So my bf has been engaged for 2 years now(she would brag). I got engaged in october. I'm one of her bridesmaids and she's one of mine. After seeing my ring she tells me that she's going to ask her fiancé for a new ring. She keeps changing her colors. Now they are the same as what I chose. I was originally going to have my wedding the last Saturday in October and I told her that, well she set hers for that date after learning about mine. She been picked out bridesmaid dresses but never told me to go get fitted. She never comes to any of the meetings that I get the wedding party to come to even though they are close to her home. She doesn't respond to any of my texts pertaining to my wedding. We used to talk everyday twice a day and now we speak once a month. She told me to put someone else on "STANDBY" "just in case" for her fiancé since he was supposed to be in our wedding too! I understand that she is planning her wedding but so am I.What do I do? I've tried to give her a way out too!

And as long as you don't hold "wedding meetings", then you're not crazy. Stay away from high expectations.

I think wedding meetings would be fun if the wedding party would be up to doing it plus ever one would get to know each other a little more!...why not?

Just don't call them wedding meetings. Just say you would like to get together, and if they can't make it, don't worry about it.

That is why I think when you are getting married and planning a wedding you should not be in anyone's bridal party its just too much. Weddings are stressful as it is and having to help organize another persons wedding at the same time as yours is just nuts. Try to get her to step down and just step down from hers if you can as well its not worth it, also not worth loosing a friendship either. This is very typical so don't feel bad I have seen it happen a lot.

Totally keep wedding details to yourself! Dont tell her. Make her wonder what your hiding. Then she will want to be involved. Its sad how jealousy can change people. However, dont let a friendship slip because of wedding planning.
