double bonus dear prudence chat q: the thought of planning for and getting married literally makes her nauseous

Relationship
Dear Prudie, I have a rather bizarre problem for you. I have been with my boyfriend for almost two years and we've discussed marriage/engagement quite a bit. Most women would be excited about moving in that direction, however, every time this topic comes up, I get completely nauseous. The first time this happened was while in a bookstore a few months back. I was looking for a cooking mag, and when I walked by the bridal magazines, I started feeling sick. I am in my late 20's, and I live with my boyfriend, and while a part of me doesn't want to have to "start all over again" I wonder if this is some "gut feeling" that I am with the wrong person because I have always wanted to get married. My relationship with my boyfriend is generally great, however we have had some problems in the past and like most couples worked through them. Some of our "issues" made me wonder if he and I were even right together because the root of these problems involved basic differences in our personalities. I haven't told my boyfriend about my bridal nausea, and no, I am not someone who is just obsessed with expensive weddings. What should I do? thank you, Bride to not be?
