that she thought I would marry quickly. Which meant that I would meet someone and within months would go to the altar, she was right about that. But given that there were no \u201cviable prospects\u201d in the world, she had to make peace with the idea: I was going to be the fun aunt, who traveled across the world, who knew and enjoyed, but especially the one that nothing nor no one would hold her back.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile the few times I thought about marriage, the ceremony itself if it ever happened, was to be completely distanced from any social convention: I was not up for such \u201cridicule\u201d and said I wanted to marry wearing jeans in a village near the town with only family and close friends. All of them would-be told at the very last minute at the last minute thinking that in this way it would only be me and those who really wanted to be there and they had endeavored to do so.<\/p>\n<p>From this romantic that never came to be, something wonderful remained: <strong><span style=\"color: #138a8d;\">the way that my hand was asked in marriage.<\/span><\/strong> We were in Villa de Leyva, the town wherein a joking manner I just said it was where I was going to get married and after several \u2026 perhaps after many margaritas with my boyfriend we decided to make a joke to the people close to me and tell them on the phone that the real reason we had traveled was precisely to make get married in secret but at the last minute I had regretted being alone and wanted the people closest to my affections to accompany me.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_395\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-395\" style=\"width: 996px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/solkes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/1608_04-5.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-395\" src=\"https:\/\/solkes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/1608_04-5.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"996\" height=\"601\" srcset=\"https:\/\/solkes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/1608_04-5.jpg 996w, https:\/\/solkes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/1608_04-5-300x181.jpg 300w, https:\/\/solkes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/1608_04-5-768x463.jpg 768w, https:\/\/solkes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/1608_04-5-320x193.jpg 320w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 996px) 100vw, 996px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-395\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Foto: Carolina Armenta \u00a9 Solkes<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>There were all kinds of reactions: the strict friend who got brave and refused to be part of this madness, aunt matchmaker who assured me that would accompany me but she tried to persuade me that there was no need for it to be hidden, the friend who cried at the other side of the phone and even reaching arming trip and pack her new boyfriend on the bandwagon who just saying aren\u2019t you sure there probably just playing a joke on you and she replied: \u201cHey you do not know Juana, she is able, of course, it is possible, Let\u2019s go!\u201d The joke went on, we laughed to no end and the next thing I remember is my boyfriend kneeling on the stone plaza of the town saying that he liked the feeling of announcing and wanted to marry me.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_396\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-396\" style=\"width: 996px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/solkes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/1608_05-2.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-396\" src=\"https:\/\/solkes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/1608_05-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"996\" height=\"601\" srcset=\"https:\/\/solkes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/1608_05-2.jpg 996w, https:\/\/solkes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/1608_05-2-300x181.jpg 300w, https:\/\/solkes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/1608_05-2-768x463.jpg 768w, https:\/\/solkes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/1608_05-2-320x193.jpg 320w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 996px) 100vw, 996px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-396\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Foto: Carolina Armenta \u00a9 Solkes<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>In the times of social media and of immediate information, after I accepted, we went to sleep our hangover away, thinking, sleeping would be an option. <strong><span style=\"color: #138a8d;\">People started calling and asking all kinds of questions and sent a lot of messages<\/span><\/strong> that we didn\u2019t know how to answer them and we didn\u2019t know when the matrimony would be.
