Engagement

I just read that Nicole Richie and Joel Madden are engaged. Now this doesn't affect my life one bit. It is not like I have to buy a gift or lose weight before the wedding. My reaction to this announcement is "Why?". They have two children. How long have they lived together? Just get married. If you don't know by now if you are compatible then you should not have had a second child. I think engagements are for people who have no children together. Maybe I need to consult an etiquette book. Now that I have read this I know I won't be invited to the wedding.
