Drama....Drama...Drama MOH bailed out :(

Hello ladies,

Soooooo this past weekend was my bridal shower and it was nothing but drama before the shower started. I was told that all of my bridesmaids had specific duties in planning for my shower. My cousin and MOH duties was to decorate and food (my moh duties), One bridesmaid was in charge of dessert, the other three bm was in charge of drinks, shower favors and games. Well my cousin and my MOH was suppose to decorate the room where the shower was taking place. I left my cousin to go home so I can get ready but I receive a phone from cousin who was freaking out because my MOH is m.i.a and she's not answering her phone. So I had get off the train and help my cousin decorate. I ended up calling a friend of mine to help out and she arrived 20 mins later and went straight to work. My fsil came and pitch in and also bought my flowers for my tables and still no moh in sight.

I finally went home to get ready and took some meds because I had a massive headache. Finally, I arrived at my shower hugged everyone, took pictures, etc. I was told that my moh was 2 hrs late with food and had an attitude and was being very nasty to everyone. My friend who helped out with decorating, greeted guess, poured them drinks and made sure everyone had a nice time. The whole entire time she was sitting in a corner with her hands folded like some one owe her something. She left the shower very early and seems to be pissed off by something. Later on that night she logged on fb and talked about how she didn't have a nice time at my shower and she's going to bed. On Sunday, she sent out a mass text to my cousin and other bridesmaids talking how disappointing she is with everyone and started to go off on them. On Monday, she text me on how she can't be apart of my wedding and she was losing sleep over her decision. Also she was extremely uncomfortable with the situation at hand (still waiting for to explain what situation she's talking about) She wants my wedding to go smooth and be fun but she can't see herself there and she still here to help me no matter what. I was very hurt and when I ask her why she said she don't like the other girls (never like the girls since day one) No I have no moh and were no longer friends. 14 years friend down the drain... I don't know what to do Cry She still haven't told me the reason on why she left and I don't believe the whole "I don't like the other girls" bs... Sorry for this loooooong post I just need to vent

    Ok i am sorry but this is a bunch of BULLLLLL! Your friend is being a snotty brat who is mad mainly because she is NOT the center of attention. The reason you havent found out what the situation is, is because there IS NONE! If nobody was rude, bitchy or mean to her and you did not recently get into a fight with her she is just starting HIGH SCHOOL drama!

  • This sounds strange. I say you need to get together with her and have a heart to heart talk to see what's going on. Put wedding aside (I know it's hard right now) and be her friend.

  • I agree with the heart to heart...there is always something else than what they say....
  • This whole thing is strange because I don't know what I did wrong we haven't been in a fight...Just nothing at all. I tried to have a heart to heart talk with her yesterday but her response was and still is the other bridesmaids have stink a** attitutes that she can't deal with. I told her she don't have to deal with them after the wedding which is a month away.. She is sooooo stuck up now that I just said F' it. It is what it is now and our friendship is done!!!

  • Maybe it wasn't something you did. Maybe she has a situation with somebody else or with herself??

    Try again when she's not so pissy. I'm sorry. I hope things work out for you.

  • The other bms telling me that she tried to take over the planning when everyone tried to put their input in planning my shower. For an example one of the bm suggested different varieties of food from the south, latin and carribean and she told no that sounds stupid. They fowarded me the text that she sent them to me. All 20 of them and it was nothing but negativity and telling the bm that she has everything under control....

  • I'm sorry you are dealing with this! At least on the bright side, it sounds like the other BMs and your FSIL and friends really pulled through and picked up the slack from the MIA MOH to make your shower a success. Try to be thankful for the amazing friends you do have, and just let the MOH cool off for a few days and see if maybe it just blows over. I really hope you can work it out with her!

  • Ugh, this really sucks for you, but like the others, it sounds to me like MOH is having a life-crisis on her own. I always wonder, when people treat me badly or are upset about something, what it is that I did, but usually, it has nothing to do with me. I think that is probably the case with your MOH. Tell her you miss her and want to take her out for a nice dinner, be nice to her, treat her, and see whats going on with her life.
  • That totally sucks.  There seems to always be drama at showers.  I would just let her simmer for a while and cool off.  If you want to just let her go, then do it.  If not talk to her in another week about everything else going on her life, you never know what else is going on until you talk to her.  If she still doesn't want to talk then oh well, she's out and it sounds like you have a ton of great BMs and friends to help you out on your day.

  • I'm sorry that you are having to deal with MOH drama!  But like the PP's said - it sounds like you have a lot of great ladies in your life who are willing to step up and help.

    I'm sure it feels like your friendship is doomed - but I bet if your MOH does back out, she'll really regret it later.  You should not have to convince anyone to be in your wedding though.  I would give her a little space, then try talking with her after she cools down.
