They were surprised, so am i.
Saw a photo of my brother's sis-in-law on a simple wedding dress, with the caption congratulating the couple.
I asked my bro's kids if they are aware, that their aunt.in Canada got married.
Surprise soup-rice!
They have no idea too.
I knew her, not just because she is my sis-in-law's sister, she was also my business partner a couple of years ago.
Business have to stop since i got into this.work and she became college.dean.
We both got busy.
Less than a year ago, she left for Canada.
That really surprise us that she married today.
One of my niece even said that it was just last week that they learned about their aunt having a boyfriend and now...husband.
Told them, their aunt is 40, and wanted to have a family, and it would be great to see their aunt growing old with someone and with a chance of having a "mestisa" or a "mestiso" cousin.
What these kids thinking is that, why they got married "agad-agad"(quickly).
That made me speechless.
How can i explain to these young kids about those stuff?
Just the matter of the heart, i told them. *And simply stands up pretending that i am busy*

At least you found out relatively quickly. One of my Filipino friends where I work was single when I started working there a year and a half ago. Suddenly she was married. No wedding pictures on line, no announcement. To this day I'm not even sure they had a formal ceremony. I didn't even know she had a serious boy friend. I'm happy for them though. I know she'd been looking for a serious long term relationship for a long time.

@Lucky15 No question there. They've both moved on to another job so I'm only connected through Facebook now.

@Lucky15 lol one day its normal day with friend and a month later I hear that friend has gotten married. Marriages here are a grand affair. I and my family were so shocked that we didn't even know or notice it. Seemed like a rush wedding. Reasons unknown.

Like a whirlwind romance? Let them be as long as they love each other (or comfortable with each other).
