Not Engaged Yet

I'm a lurker, but I made an account to say this.

I can't believe some of you girls on this website are planning your wedding before being engaged. Don't you think there is a reason that your boyfriend won't propose to you? He's probably terrified of what you will become if you already aren't patient enough to wait until the proposal to begin to plan your wedding!

This site is for engaged people, not for people wanting to play bride. You're wasting your time. As for the post beneath this one, about "Does your boyfriend know if you're on the knot," if it freaks him out that you're on his site, you should get off of it! You're only scaring him away. He will soon see how crazy you are and run for the hills!

It's pitiful. Get a life!

    BAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHA!  Instead of focusing on being high and mighty, why don't you focus on becoming literate...because CLEARLY after "lurking" you still cannot read what it says in the STICKY on the top of NEY.

    Here't the link to that sticky again:

    You're clearly nothing more than a self-righteous biitch with an inferiority complex.  You came onto NEY and wrote this post, attempting to rip perfect strangers to shreds, for no other reason than to make yourself feel validated.  Grow up.  Oh, and go sell crazy some place else.  We're all stocked up here.  Wink

    I guess she missed all the posts, like the intro post, that discourage girls planning before they are engaged. Lurk better next time, genius. 

    Now be gone before someone drops a house on you.

    Well until TK stops giving people the option of creating an account as a bride, groom, bridesmaid, groomsman, event planner, etc. I think these people have every right to be on here. And if you were a lurker, I think you would know a lot of the ladies on NEY are NOT planning a wedding before they get engaged.

    You took the time to track several girls' posts, create an account and tell us all off.

    I have lurked on this board for a while now, and it so clearly obvious that all of these lovely ladies are not, and completely discourage, planning a wedding before you are engaged.

    You should probably lurk a bit more, and then you'll see how very wrong you are. They much more prefer talking about mashed potatos and engagement monkeys and things of that sort, which is much more hilarious. If you consider all of that wedding planning... well you're just crazy.

    SeaTea, you said you won't purchase until a year and a half out. That's YOUR wedding. From some other searching I did, it appears that you also have booked your venue and have a budget. Yet your boyfriend still won't propose... hmmm. Wonder why!

    What about this trainwreck of a thread from last month? I don't think that the only conversations here are about side dishes.

    Hi. You sound like a real peach.

    Guess what? I'm engaged. Guess what also? A few other girls on here? Engaged. And, even further, some are *gasp* married.

    Just because we're on the "Not Engaged Yet" board doesn't mean we're not all not engaged. Also, where in the title "Not Engaged Yet" does it constitute as "planning before the ring"?

    If the site is only for "engaged people", I guess there shouldn't be boards for moms and maids or students, eh?

    Moms and maids are at least helping to plan a wedding and the students board is for engaged people who are also students, not just students in general, so that's irrelevant to your point.

    Obviously my post was not aimed toward fellow engaged people.

    No I don't think that married people should be on here, that is what the nest is for! But at least they can get their man to commit.

    And GreenPepperBurger, I don't lose. Just because someone admits that they're crazy, doesn't make them any less.
