What are some reasons to keep your engagement under wraps at first?
Cupid’s Advice:
Getting engaged is a big step in your relationship, and sometimes there are factors that make you keep it under wraps before announcing to all of your friends and family. Here are a few:
1. Keep it special: Sometimes keeping the news of your pending nuptials a secret at first is a way to make it special between you and your partner. The knowledge the both of you have only with each other serves as a golden nugget of information you can blush over for a few days without getting accosted by those close to you.
2. Out of respect: Perhaps your sister’s wedding is right around the corner or a close friend is getting ready to welcome a baby. In order to refrain from taking the spotlight off of them, you may decide to wait to reveal your engagement.
3. To make sure: Once you announce your engagement, it’s a lot more drama-ridden down the road if you call it off. Take a few days post-proposal to think things over and make sure you feel comfortable with the situation before revealing your news.
