Difficult friends after engagement

Here's my opinion on the matter. Just some some of the posts I read in this forum or just on the internet in general basically everyone is going to have an opinion about what you should do for your big day. I have noticed when it comes to life event everybody wants to have a say. At the end of the day you didn't know about the engagement and even so that was your special day and even though that person was a good friend of yours it wasn't like it was obligatory that the person be there. I feel that any friend or family member that truly cares about you is not going to hold a grudge because they were not invited. Even if was my best friend I would never think to be invited to when their significant other pops the question. Plus even though a person is a good friend at the end of the day it was family that was there and I can understand sharing something like this with the close family. I know it hurts and honestly I would feel exactly how you feel about the situation and it would worry me too but on the outside looking in I feel like this this person is being immature and is holding a grudge. Would you really want someone like that to be involved with anything in regards to one of the happiest days in your life? Personally at this point since this person is acting this way and is not even talking to you I wouldn't invite that person to any other events including your wedding. I feel like if you want to you can take a person to the side and talk it out with them and see if it rectify the problem but then if it doesn't then honestly maybe you reevaluate your relationship with this person because regardless if that person was invited or not they should be genuinely happy for you and happy to share and any moment and regards to your wedding. Sometimes it sadly takes events like this to show who really does care about you and whose work sticking around in your life.

When a person acts salty about an engagement, my first assumption is that they are jealous, or afraid of losing their friend. Either is a SUPER immature reaction to have, and there's not much you can or should do about it. Don't skip your party because of one bad apple!

Ditto! I went through the same thing with a so called ''friend'' who turned out to be a narcissist. When I got engaged she was fake happy for me and her Jealously, Envy and Insecurities started to show. She didn't like the attention that I was getting from my engagement ring and thought she was deserving of it so she started wearing random rings on her ring finger even though she is not engaged all because she is Jealous. I cut her out of my life and never looked back. You may want to cut this friend out of your life
