I would!! My bff since 7th grade got engaged and I found on FB with every other joe schmo too. I warned him back in September that I better not find out online when he proposes..and he said I wouldn't. I was super disappointed to find out online...but still happy for him in the end, I did give him sh!t about it!

Re: Would you be mad??
If she posted it immediately and you saw it immediately then no.I mean not only did she have all of saturday to call you she had all of sunday as well.
I tried calling all of my friends and family when I got engaged and if I couldnt get a hold of them I texted them to let them know. I waited a long time before I posted on facebook.
I'd be upset.

Re: Would you be mad??
If your friend had your number, she should have called, whether it was the next day or the same day, even a text (because there's always that possibilty she tried calling and it went straight to VM).I would mention it, casually, and say 'You know, you should have called me, or even texted, I hate finding things out online like that'.
I feel more angry when I find out someone's pregnant on FB or when someone dies - I always think THAT, should be private. I told everyone right away I was engaged on FB, followed by a series of phone calls - so I'm kinda of guilty of this - however, it has been decided a long time ago that if and when I get pregnant, no one outside my absolute close relatives and 3 friends would know. I just think those are 2 different areas. Engagements are exciting and people can't help it, whereas pregnancies, people tend to be more discreet for a while. That's MHO.

Same here. And actually, I didn't even really need to call them since they all knew- my parents and everyone.

Re: Would you be mad??
Did she call you eventually? I would be hurt if that was the only way I would have known. If she still hasnt contacted you I'd be hurt tooI called/ bbmed/ texted my important people and then let them tell everyone else. That whole weekend was so overwhelming.
