This Outrageous Engagement Announcement Went Viral On Twitter For All Of The Blatant Red Flags
This Twitter user, @AtomAtkinson, posted the most outrageous engagement announcement that was published in her parent’s local newspaper.
It begins like a typical announcement and introduces Dr. Matthew Johnson and Jennifer Bair Cullen– the happy couple.
They are planning to get married next February. It also dives into the couple’s backgrounds– Matthew is a professor, historian, and author, whereas Jennifer is a behavior specialist. It also mentions that Jennifer has a son named Colton.
This is where the announcement starts to take a turn.
First, the son Colton is said to be “thankful to his stepfather for the genuine loyalty, honesty, and protection that neither he nor his mother have ever known before.”
The sentiment may sound genuine at first, but the couple’s description of themselves becomes increasingly strange after that.
“As a diamond is produced only under intense heat and pressure, Jennifer’s beauty derives from enduring decades of narcissistic attempts to defeat her virtue and crush her spirit,” the announcement reads.
“These sociopathic attacks backfired. Matthew is ecstatic to be the only man adequately equipped to satiate Jennifer’s long-unsatisfied yearning for romantic attention, affection and love.”
That got very deep, very quickly. Matthew’s description afterward is just as puzzling.

“Similarly, as gold is refined only through intense heat and flame, Matthew’s strength of will derives from enduring decades of pathological contempt, deceit and hypocrisy. They failed to break him,” they wrote.
Jennifer is also described as “overjoyed” to provide her future husband with “the unconditional love, undying respect and gratifying intimacy like no man has ever experienced.”
The final sentence is the most ironic. While most of the announcement’s readers are shaking their heads, the couple wrote, “To put it simply: They won.”
It’s clear that they believe this, but the Twitter community thinks very differently.
The viral Tweet received fifty-five thousand likes and tons of replies.
“Found some decorations for their wedding,” wrote one user, who included numerous red flag emojis.
“I hope their new home has a spare bedroom for all the baggage they are bringing to the marriage,” commented another user.
The original Tweeter also dove deeper into the couple’s history. Apparently, Matthew is the editor of an anti-Semitic organization and is very homophobic. That sadly explains this horrendous announcement.
