This morning I woke up to a text from a coworker that I'm not that good of friends with saying, "You better invite me to your wedding!" She not joking. That's just her very forward personality. She is one of many coworkers who keep hinting (less directly) that they want to be invited. Who else deals with people constantly fishing for an invite? I get it from mostly coworkers that I'm not very close with & old friends that I haven't talked to in at least 5 years. How do you *polietly* deal?

    I'm just dumbfounded over ppl & their need to impose on others. Like if we don't hang out or talk on the phone, y would I invite u to one of the most important days of my life?? I guess ppl love weddings lol

    Yep. I get people fishing for invites CONSTANTLY.

    ETA: as for politely dealing with it, I just tell them we're doing a family only thing and then change the subject.
