A while ago now, someone I used to go to college with bumped into me in the street and when I told her i waz getting married she told me she already knew. Apparently my cousin had seen her in town a few weeks before and told her that I was getting wed. She also told my old college pal that unless she was asked to be bridesmaid her and my aunty and other (male) cousin would not go to my wedding.
Previous to hearing this news I had been in a bit of a wonderment as to whether I should ask my cousin to be bridesmaid as she is the only female member of family that I have and my mother was kind of hoping I would ask her. After hearing this reported news I was damned if I was going to invite her (she and my aunty are a constant cause of annoyance anyway)
Can you even begin to believe the cheek of it. Anyway my bridesmaids have been announced and she is not one of them. I am very excited about the prospect of sending out my invitations because I can't wait to see if she will carry out her silent threat. If she does decline to come, I will definately ask her why she is declining and show her up for the pompus stupid mare she is. If she accepts the invitation to attend the wedding I am in two minds whether to mention to her what my college buddy told me (I don't think my college buddy would mind me blabbing as she is about as keen on her as I am)
Am I being as bitchy as she is?
By the way just for background info, this is the same girl whos fella won't marry her, and when she had her eldest christened she hired a photographer, had a cutting the cake session with her fella!! and a first dance!! FIRST DANCE, FOR WHAT!!!
Yes I am as bitchy as she is aren't I???? |

Classic!
We are missing one of h2b's sisters, her hubby and the 2 kids from not just the wedding but life in general all because her little lady was "the only one in the family who wasn't being bridesmaid" and she "wouldn't stand for our bullying tackticks!" I pointed out actually that she may be 1 of 3 on their side but i had hundreds of broken hearted chicks on my side cos none of them are being bridesmaid for me. 
Its heartbreaking and sometimes hard to explain but its your day so stick to your guns (which you have) and more importantly....keep us updated!!!  |

I really can not understand why people get so tetchy over things things such as bridesmaids. If they took 2 seconds to think about it then they would understand you can't have everywoman and their kid as bridesmaids!
When one of my friends got married she invited me and my then boyfriend to the wedding (day and night do). shortly after receiving the invite me and my boyfriend split up. about 3 weeks before the wedding I met someone else. My friend phoned me up and asked if it was ok that my new boyfriend did not attend the ceremony as she was struggling for places, but he was very welcome to join me at the evening reception. She went on to apologies because my ex had been invited to the ceremony and she hoped I wouldn't get upset that my new man wasn't.
Why should she invite someone to her wedding ceremony that she had only seen once or twice just to say hello to! I completely understood where she was coming from and was actually not even expecting him to be invited to the reception either.
Gee Im nice |

families are a nightmare! You can see why people go off on their own and just get married.
We are getting married abroad so we are only taking my parents, his parents and our two best friends (who are a couple). So hopefully I won't come across this problem |

| You have to pity her really, its the green eyed monster gone mad. Why do people try and ruin others happiness because they have non of their own. I would take the higher ground if she refuses to come and tell her that you are very sorry she can't make it and that you would have loved her to be there, that way she won't have her actions justified and might rethink |
