I'm in a bit of shock right now because my friend just told me she's engaged again. You might think there's nothing wrong with that but she's only known the guy eight weeks. With her last husband they knew each other three weeks before they got engaged so I guess this is an improvement, lol.

 

I'm just worried because after the last time she swore she would never rush into anything like this again. It was only a few months ago that she told me she was a long way from ready for a relationship at all. I'm not upset that she broke a promise to me, but she broke a promise to herself and she's the one that will (potentially) get hurt.

 

I'm beginning to wonder whether she might have some issues around the whole engagement/marriage thing. She's really intelligent the rest of the time but has this tendency to lose all sense when it comes to romance. Does anyone think this is okay or am I just over-reacting? She's not just a friend - she's my little sister and I can't help worrying.

there are people who become blind in romance and dont think rationally and go to extreme measures to do just about anything when they are in "love". 3 / 8 weeks is too early... once bitten , twice shy.

i hope you & family take this issue seriouslly , advice her properly before she does it cause she will if you dont do anything about it.

I'll keep a close eye on her.

 

Actually this will be her third marriage. I once had to physically drag her out of a car to stop her driving off when she was drunk. That was easy. There are some stupid things you can't stop people doing (or you can try but they'll hate you for it).
