Okay, so I was on Facebook last night and saw that my boyfriend's brother is engaged to his girlfriend (on her page). She isn't a friend of mine on there but I can view her page since she's in my network. She adds my boyfriend as a friend but not me when it clearly says he's in a relationship with me on there
But anyway! So the boyfriend hasn't told me that they are engaged..not one word. I don't know if he thinks I'm going to be upset about it or what. Or maybe he feels bad that we aren't engaged yet, I'm not sure how men think about these things. We've been together for 5 years and 2 months while they(his brother) have been together a year and a half, I think (It hurts that everyone around me is getting married and everyone I know except one set of friends has been dating/engaged in less time than we've been together...maybe thats the reason why he won't tell me. He thinks I'll be upset). And its not like he wouldn't know about it happening. His brother lives here in the same town with us and he eats lunch with him once a week. Also his mom called him the other night but he had to go into the other room to talk to her, which I found strange, unless it was because I had the TV on watching the Olympics.
No one telling me these things just kind of makes me feel like I'm not part of the family not to know about it. My sister thought it was weird that he hasn't said anything to me about it (I told her about it last night and how he hasn't mentioned it). And I'm thinking they got engaged in Ireland because they bought him a t-shirt from the Guinness brewery and brought it back here this weekend (Hey I like beer too, where is my shirt!?
). He wouldn't say why they went to Ireland either when I asked (this was on Monday, I think). He frustrates me sometimes. So should I just sit back and pretend that I have no clue about it and act suprised later? Hell, they might not even tell me. I was eventually going to find out anyway, it might have been a few months though until I did find out. If I sound whiney in this post I didn't mean to be! I just think its odd he isn't telling me things/being honest with me about it.
