Just found out two of my classmates and friends from PT school got engaged. I am definitely incredibly happy for them.

But at the same time I'm very sad. They started dating almost a year after Steve and I started dating. And there is no engagement in sight for me. Or in the near future. I am jealous of my friends and I hate myself for it. *sigh*

21st century, girl! Go for it ;) Or, you know, buy those wedding dress magazines and leave them all over the apartment.

And don't hate yourself for your jealousy. It's good to know what you want in life, and okay to be jealous of those who already have it. Your happiness for them is genuine, and that's what matters <3

I told Steve ages ago if he didn't propose by the time we're 30 ill be be one down on one knee. :-) he doesn't think I have the guts to do it, lol. The jealousy has passed and now I'm just incredibly happy for them. And amused because one of them texted Steve with, and I quote, "You're next!"

Eh, don't be jealous. Almost all of my friends who were engaged or married in their mid-20s are divorcing now.

I'm not jealous anymore, thankfully. Some of my friends who married really young are divorced, too. I know we're being smart, financially, by waiting a little while. It'll happen when it happens. And engagement/marriage will not change the way I feel for him.

I know the feeling! It happened for me when people from Tory's med school started getting engaged. And I felt even worse because there was a huge question for me about whether or not we were even going to ever get married. Luckily we never made that mistake haha. I'm much happier now and everything has worked out. I know it will for you too, and I'm glad to read in the comments that you feel better about the whole thing now. *hug* miss you!
