Love: Today, my sister asked me if I was going to be getting married...

By Anonymous - 16/06/2012 19:03 - Canada - Edmonton

Today, my sister asked me if I was going to be getting married "for real" this time, because she didn't want to waste her money like she did on my previous engagement. The reason that one didn't work out in the first place is because she slept with my fiancé. FML

Today, I announced my engagement. My mother's response was to freak out and demand that I postpone my wedding indefinitely. Why? My younger sister caught the bouquet at a wedding last year, so "she has to get married first!" My sister has been single for 3 years and showers once a week. FML

Today, I was supposed to get married. Instead, my sister made up a story about me cheating on my fiancé at the bachelorette party. He bought it and dumped me, despite there being no evidence of this. Turns out it was all a plan because they were secretly seeing each other for months. FML

Seething jealousy

Today, my sister, who has been seeing a guy for a year, got engaged. I've been dating my boyfriend for over 5 years and let out some not so subtle hints and he basically refused to propose. This is her second marriage in the time of my relationship. FML

How can I make this about me?

Today, my sister announced that she just got engaged… right as I was in the midst of giving birth to my twin daughters. The thing is, she's not actually engaged. In fact, she's single. She just couldn't stand that I was "upstaging" her and "had to think of something fast." FML

Today, my sister got married. For the second time. She's 30. Two men have loved her enough to cry over their vows to her. Every single person there asked me why I wasn't married yet. FML

Today, my sister broke up with her boyfriend of 4 years because he hadn't "popped" the question. I've just spent the last 2 months helping him plan the perfect proposal. FML

Today, I found out that my fiancé's sister, who only got engaged a couple of months ago, is getting married before us. I wouldn't have a problem with this if she wasn't planning her wedding to be exactly like ours will be. FML

Today, I'm planning my big sister's wedding. My long-term, live-in boyfriend walked by and saw me looking at the wedding tab on Pinterest, smirked, and said, "Don't get your hopes up." I had. FML

Today, my sister made her engagement official on Facebook. When I shared the post to spread the word, people didn't read her boyfriend's name, and I started getting questions on why my sister and I were getting married. FML

Today, I found my sister's wedding book. Inside it was a list of potential grooms; she'd written down all of my ex-boyfriends. And my fiancé. We're getting married in three weeks. FML

You should say, "I don't know, do you plan on being a **** this time?"

What a *****. Just don't invite her, she might end up at the honey moon. Don't let her ruin it for you.

Inform that bitch that it will not cost her any money because she won't be involved in it. Obviously doesn't deserve to be there on YOUR special day.

Exactly. Let her know you don't need or want anythinng from her. I wouldn't uninvite her from the wedding, though. If it wasn't for her, you'd probably be married to a scumbag cheater instead of engaged to a loving and faithful man (knocking wood).

25, I believe the term you are looking for in "knock ON wood" I know it sounds similar when you hear it, so I don't blame you for your mistake.

64 - I would let that one slide. It's as simple as holding down one key for just a second too long, and it's not like 25 was speaking in text language.

76 I'm pretty sure that "Knocking Wood" is just the action form of "Knock on Wood". Who cares anyway? It's a figure of speech. If you're desperate to correct something, go fix "in" to "is" in your comment.

Where I'm from, they usual say "touch wood" or "knock wood"; no "on". I said "knocking" because that's what I was doing. Thanks for the correction but it was obviously a typo. I should've proofread better but I think the point of correction should be to educate (i.e. should of =/= should've). I know how to spell "anything" most days. :)

And you still call "that" a sister?! I agree with #8, be like "nope sorry I don't want any possible surprises from ***** this time"!

What a ho-bag... I don't get why anyone would sleep with their sibling's man/woman. It's almost incestuous. I couldn't sleep with my brother in law or my little sister's boyfriend. It's too weird.

Well, we know who one of your bridesmaids ISN'T going to be... Tell her to **** off to a strip club. Then she'll make back the money she lost and have all the men she can 'tease'.
