Not Sure What To Do

Today, my coworker comes up to me and she tells me that she’s upset with me about not inviting her to the wedding. However, I sent her the STD & told her she was definitely invited.


Now, this is also a coworker that worked from home an additional 10 months after everyone else came back to the office. I was under the impression that she wouldn’t come to the wedding, because if she doesn’t want to be at work I’m sure she wouldn’t want to be around 100 people. (Yes, I was wrong to assume. & It should have been her decision) I’m aware of that. Although, her name was on the RSVP. BUT, I never formally gave her an invitation. However, I kept her name on the RSVP list if she decided to come. Fast forward.

She came back into the office June 1st. When she came we talked for about 45 mins to catch up. Neither her nor myself brought up her coming to the wedding but we did talk about. She had the opportunity to ask me about the invitation because her and I are close. So today she’s telling me that she was angry, depressed and hurt because I never sent her an invite. Now, I am the type of person that doesn’t want to ever hurt anyone and I always try to show people I love and care about them. And for her to say that to me hurt my feelings. We did talk about it and I told her about my assumption, but I also told her if she got the STD there was no reason for her to feel as if she was invited. I told her we’re close enough to the point if she felt she wasn’t invited she could have came to me. She said she felt if she would have said anything it would have ruined my day. I honestly don’t know what to do. Do I keep saying sorry?
