What are you looking for?

Sorry, the engagement is off.

The Scene: I enter the house and Mike says “Man, I heard some crazy news from back home about you. People are saying you are engaged!”

Wha?

Dana calls Mike asking if I’m engaged. Turns out Dana saw Jen in town and she said I was engaged. Jen said she heard from her mom. Jen’s mom works at the optometrist that my mom goes to.

Boom. Somehow Mom has been saying I am engaged.

I decide to phone her.

After much laughter we realize that either Jen’s mom, or Jen TOTALLY mixed up the fact that I have a girlfriend.

MEN, heed my warning! Don’t even say you have a girlfriend! People may think you’re engaged!

The funniest part of this story is when Mom says “Congrats on your engagement!” over the phone and I hear Dad in the background saying “What? Ryan’s engaged?”. HA!

    LOL! That’s hilarious!

    I keep getting asked by family members when I’m going to get engaged BUT for them to take it one step further by saying that you ARE engaged is hilarious! I love it! Great story, Ryan!

    BTW, when are you going to get engaged? I think Vero is a great catch!
