My “bestfriend” just asked me to be her honorary bridesmaid.She said she had 9 bridesmaids originally (me included) but her fiancé said he doesn’t have many friends so she decided to make me a honorary bridesmaid.

She also mentioned it was because she ”knew” (I wonder how) l wouldn’t want to get involved in all the whole wedding organization/activities mess.She said she will still give me “one” of the gifts she has prepared for her bridesmaids so l don’t feel excluded.

I don’t know how to feel about it. Especially because l got married this past May (so l know A LOT about wedding organization/activities) and SHE WAS MY MOH.

I was the only person with her when she bought her wedding dress (& she was the only one l had too). Her “friends” & mom bailed out on her & none of the girls picked up or called back when she was calling to show them the dress.

I feel like saying no and even not going. Do you think lm overreacting?Im hurt.

    These girls are racist, condescending monsters and you are SO much better off without them in your life. A "young mentor" to you? What in the actual fuck. Seriously.

    I hope you cut ties with all of them, and are open and honest if anyone asks you why you won't be attending the wedding of a hateful bitch.

    Good riddance. Fuck them. You deserve better. All the examples they are using to try and justify this behavior are asinine. A person can lose weight to be a model if they so choose. A person cannot however change their skin color to fit in with these losers ridiculous expectation of "color uniformity"

    OMG this group is over the top.

    And do tell your husband--he is your support, cheerleader and biggest fan!

    You are not a loser, but they sure are. They act like middle schoolers.

    You are going to come out of this so much stronger and able to see your worth like we do Smiley smile

    Always feel free to come on here to vent or anything you need.

    This is the most heartbreaking blatant racism I think I've ever seen. OP, I hope you love yourself enough (you should!) to know that you deserve more than people who say the color of the skin means you don't fit the part. I'm surprised that you never saw this racism from them before, because they obviously were raised to view you as less of a person than they are.

    You need to be so strong and surround yourself with strong women and men that can help you see how terrible they are. Do not belittle yourself and make yourself feel that they are right, because they just aren't. And they might think less of you because of your decision, but their opinions don't matter, and I promise that you will be happier with them out of your life. Stay strong, girl.

    I REALLY HATE WHEN PEOPLE USE THE BIBLE TO FIT A MALICIOUS AGENDA.

    Don't hide behind you Christianity when you are going against the simplest christian principle:Love one another.

    Then using their friendship as ransom. Just too much.

    FUCK THEM!!!! They can have each other.

    OP - Fuck these people. There reactions to your honest feelings proves the type of people they are.

    They are ugly, hateful, selfish, horrible people who do not deserve to be around you.

    I am so sorry you are dealing with this. Know that we are here for you

    OP You are not their philanthropy/ feel good friendship project. Anyone who can befriend you and then dangle it in your face was never your friend.

    This is pushing me over an edge. The audacity of these girls. Who the fuck do they think they are.

    Delete them, block them, and sashay away with your bad self. Shine on these bitches and let them watch you rise with a whole new group of friends that value and appreciate "YOU".
