So idk if I am just really stressed out BC I am at a month away or still stressed that I was off for 3 months but I need advice...

The one girl that I used to work with had her bridal shower over the weekend. We were very close and still were but I never got an invite to the bridal shower.. Her wedding is the end of this month and I sent my rsvp that I was going BC I never wanted to miss it. I never received hers yet.. I messaged her and waiting for a response now. But I just feel so hurt that I never got an invite. Is it okay for me to feel this way?

    It's okay for you to feel however you feel, but you need to work through your feelings and let them go. People often times limit their showers to their closest friends and family only, especially now in the middle of a pandemic.

    The shower could have been inviting different groups of friends, i wouldn't take it personally. i didn't invite every female or every female friend to my shower.

    I can understand feeling a little hurt, but I wouldn't take it personally. My shower is next weekend and I definitely am having way less people due to the pandemic and social distancing. I reserved it basically to the closests of friends/family, not my whole female guest list.


    Perhaps she was trying to make it intimate so that her family could attend without risk.

    It's always okay to feel you how feel - that's totally normal and you are entitled to your feelings. However, I don't think it was meant personally. Shower guest lists are normally limited, so it really may not have been a slight towards you. I would feel how you feel, but try to accept and move on soon so you can keep building that friendship.

    You are entitled to feel however you feel. Just keep in mind it may not have been a deliberate slight. For example...My shower is next month. After several venue changes, it's being hosted at my MoH's house. Being that she's hosting it and she and my other MoH are paying for it, they get to decide who's coming. I gave them a copy of the full wedding guest list with my few priority people and they get to fill in the rest. And as far as the RSVP, they may not know if they can make it yet, especially being this close to their wedding as well. Time and money are very touchy subjects lately and friends or not, it's not always easy to talk about.
