Re: Friends at my wedding
chameli, not to play the devil's advocate, but it seems as though your friends have a good excuse not to come. To travel to another country to attend a wedding seems a bit much.
But then again, what do I know. Believe it or not, I don't have any friends. There's this group of 4 guys that I've hung out with since I was 10 years old but I wouldn't consider them my friends. I just can't have such close relationship with others. Hell, I am not that close to my family even. You would think I would be all sad and weepy writing this, but to be honest with you, I've seen how "close friends" or "close family" oftentime treat each other when their self-interest collides with their "friendship". I've seen people get really hurt. But I have the best of both world. Although I hang out with this group of people, I don't consider them my friends. So there's no expectation that I have from them. So when they piss me off, I get over it really quick because I am not emotionally attached to them.
I think it's time you do the same. Obviously these aren't your "real" friend. The faster you stop caring about their actions, the happier you will be.
Re: Friends at my wedding
If you can travel to another country for a trip, then why not for a wedding of a "dear friend"? Becuase they're not really ur friends thats why.

Obviously not the same thing...but my 21st was organised weeks in advance so my friends arrnaged things around my 21st...my 20th was really disorganised so i wasnt annoyed when people couldnt make it...
For a wedding i assume this was planned for ages...so they should have arrnaged things around your wedding...so if thats the case then they are crap friends...
If you've been disorganised and havent given much notice you cant expect people to drop things for you...then their excuses are genuine enough and the failure of them turning up is your fault...
I hope it is the latter cos its better knowing that they cant make it rather than they wont make it...
Re: Friends at my wedding
thats the same thing that happened to me..
Re: Friends at my wedding
Unfortunately, people get really jealous when someone gets engaged or is getting married, and they themselves are struggling to find a guy or have problems in their own married life. Don't fret about it, Chameli. It won't matter if the sea of people, a couple of friends didn't show up. The day is about you and your husband, no one else. Concentrate on looking good for him, having a party in your honor, and enjoying the day with your family. Friends change over time, and don't make yourself miserable over the attitude problems of others.
