Looking for some perspective and advice....
I posted a couple of weeks ago about my BM who broke up with her live-in SO. I had already sent the invite and it was addressed with both of their names on it before she told me about their split. My question then was should I let him know he's not invited or just not say anything and assume he probably knows/won't come. The general consensus was to not say anything. So I went with that. No drama with him so far - so thanks for that advice!
Fast forward to now. Our RSVP date is fast approaching and my BM sent me a text saying she wasn't sure which one of her yoga friends she's going to bring. I should have posted this question before I responded to her, but I said, "There will be a lot of single guests there - BM2 and BM4 aren't bringing anyone either. Plus we'll be busy most of the time anyway so whoever you bring will probably be pretty bored." I wish I would have said, "I'm sorry, the invitation was for you and former-SO."
Question to you all - how do I handle this? Was what I said a big enough hint? If not, how do I say "no date" directly and tactfully? Or, should I allow her a plus one (she is truly single now)? At $170/head I don't really want to...
ETA: The RSVP she actually sent back in the mail said 2 with only her name.
