One of the girls I know at work sent an email today where she mentioned that she had gotten engaged yesterday.
I didn't expect her to keep me abreast of developments on her personal front, for we are not that close friends. But I somehow expected that when she had such a great news to share, I would have received it a bit personally.
If she had even sent an email - even a one-liner - with me in the To list, I guess I'd have been more elated. While I am still happy for her - she's in general a good kid - it has somehow not gone well with me that I got the notification in a bcc mail.
What was worse - the reply to my congrats was also in bcc!!!
Actually, the whole incident has me wondering if I was so egoistic that I am focusing more on how I received the news rather than the news itself? Or is it a case where I had unduly high expectations on people - something that I have been unable to change in spite being repeatedly proven otherwise?

Maybe she was sending "bcc"s to all the "Bright Cute Chaps" at work, and it was a hidden message kind of thing... You know, the female mind is a mysterious 1.3 pounds.
Ha ha!!! I dont think she sent it to Bright Cute Chaps coz I know quite a few others, who got the mail, who will not fall under that category.
