AIO For Cutting My Friend Off After I Wasn’t Invited to The Wedding?
A buddy of mine is getting married. I only know this through a mutual friend. So, not to overreact I text the soon to wed buddy and ask “Am I not invited to your wedding?” The response is “Sorry man. It came down to numbers with the space and we had to cut you out”. To which I respond “Bet” and proceed to block said “buddy”. Am I overreacting?
For those readers who like details and long paragraphs, I’ll add context: We’ve known each other over a decade - close to 15years. I’ve know him and his soon to be wife their entire relationship (minus one year). Me and the alleged “buddy” went to the same undergrad and are in the same fraternity. EXTREMELY CLOSE BUDDIES. When the soon to be wife kicked him out of their apt or house, he crashed with me for free. Multiple times. When his girl was caught cheating on him, I let him know and was there for him even after he took her back but said he wasn’t allowed to speak to me anymore - per soon to be wife’s orders.
I feel he isn’t a man, nor a friend because I had to find out through a mutual that the invites went out and I wasn’t getting one. I feel the conversation should have been had first. Whether it was “hey there was the cheating drama so we don’t want that at our wedding” or whatever, but we’ve hung out HUNDREDS of times since then - as that occurred over a decade ago. So that can’t be the reason.
Also, this mutual friend is allowed to bring his gf as a plus one. The bride and groom have only known the gf like half of the time they’ve known me. But more importantly, they barely even like each other (gf and soon to be bride). I feel the REAL conversation which should have been had is with the mutual that this will have to be a solo adventure, the gf has to sit out, and I could go.
