Friends – 'The Chosen Ones'
Wedding in two weeks, am so excited, really can’t wait! Disappointingly, some close friends are unable to make it and I’m really quite annoyed about it to be honest.
We’re having a small-ish reception which means we needed to choose those friends we’d invite, and had to be a little ruthless about it.
I invited four friends from my time at uni, and I did want to invite a few more but couldn’t. Of those friends, one rang early on to say they couldn’t make it for work reasons as they are 2IC and their boss was going to be away and that they had to run the business. That’s fine, I understood and appreciated the early advice. However, two others who replied saying they were coming, are now not coming and I only found out today. It still leaves me with one attending though so that’s pleasing. What shits me is that it’s now only two weeks to the wedding. Because others I’d invite are scattered interstate, I now can’t give them much notice at all to travel here for a Friday wedding.
I’m also really annoyed because the three that can’t come were some of my closest friends at uni but they won’t be at my wedding. It may be harsh to say this, but if they won’t make the effort to come to the most important day of my life, should I even have them in my life now?
Am going to have a coffee and try and calm down, but I am really quite pissed off at the moment.
I’m really sorry to hear about their bad form Joel the Mole.
If I were you, I wouldn’t even give them a second thought. In the end, who needs half arsed friendships like that, when you are about to marry your best friend in the world.
They’re the ones missing out sweetie.
Lots of love to you and E’lise and Maddy,
Prue
