One of FI friends is getting the boot!

FI told me yesterday that he is kicking one of the GM out of the wedding. Weeks have gone by and this "friend" has not returned any of FI phone calls. A mutual friend ran into this guy at a BBQ and said that his reasoning behind not returning FI calls is because he doesn't hang out anymore like he use too.

Well I should hope not. FI is on a different level now. He isn't running the streets and clubbing anymore trying to get numbers. I think it is really S***ty that his friend is so selfish. Real friends are happy for you when you are happy not mad because they can't hang out as much. I suggested that we have plenty of time before the wedding and maybe this "friend's" attitude will change. But FI is putting his foot down.

Anyone else dealing with FI/DH's friends that act like you are stealing them away?

I am about to do a post now about one of my BMs... We aren't have any trouble with FI's friends they are doing pretty good so far...

I agree with your FI on this one. If his boy wants to act stank he needs to be  squashed ASAP. The last thing you want to deal with is his GM dragging his feet on getting measured for tuxes or just not being there for your FI when he needs him. My FI's friends kind of joke about him being "shackled" but they are all in committed relationships too and if they aren't they understand why he doesn't hang like he used to...he's GROWN UP! lol

We are not dealing with this yet and I hope we don't have to.  But, I can tell you the FH doesn't play that and he will boot your butt in a hot New Orleans minute!

 I have seen where a groomsmen went along with paying for his portion and then decides on the actual wedding day not to show up without a call. So, its probably a good thing that he is showing his true colors now rather than later.

Go FI for kicking him out, I'd like to kick out a few myself....

I think your FI is right on - if this GM is acting up now, there's no guarantee he'll get it together as the date draws near.  So cut your losses now and get that negative energy out of your wedding party! 

I know my FI would have done the same thing - he wouldn't play that mess.

But his friends have been very supportive - it may be easier as well b/c FI was already pretty much out of the clubbin/going out phase and was generally settled down.  Plus most of his close friends don't live in town.
