Then tell the happy couple exactly why you do not want to attend their engagement.
I told her I wasn't sure I would come because my relationship just ended and I don't want to be around coupled up people. I told her that when I was at her house last week, but then I started getting cute texts from the guy I had just went out with and I was like "ok I can do this, I am on the verge of having someone too!" and so I agreed to come but now I don't and I can't.
I mean realistically would it really matter if like 1 person can't come?
So you are "that girl." That girl that can't be happy for somebody else.
Seriously, don't go. We had a "that girl" at our wedding, and she broke down in tears and made a scene. About a year later she decided to go nuts and send rude facebook messages to my wife and her bridesmaids.
If you can't control your emotions, just don't go.

Hahahaha ummm ok I have emotional control. I am not going to do that, I will likely just sit there and text or play with my phone and then leave. A few other girls from my class will be there if I want to interact I can I'm sure. So no I will not be like your wife's friend who is in the corner crying lol. Realistically though have some sympathy for the girl I mean obviously she was likely going through a lot. And no I can't feel happy for her when she has been married before and obviously squandered it and now is doing it again 4 months later. Some of us just need 1 single opportunity. I would make 1 single opportunity work.
I just am not sure that going to this party has any benefit for me?
Benefit for you? You have GOT to be kidding. No one is THAT self-centered and narcissistic.
Not everything is about you.... and this engagement party is one of those.

I don't mean it like that. I mean it will likely do more harm than help for me. Why put myself in a position that is just going to be more hurtful than it will be enjoyable and helpful? Am I actually hurting them by not going? I don't think I am.
