Would you be mad?

Lets say you invite a close friend to a rushed wedding. Like you set the date in 2 weeks and invite them over sms or face-face (giving details of hotel etc etc) and they are not able to come, would you be pissed off?

Re: Would you be mad?

i'll kill him/her

Re: Would you be mad?

^why? Shouldnt they kill you for telling them at last minut? :p

Re: Would you be mad?

they cant kill me

Re: Would you be mad?

^uff, cuz u are made of something untouchable?

Re: Would you be mad?

Well it really depends. You can tell how much the person wants you to be there on their wedding or for that matter any function. As a friend, you should be able to understand their situation. I know i have often told my friends not to even send me invitation card and just sms, why must there be any such formality between friends? but again depends on the kind of relationship you share with them.

Re: Would you be mad?

no. just like you have circumstances creating scheduling problem, they might have their own problems......

Re: Would you be mad?

well said :hat:

Re: Would you be mad?

I think you misunderstood what I meant. What I meant was the whole deal is very rushed, so no time for cards delivery and so on. So you invite your close friend in a situation like this, but like mentioned its a date set 2 weeks from now, but they are not able to attend, will you be mad?

Re: Would you be mad?

are u sure? :stuck_out_tongue:

Re: Would you be mad?

Oh ok. I wouldnt be mad unless i know they didnt give it their best to attend your wedding :).

Re: Would you be mad?

yeah

Re: Would you be mad?

Nah I wouldn't.

Re: Would you be mad?

What reason did they give you for not being able to come to your wedding?

Re: Would you be mad?

I wouldnt be mad...maybe disappointed because I wanted them there.

However, considering the circumstances and that it was a rushed wedding...I would tell myself its okay.

Re: Would you be mad?

I'd call the cops

Re: Would you be mad?

Nope I Wouldnt !!

Re: Would you be mad?

Actualol :hehe:

Re: Would you be mad?

I wouldn't be mad. If they had a valid reason, then that would be ok, if not, I would feel a little let down, but not mad.

Re: Would you be mad?

You haven't stated the reason why your close friend is unable to attend the rushed wedding. Do you even know the reason yourself?

Look, arranging a wedding is so stressful; there is so much that needs to get done. By allowing yourself to get upset over a small issue that is not in your control, you're just creating more stress for yourself.

If this is a friend that you really care about, I would suggest that you meet her in person. If that's not possible, then call her up. Explain to her that you would have really liked to send her a wedding invitation card but the date was set in only 2 weeks and you weren't able to......and that since you count her among your best friends....you were really excited about inviting her and didn't want to wait until the cards were made and that she is like your "apnay" and didn't think that she'd mind the lack of card formality. That way she knows that you care about her and that the absence of a card doesn't mean that you don't respect or value her. Just explain your feelings and situation in a nice way.

If she has important commitments or valid majboori where she can't attend the wedding, then try to be understanding and don't end a good friendship. Things happen in life that we can't always get out of. If your friend is being petty over not receiving a card (which she'd eventually throw in the garbage along with other cards)....then be content with the fact that you did your part and tried your best to smooth things over. You can't stop enjoying the wedding just because one person didn't show up. You'll have other supportive friends and family there as well.
