I got engaged recently, and I decided the first thing to do was to decide our wedding party. This was very easy to do for me and my fiance, but I still sat with my wedding planner for over two hours choosing my eight bridesmaids very carefully. I easily chose my MOH, because even though I've only known her two years, we have such a bond. We nearly died together, and we just have this awesome connection, so I couldn't imagine anyone else doing it. Then I chose my best friends from the schools I went to in high school, and my friend that I have recently gotten very close to (our fiance's are in the same band). I had a very bad childhood, and throughout high school I lived with a number of friends. Many of those friends are included in my bridal party. But, I wanted to include people that I'm just very good friends with, or have been friends with for a very long time. I was happy with my wedding party, but I have one friend that I did not make a bridesmaid that I lived with that is very upset that I didn't involve her. She made a few jokes about not being a bridesmaid, but I didn't know she was really very upset until I went out with her and her mother, and her mother started screaming at me, calling me ungrateful, rude, and selfish. She wrote a post on facebook calling me out for having a lot of headlice when I left my parents and moved in and has been making posts about how much I whined over my parents, claiming I only want sympathy, and calling me a bad friend. Although this girl has been a good friend, we just are not that close. We argue, she hates everything about my wedding that I've told her, and she is busy with school so I thought it wouldn't work to make her one. I just feel like I have friends that feel entitled to be a part of my big day, just because they helped me out. Don't get me wrong, I am forever grateful for what they did, but there is no way I can include every single friend that I've lived with. It just isn't possible. She's angry, and keeps saying she doesn't care about my wedding now, and that I will never be in her wedding now (I don't really care). I'm just wondering if this is common thing, to lose friends over a slot in the wedding party. And, is it bad of me to not ask people that helped me? I'm sorry for how long this is.
