I can't pretend that this isn't happening anymore. I need to talk to Charles I guess but it just seems like if I do that then I have to accept that I'm going to have to marry a boy I barely know. Not that Charles seems like a bad guy from what I've seen but ~~he's not Josh~~ I don't know if I'm ready for this.

Private to Charles
I'm supposed to ask you if you would like to spend Hogmanay with my family. Personally, I'd like to spend a little time getting to know each other a bit more. This engagement thing still feels weird to me but if we're going to do it I want to get to know you better.

Private to Annie and Ava
Ugh. I'm engaged and I can't shake this crush on Josh. Stupid family. Not that he would like me anyway.

Secret Santas were a fab idea. Major props to the mastermind and her minions for this one.

	Charles seems like a decent enough sort. But the idea of marrying someone I don't really know, even if it won't be for years probably, is kind of scary. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I can't even imagine. My parents would never arrange a marriage for either of us. If you have years then you still have a chance to snog Josh first. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I guess this is me paying for my mum getting pregnant before being married. They're making sure I marry into one of the Scottish clans. I feel like I'd be cheating on Charles. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	No one should pay for that. My mum's parents never got married and they're happier for it. But maybe I just don't understand Pureblood stuff. I don't think it counts as cheating when you're in a relationship without consent. But I would probably feel weird in the same situation too. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I don't know if it's widespread pureblood stuff or clannish pureblood stuff. The whole thing feels weird. I don't know how to turn off my regular liking of boys when I don't have feelings for Charles, at least I don't yet. We're going to talk after the Quidditch game so hopefully things will be clearer then. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I don't either. I wish I could tell you how but normally when I fancy someone I make a move. And if I don't...I just wait for it to go away eventually. Hopefully the plan will be that you cheer him up after we win. (Reply to this) (Parent)

My parents never married, either, but I have other family members whose marriages have been arranged. There are a lot of different ways to have happy relationships.

I agree with Annie -- it could be weird, but I don't think it'd count as cheating, either. I mean, it's something you and Charles could probably talk about together, agreeing on boundaries for now. I wouldn't write off the possibility of the two of you both exploring relationships and feelings with other people, as long as you're both on the same page about it.
