"   When you get engaged, you (okay, me) feel an inexplicable urge to tell the world. Which is probably why people update their Facebook relationship statuses like five seconds after the question gets popped. But there&amp;#039;s one person in particular who you might really want to tell about your new off-the-market-forever position: Your ex. You may even contemplate commenting on your own Facebook status update, tagging all of your exes for a little added FYI that now you guys will never, ever (ever!) get back together. Hah! (Hey, don&amp;#039;t you judge my silly, plot-filled daydreams.) Or, maybe you&amp;#039;ll just send your ex a text\u2014like Adam Levine did to his former flame Nina Agdal when he got engaged to Behati Prinsloo, as Page Six reported. (Nina is &amp;quot;heartbroken,&amp;quot; a source says.) Okay, so maybe he didn&amp;#039;t want Nina to find out via Us Weekly (or even Facebook) but I really don&amp;#039;t think it&amp;#039;s necessary\u2014or nice\u2014to specially inform your ex that you&amp;#039;re getting hitched. Sure, if you guys are BFF, go for it, but there&amp;#039;s no reason to send a &amp;quot;just so you know&amp;quot; message (email, text, or otherwise), no matter how much you might want to. Eventually, your ex will find out without you having to rub it in. Because, honestly, you don&amp;#039;t you &amp;quot;owe&amp;quot; your ex any kind of courtesy here\u2014if he wanted to put a ring on it, he would have.  Want more from Natasha? Follow her on Twitter or find her on Facebook. Photo: Getty Images "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
