Cousin announces engagement on Facebook. Everybody under the sun offers congratulations except......

[Anonymous]

Stop being a shit-stirrer, OP.

[Anonymous]

Christ you sound like a torment.

[Anonymous]

You sound like a total drama queen, OP.

Good, God. The stupid. It burns. Read the fucking subject line, pp.

To OP -- why do you care so much? I'm not detecting genuine concern from your tone. My guess is OP did, in fact, tell sister beforehand. Your preoccupation with this is really strange.

I'm pretty sure OP judges divorced people, or at least this divorced sister, as being broken and incapable of genuine happiness for others. She's basically looking for evidence to write off this divorced sister as a bitter hag.

Get a life, OP.

Clearly, you have way too much time on your hands - and need to stay off FB.

Only you know. I don't even usually do social media things for my sister on her bday. Because we talk basically daily anyway, so she knows that I said happy birthday or congrats or whatever over facetime already!

This. Siblings talk other than on facebook, can you imagine that, OP?

[Anonymous]

Wow you don't have much to do

[Anonymous]

OP do you have a sister? Probably not

Well, I didn't comment on my sister's engagement on facebook because I FREAKING CALLED HER ABOUT IT! I comment on posts about pets, vacations, whatever because they don't warrant a phone call.

I can practically hear OP salivating over the potential for drama.

Exactly why I asked OP if she had a sister. I would call after reading the post.

The sisters have communication that OP is not privy to.

It has now been almost a month since the engagement announcement on Facebook.
Still nothing from her sister.
Her sister is a frequent commenter on the page. She is no stranger to the page by any means.
An engagement is a life changing event.

Am I reading too much into this?

Maybe she did it privately. Why the need to read anything into it? Not your business.

I agree. Could've already spoken. Could be grieving. Could be other sibling rivalry issues. Who knows.

My brother and I talk 2-3 times a week. We almost never comment on each other's stuff on FB.

Everybody likes to talk shit about millennials and social media but I can almost guarantee OP is a 40-something woman.

This is so ridiculous. Facebook is not real life.
