I’m going to be maid of honor in my friend’s wedding, but I don’t believe that she is going to be happy with the man she’s marrying. He is not a bad man and will not ever hurt her, but I don’t think they’re really right for each other. I have reasons for this, but I won’t bore you with them. I’ve told her my concerns, and she is convinced she is doing the right thing.

My question is, how can I make my speech at the wedding without lying? I can’t say that I know they’ll be so happy together, etc., etc., because that would be a blatant lie. What else can I talk about that will spare me having to lie?
To Larmarine: You’ve got it quite backwards. I told her my concerns when they first got engaged (after they knew each other less than a year, by the way, and she has a VERY rocky relationship history), but she was decided, so I have respected her decision ever since. The reason I’m concerned that she may be marrying the wrong guy is BECAUSE I’m a real friend. If I didn’t really care about her I wouldn’t give a damn whether she would be happy in the future or not.
****NOTE****
One of the reasons I know they’re wrong together is because she doesn’t seem to love him that much! If she did, I would be thrilled, but she never talks about him except to complain, they bicker constantly, and at no point during their whole relationship have I seen her appear truly happy. She has NEVER told me how happy she is with him and how great he is, and she is the type to talk about that with everyone she meets. Normally she can’t stop gushing whenever she’s happy about anything, but she’s never done it once since they got together. I’m not disregarding her happiness, she actually doesn’t seem that happy!!
