    So I was on the bus today headed home from work reading a book.

    A very pretty woman was sitting across from me. Granted she was very pretty and I was not wearing any makeup, plus I'm also I'm aon the plus side.

     

    So anyway she  reaches across the aisle and taps my hand. She asks me "Is that an engagement ring?"

    "Yes" I reply waiting to hear a congratulatons as I usually do.

    "It's a great ring" she says.

    "Thanks" I say

    Then she says to me "I can't understand why you are engaged. I'm so much hotter than you" and then got off the bus.

     

    I was so hurt. I mean how can someone say that.

    Sorry for this post, I just needed to vent a little.

    WTF. That girl has serious insecurity issues. That is insulting, but take pride in knowing that you're not an angry, bitter, sad girl. 

    I cannot believe that someone would have the audacity to say such a thing. 

    She may never get engaged with that kind of karma.

    That sucks. I know it was super hurtful, but it sounds to me like she's jealous and feeling sorry for herself. She probably justcot dumped for being a shallow b*tch

    Wow. I think it's pretty clear why she's not engaged! I can't believe someone would actually say that.

    Seriously?

    This woman obviously had underlying issues - either unhappily single or unhappily waiting. Don't take it personally.

    Um, what? That is incredibly hurtful! Though I have to say, with comments like that, it's no surprise that she's not engaged. You can be hot, but if you're a mean person, I don't think many people will be lining up to proprose to you.

    I would have laughed my ass off.  She couldn't have been that pretty if she was insecure enough to put down a complete stranger.

    and that is EXACTLY why you're engaged and she's not...I don't know many men that would be able to tolerate someone like that for very long let alone forever...don't let her make you feel bad!

    @Otaqueen:  omg I cannot believe this! Being HOT has nothing to do with finding someone to love. Ugh, she obviously has major issues. I am sure that you are a very beautiful woman and you clearly are a better person than her! She probably wont be loved anytime soon with that attitude even if she is so "hot". UGH..

    It really astonishes me how mean people can be. I am so sorry she said that to you, I would be really hurt too.

    I'll say what she SHOULD have said - Congratulations on your engagement!

    Don't mind her. She just set it up as a competition, lost, got upset and left.

     

    You win!

     

    Besides, you never know what's going on with her. Don't take it as anything that has to do with you.

    @Otaqueen:  WTF?!?!?! That's not okay! I would have followed her off the bus and punched her! What a *&*(#!!! Clearly she has some serious issues. Okay, my secondary more reasonable response would have been "Clearly you're not engaged because you're a huge &^%^"

    Wow.  I don't understand people these days.  What is wrong with them?!

     

    Don't let her get to you.  Like everyone is saying.  She is just insecure and feels the need to put people down to make herself feel better.

    OMG I just laughed out loud at the audacity of that girl. Who the hells says something like that outloud? I mean it is one thing to think it during a moment of insecurity...but to say it??? Wow.

    It was an insult but purely to make herself feel better about her current single status. I wouldn't take it to heart....you are the one that is engaged to the man of your dreams.

    yah, you totally win.  that is probably one of those situations where you walk away thinking of all the things you SHOULD have said.  But in the long run, you are obviously prettier than her INSIDE and OUT.

    No wonder why she has nobody in her life!!!!  What a... well, you know!  I'm sure you must have been stunned by her rudeness, but she deserved a punch to the ovary.  Just know that you are loved and clearly, she isn't.

    As the previous posters have already said, it's obvious why she isn't engaged yet. Too bad you didn't get the chance to inform her.

    My jaw just dropped - WOW.  Just wow.    

    I hope you honestly didn't experience any hurt feelings because of this.  I hope you laughed and continue laughing about it.   Make this a favourite story and just keep laughing about it.  What a ridiculous excuse for a human being with clearly no sense of self-worth.  I actually feel sorry for her - she's so superficial she only puts stock into outward appearance.  Clearly she won't get far in life with that attitude.   

    Don't let this affect you in the slightest - like I said, laugh about it.  She's ridiculous.
