My baby sister is engaged to be married! Her boyfriend proposed to her last month and she accepted. She told me, but she hasn't told our parents - and she doesn't plan on telling them for a while yet. :( I gotta keep my mouth shut about this until she finishes school! My parents like the guy, and they know how serious they are... but how am I gonna manage to keep this quiet? :crazy:

Can I tell them?

:lol:

Why doesn't she want to tell your parents right away? That's a good question. I'll tell you all another not quite a secret but it's pretty danged strange. My sister married a guy and didn't tell our folks for a few years! They didn't used to like the guy much. They do now, though. Anyway, is that weird or what?:eek:

Well tell your sister good luck!;)

lol, good luck to her, and good luck on keeping the secret :p :D

Cuz they'll freak out. She's only nineteen, but doesn't plan on getting married for at least another three years. I don't know when she'll get around to telling them - she'll probably tell them before she graduates though. They actually haven't known each other for that long - probably wants to warm them up to the idea.

BTW, I've never set eyes on this guy. He sounds like a good guy, but - well, I've never actually met him! She wants my opinion, I'm like - well... :rolleyes:

I hate keeping secrets!

A lot can happen in three years. Their love will either solidify or die. Either way, it was a good idea to keep it under wraps. Give it time to blossom or fade. Not to mention finish school!

You'll do fine! You live on the other side of the ocean, after all! If you need any additional assistance, ask, and I'll hold ya' down! ;)

I agree. At least with a long engagement I know they're not rushing into anything. :) But I'm only gonna be in Europe for another three weeks. Then I go home. Still, I'll be at a different school ;) Thanks! :wave:

Well, Im 19 myself, and I dont think my parents would like the idea of me being married or being engaged. Only because Im 19 and when your 14-17 how serious can relationships me? How long have they been going out?
