My friend Mark - we've been friends since I was 18, so going on 16 years. We both consider each other best friends. He met my FI before we started dating and he knows him very well too. I sent out a STD to Mark in January.
Mark mentioned to me yesterday that he might not be coming to the wedding because he has nothing to wear.
He is 38 years old and single. He makes $$$$$. He lives in an apartment in his mom's house and pays $100 in rent. He's known about this wedding since January. And he can't go out and get a pair of pants and a button down shirt? For real? I told him he doesn't have to go out and buy a suit. Slacks and a nice shirt are FINE! He can go to Sears and spend probably $50 on a whole outfit. But he seems set on using this as an excuse.
Honestly, I'm more disappointed than angry. But oh well. There's nothing I can do. But I did have to snark on it.
