Oh god I feel ya! I'm way too afraid to check the relationship updates...
Hey, it's totally normal to feel jealous or resentful. That doesn't make you a bad person! I think most women feel that way if they have been waiting for a while or are ready to take their relationship to the next level. But yes, it WILL be you someday! And then some girl can be super jealous of your engagement and your ring and your hot finace. :)
A friend just LITERALLY posted hers. I wasn't expecting a christmas proposal, but it just does rub the wrong way. They started dating in MAY. THIS YEAR!.... sigh.
I feel for you. I just got engaged a few weeks ago but I was in your shoes last Christmas and I hated seeing all those status updates. Keep your head up, it will be you soon :)
I went thru that feeling when I was not engaged. I knkow its hard but just have faith it wil be you and then another girl can be jealous. Hang in there!
ugh. i've had literally 8 facebook friends get engaged the last 3 days. it has gotten ridiculous.
It'll definitely be your post someday!! Christmas eve and Christmas I had quite a few great girls on my FB post about their engagements. I do get jealous of it too, because I definitely wish it was me...but I'm sure they're just as excited as I would be.
@love108: That's irritating.
@mermaideve: Don't worry, it is totally normal to feel like that! Just wait 'til EVERYONE YOU KNOW is pregnant and having babies and posting incessantly on fb. That's next. :P
Argh. I feel awful about it...but I can't even be at all excited when someone on facebook get engaged. It should be me!! Even when it's someone I really like, I honestly cannot bring myself to say "congratulations" because I am so irritated that it's not me. Oh and if they have been dating for less time than me and my bf, (which is almost always the case) than I am even more annoyed. It's everywhere....I feel like everytime I go on FB, someone else, not me :(, is getting a dang ring!!!
One of my friends posted a couple days before Christmas. Facebook announcements always suck! Here's to hoping it will be soon for you though!
Aw thats sad that so many women feel this way, it will be your day one day
I feel like everyday I go on Facebook and there are people posting about how they just got engaged...you just have to remember, one day that will be you and there will be people who are in the same place you are right now. We just need to be patient and we will get ours soon too! 
Everyone should get to have their own time in the spotlight. Last year it was me, getting engaged and having the wedding. And now my twin sister gets her turn again as she's just announced she's pregnant with their first child.
I think it was only hard for me when a girl I knew growing up in church--who's about 6 years younger than me-- announced her engagement and then got married about a month before me.
I thought I left a message but it seems to have not posted. Another one engaged this morning. It feels like all these guys have their stuff together, but I realize that's an outsider perspective. Maybe all these girls had to get their guys thinking? I don't know.... sigh.
I totally understand!!! My best friend (since middle school) just told me her boyfriend asked her to move in. I acted excited, but all I could think was "If you get engaged before me, I'll murder you in your sleep." Waiting doesn't really bring out the best in us, does it? I think it's okay as long as you keep it to yourself (or keep it to Wedding Bee!!).
Don't worry, you'll be the object of jealousy soon!!!!
I am so frustrated with SO. He was a mess over Christmas. He has Asperger's which definitely makes him function in a different way. Uggghhhh!!!!!
I totally can relate to this...when I was in limbo it seemed like it was Engagement Season on FB, there were like 8 giant ring pictures on my homepage in like a month's time! It's OK to be disappointed that it's not your news, just make sure you show nothing but happiness for your friend and post your vents here where it's safe 
@Juliepants: omg, amen. All of my friends ARE gettIng pregnant and posting crap about it on FB incessantly, while I haven't even managed to get ENGAGED. It is soooo annoying. What makes it worse is that now that THEY are all having babies, those are the questions they are asking SO and I now. Not "when are you getting married?" anymore, no no. Now they've completely skipped us getting married and they're asking us if we want kids or not. Well, um, if you really want to know, I'm not too terribly concerned about pushing anything out of my vagina until there is a ring on my finger and I have me some health insurance! Thanks for asking friends! They really make me want to go hide in a cave sometimes..

Flock a duck! A totally worthy awesome wonderful person posted her engagement on FB this morning. I am somehow only marginally happy for her. Let it be ME!
