My bridesmaid didn't have a problem with it, but he was all bent out of shape. He actually used the phrase "What about me!?!" (He should have been saying, what about her, but that reveals whom he was concerned about) He accused me of lying, of plotting with my other bridesmaids to ruin her birthday (HIS plans for her birthday, of which I had no knowledge of), and sent me nasty emails. I almost uninvited him to the wedding, but I knew that it would hurt my friend, so I eventually talked it out with him and worked it out. I’m not sure how he rationalized accusing me of neglecting HIS feelings while planning MY wedding, but he did. This is a man I would talk to, maybe twice a year. He was WAY more drama than most of my future in-laws! And this was for a friend who I was Maid of Honor in her wedding a few years back, and I planned and hosted her bachelorette party and personal shower during a time where I wasn’t dating anyone (so seeing her so googly-eyed in love was really sickening at the time, but I sucked it up, because hey, it was her WEDDING!). Honestly, the getting married part was easy after dealing with all the crazy friend and family issues.
