My best friend has been dating this guy for only one month, he has only been broken up with his ex-fiance (which he was with for two years) for only 5 months.
He seems to like my friend alot, but to propose in less than two months, seems a little sudden, don't you think?
I left town for a week, to come home to find out he had proposed to her where we work at a bar, I don't know how serious he really was.
She is so excited, a mutual friend of ours, called him when we got home and asked him "are you getting married" his response was "who told you" and "well I proposed" that sounds a little doubtful to me, I don't want my friend to get hurt, should I tell her how I feel or should I just hope it all works out for them? I feel he is on the rebound, she beleives they are truely in love. Any advice would help.

You'll just have to be there for her. Don't say anything to her unless she asks you to. But be the best friend you can be. She will need you if things don't work out.

I say you talk to your friend and tell her how you feel. Let her know that you don't want for her to break it off, just hold off the engagement for a while. Sounds like this guy is really just on the rebound. If they are really in love he will wait for her. And most of all how long have they known each other. Maybe they really are in love, and have been able to find out everything about each other. Or maybe could it just a bit of jealousy on your part? Maybe a part of you wants and likes her as well? Then again any good friend is and always will be concerned about their friends decisision. I hope everything works out. But talk to her, and let her know you don't want to lose her as a friend before you say anything else.

if the timing is your only concern, if he really seems to be a good guy otherwise and genuinely into her, I wouldn't be too worried just yet. Assuming they're not about to go elope overnight, there will be time to think about it and make sure she really feels this is right. You are wise to be skeptical, but sometimes these things actually do work out great... time will tell.

Stay out of it, only those two really know the true answer. You can't keep her from getting hurt and this will only hurt her more.

I think this guy just wants to be married and he will probably make it work.
Unfortunately, it is your friend's life. All you can do is be there if it goes wrong.
