"Save the Date reader Elizabeth is feeling a little overwhelmed ... Writes Elizabeth: My wedding is in six weeks. (Yay!!) I&amp;amp;#8217;m can&amp;amp;#8217;t wait, but I&amp;amp;#8217;m getting super-frustrated with people (some friends in particular) who only want to talk about the wedding. It&amp;amp;#8217;s exhausting! I know people are excited about it&amp;amp;#8212;and excited for me&amp;amp;#8212;but is there a way to deal with my friends who ask every single day about every little aspect of my wedding? Here are my thoughts: When all you&amp;amp;#8217;ve been thinking about is your wedding for the past year or so, it can start to make your brain hurt. In order to function in the real world, you mentally adjust so that you can also focus on work, your fiance, your family, and so on. But now that your friends have their invites and something to look forward to (soon!), they&amp;amp;#8217;re just starting to get excited. Can you blame them? To keep your head from exploding, try saying something to the effect of, &amp;amp;#8220;I&amp;amp;#8217;m kind of on wedding overload right now. Can we talk about something else?&amp;amp;#8221; Ask about their jobs or their boyfriends or upcoming vacations. They might assume that since it&amp;amp;#8217;s your wedding, you won&amp;amp;#8217;t want to talk about anything else. But if you show them that&amp;amp;#8217;s just not the case, they should get the hint. Another way to take the edge off: Take some &amp;amp;#8220;me&amp;amp;#8221; time in the weeks leading up to the wedding. Give yourself an hour (or even half an hour) every evening to relax and think about something non-wedding-related. Read a book, try a new nail color, watch some bad TV&amp;amp;#8212;whatever. Trust me, you&amp;amp;#8217;ll be a better bride on your wedding day if you spend a little time not in bride mode. Ladies, what do you think? Do you think Elizabeth needs to suck it up and talk wedding if that&amp;amp;#8217;s all her friends are interested in? Or do you think there&amp;amp;#8217;s a polite way to change the subject?
