Engagement.

Sounds like she has bigger things to care about than you getting engaged, then.

And it sounds like you need to MYOB and not be spreading her business around town.

Yeah like how they hell she going to pass that background check. She's going through it, I know that.
It would be a waste of time, money, and school if it was ruined over him. I feel horrible for that situation. However, it was her choice too.

Wow, you are just a little pot stirrer aren't you? You should be blissed out that you are in Hawaii with your new fiance. Stay out of it, off the internet, and grab a drink!

Not saying that. She doesn't really want to be around the family and she obviously needs time alone.

HOLD UP

Are you including yourself in "the family"?  As in, her actual family? 

And when you say "there are now 5 of you so you had to move rooms" - did you horn in on this vacation bc of your engagement, or were you always scheduled to go?

No not at all. This was scheduled last year. I've been before all together.

I still haven't congratulated my "future sister in law" (we'll see) who almost got engaged at my wedding (thanks, MIL!). 

I only came in here to see if this was about me! lol

It might be lol.

I want to know how your sister found out about your engagement.  Did you or her brother tell her? Was it from an FB post?  I see nothing in your posts about you or your brother calling and telling her. Presumably, if you had actually told her, she would have said "Oh how nice, congratulations!" 

It sounds like she found out via social media or another person, and honestly, I would be incredibly hurt if I found out that way about a sibling's big news.  Maybe she's hurt that you guys didn't make the effort to tell her in person or at least give her a call.

My FI told his family at the same time. Group text, probably wasn't the best way but that's how they regularly stay in touch.

Are you going to stick around? If so, please change your username one of these times while you're on here and not enjoying Hawaii.

I'm enjoying my time at the resort laying out. I can spend my time how I'd like. TK or not.

Seems like a lot of TK to me...

So you didn't tell people individually, but you expect individual congratulations?

Congratulations on your engagement, OP!

...There, are you happy now?

MagicInk thing?

What'd I miss?

Or is it another one of those "we don't talk about it" things?

I am actually surprised it took this long for a DD. 

Do you still do puppies gifs on DD threads? If so, I went with a beach theme.

Even better - can we play 20 questions to find out??

I'd love to play 20 questions but really don't want a Wednesday lynching lol I've been called a bitch enough around here (granted, it's always been warranted) and I want to pretend like you people still like me haha

Hello dear! 

This reminds me of my days in England when we would go on a pheasant hunt. Those pesky birds would hide away in the foliage, so we would hire some drunk locals to go around with large sticks and BEAT all AROUND the BUSH where they were hiding, and they would all go flying into the air and I would shoot at them! I only hit the actual locals once or twice, most of the time I got a bird! Those hunts were the golden days. 

I already hate you  feel like saying bless your heart because of you are using lynching to describe a wedding message board, so might as well get out with it and stick by your accusations! Plus what tastes better than delicious gossip? 

Pheasant pie & Butterscotch, 

Mrs Frances

Can we please get back to who we think the other Catfish is?

Well, I know I'd be hurt if a sibling told me engagement news via a group text. But a group text does not necessarily call for everyone to respond immediately or give a call back.

As for catfishing, I'm lame.  I don't suspect anyone.  I don't pick up on any of these things.

Ever since the MagicInk/VulgarGirl thign went down, I've found myself being more and more suspicious... even about a semi-reg who I'd feel REALLY guilty about questioning if they were in fact real.

Me too. I ask KR for IP checks all the time. I think we're all on high alert. 

You can do that? Do they tell you (the mods) what they find? Because the person I'm suspicious of is well liked and I don't want to be lynched lol

You think this person is well liked. Just look at the MI situation. Most people thought she was well liked, but many people were suspicious of her.

I can't even think of anyone "well liked" enough to cause a virtual lynching.  I don't think there are really any teams right now, but maybe I'm oblivious.

ETA: But I'm glad it's not me! lol

Can we please stop using "lynching" to describe a group of women on a wedding planning message board? Because that is wildly inappropriate. 

Also, @loveislouder, "Lol I think someone is a catfish but I'm not going to say who someone please pay attention  to me" is AWing of the worst sort.

It's vaguebooking on a message board.

Exactly.

FFS just say who you think is a catfish!

The worst that can happen is the person laughs at you and is like, "Sorry to disappoint you, but I'm real."
