FH and I received a STD from his close friend about 2 months ago and it included 2 seats that we RSVP'd for his wedding.

FH and I received a STD from his close friend about 2 months ago and it included 2 seats that we RSVP'd for his wedding. FH just received the invitation to his wedding for sept 10th this week and he decided to ask if I am included. I have the screenshot of the message. FH is a bit hurt by and I'm honestly not surprised from what I know about his friend. He's nice and all but not very responsible. FH does not know what to say to him but knows he would want to go with me of course. Its tacky and I don't want FH to take it too personally but what kind of friend does that? FH even went as far as wanting to uninvite him to our wedding lol I told him lets not go to that level. Just talk to him and we will still invite him and his fiancé. What should FH respond with?

    Tacky. Sounds like he could benefit from some ww advice. Also sounds as though they are not very close now. I keep asking myself when thinking about my guest list..how long has it been since I've actually interacted with this person and what is the likely hood of me keeping in contact after the wedding.

    My FH would be saying well I guess you have one more seat, because he wouldn't go without me if I weren't invited. His words, not mine. He's having I go to a wedding alone this weekend because I have to work and it's his cousin.

    It's tacky and annoying I would let FH decide of he wants to go, then still invite him and his FW to your wedding.

    But if your FH doesn't attend his wedding, he may not attend yours.

    That text is rude AF. I think your FH should decline to be honest.

    @FutureMrs.Dyson thats exactly what FH told me. If he doesn't go to his friends tacky wedding, he might not come to ours. I told him "so what? At least we would be kind enough to invite his significant other....I mean he was invited to the engagement party our moms are having and isn't going."

    Please forgive me for this but the abbreviation of save the date threw me off so much! I was very confused about how you and your fiancé got an std from one of his friends! I hope I could at least bring some laughter with this comment! But I definitely think his friend didn't treat the situation appropriately. You don't invite only half of a serious couple.

    Tell him not to worry - that he now has an extra seat to not screw over another couple - DECLINE

    You're a FW, not a +1. My fiance would decline the invite, we're a packaged deal

    I'd be ugly about it & tell this friend that he now has an extra seat because I won't be attending without my fiancé. But, I'm bitchy like that.
