Today, I found out the girl who ghosted me a month ago is engaged. Not only is she engaged, but she is in an arranged marriage. And not only is she going to be married, but she still has feelings for me. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I found out that my ex-girlfriend got engaged to a coworker. I got her the job. FML
Today, I was invited to an engagement. My crush is getting engaged next month to a man she told me she hated. FML
Today, my fiancée handed me her engagement ring back and told me she felt like she's pressuring me into marriage, so to make me feel better about it we’re no longer engaged. On top of this, I found out she’s started talking to her ex again. FML
Today, I found out my ex is getting married. She only left me 8 months ago. FML
Today, I met up with my 'on again, off again' girlfriend of 4 years that I'm still madly in love with. We've been broken up for a few months and she's been dating someone else. We talked about possibly trying things again. When I got home, I found out she's engaged. FML
Today, it hit me hard that the girl I love is not still not interested after a year. She's now ghosting me, and she hangs out with my friends daily. She constantly talks about dating in front of me and only text/calls me when I post shorts/stories hanging out with other girls, just to pull me back in. FML
Today, I logged on Facebook and saw my friend who'd been engaged, then broke the engagement, then got back together announce their new wedding date: three days before my wedding. She also sent me a message asking if I'd move my date. We've been planning our wedding for two years. She got engaged six months ago. FML
Today, I found out the guy I've been dating for 5 months is engaged to his girlfriend of 3 years. I found out as we were talking, waiting for him to come outside after work. FML
Today, I'd thought that I'd found the new love of my life. She wanted me, I wanted her, we were compatible on so many levels. I have known her for 15 years, and she had asked me on a date. Last night, she unfriended, blocked, and ghosted me. FML
Today, I found out that my fiancé has been lying about where she lives to avoid me. I think she's also sleeping with who was supposed to be the best man at our wedding. FML

I mean I feel for the guy, this sucks for him too. Its a lot worse for her for sure but seeing someone you like 1 with someone else, and 2 against their will skins heartbreaking

It says she's being forced into a life she doesn't want, if what OP said is true. I feel for her.

It didn't say that. We don't know their culture. She can't manage a sneaky text or DM to him? Not so sure of her "feelings" for him.

No, the "ghosting" says her parents forced her to give them her cell phone while they were arranging this marriage.

Doesn't she have human rights? Can't she back out of the marriage? It's her life not her parents or her in-laws. She should've have a say in that. Tell her that you still want to be with her

In many cultures, arranged marriages are normal. People I know who've been married in arranged marriages do generally get to say no, but the parents still pick the potential partners to accept or decline. In more traditional families, there is huge cultural pressure to accept such an arranged marriage, even when they move to western countries where there is no strict requirement. Social pressure can be a huge motivating factor. (Would you feel pressure if your parents, siblings, and friends would all disown you for such a decision). Though worse, in many countries, in some families they don't really even get the choice, and their human rights don't really play into the equation. It's often not legal sanctioned, but the law doesn't really matter to some people. OP doesn't say where they live.
