"Best Friend" has been MIA since I got engaged!!!

My alleged "best friend" has pretty much cut me off since I got engaged. She stopped returning my calls and when I do talk to her, it's totally different..she's dry. Have any of you experienced this?

    Don't feel bad sweetie! I'm going throught the same thing. I have 2 BF and 1 is very supportive and the other is just being a evil B@#!@! Every since I got engaged she has been very distant. She got married 2 years ago, I was the MOH in her wedding and I did everything for this heffa! She had the best bridal/bach party ever. Now, when or if I talk to her she's very short and dry as well. I've decided to not put forth an effort anymore. If she calls, she calls if she doesn't I sure and hayle won't call her! Sometimes people are jealous and can't be happy for you because they are not happy with themselves...Just try to ask her if somethings wrong and if no response then KIM(keep it moving)!!! Good luck!!!

    I know how you feel. I just started planning and wanted to call a meeting with the girls I choose. One being my best friend is suppose to be maid of honor. No response to text messages, facebook messages or phone calls. Better yet my cousin and one other close friend are pulling the same thing. I wont let them stress me out before I get started. I have already consulted with one of my backups and the responsed and say they will be honored to stand up for me. I feel like if your happy or not, maybe you dont like the person Im go be with the rest of my life. SO WHAT. You are suppose to be there for me. Some people just dont understand. Dont let it bother you Stephanie. Keep moving and maybe she will call or show up.

    jealousy is a very SAD thing. Its sad, it really is. I lost a friend of ten years about two months after being engaged. Of course we had a few issues throughout the uears, but her being ignorant and snide remarks were enough for me to be done with the friendship. I say, what goes around comes around. If and when they ever get engaged, they will feel terrible on the inside once they realize how they treated you during you process.

    I had the same problems. No one like the new me, the one that was happy and excited and just YAH all the time. I had a friend that I never talked to about the wedding, one day I was feeling low about planning and discussed it with her and she was basically is that all you can talk about. Whatever! I made up my mind then and there not to let anyone else's issues of growing old alone affect my happiness. People have their own issues surrounding marriage and love and your wedding just brings out their own insecurities. You can't let it get to you, keep your own happiness and keep their drama out.
