What the hell?

My matron of honor just called me. I guess, since Wes and I are already married, the flight to Virginia (because we offered to pay for the hotel) is just too much for a couple who makes $150,000 a year. Especially since they pay $1,200 a month in rent, only have one car payment and no student loans. Yeah, I can see how those plane tickets would be a stretch. I don't even know what to say. Especially since she's going to a destination wedding in Hawaii next month: for a co-worker. Opinions? I am proud of myself though, because I knew this was going to happen (Wes said there was no way she would do this), and I didn't ask her if the real issue was because I married Wes and not money. I am really pissed though. Especially since she offered to come out some other time to visit. I guess this just shows who your real friends are.

After sleeping on this, I'm seriously considering dropping her as a friend. She's always been high maintenance. Sometimes she would quit talking to me because "you know what you did." I didn't and I'm not a mind reader. Or three. She's very much a take, take, take friend. And, if you don't remember, when I told her that Wes was interested in me, her reply was "he's just interested in you because I'm not available." Hence the fact that I think this has little to do with finances and more to do with Wes. Do I just let it fade: never answer her calls or return them? Or do I tell her that I honestly think she's a bitch and have only maintained the friendship because she's constantly telling me she doesn't have any other friends and is not having any luck making new friends, so I felt sorry for her (and yes, this is the truth: I've discussed it with Camille). There are good things about her, but I don't think they outweigh the bad at this point. I have too much good stuff going on in my life to drag around crap like this. I guess I have made up my mind, but now I just have to figure out how to do it.

I say, honesty is the best policy. And it will be way more funner!

I would say let it go....there's just too much life to be living to be messing with all that - especially now that you're a newlywed. Enjoy your life, Sugar, and if she's not wanting to support you, why would you want her around anyway?

wow. that sucks! i totally know what you're dealing with though, because of a somewhat similar situation that i've been dealing with. i went with the let it go and don't call route. way easier for me and less stressful, although probably not as cathartic as saying "go to hell." lol

thanks for your comments on my site. i'll be ok.

Love you Stacia. Let me be a little childish here and say "I was here first and I'll be here last." Follow that with the tongue sticking out and a big old "plfplfplfplfplfplf".

We'll get old and travel the world together once we outlive our husbands - how does that sound? I'll pack the Depends.

Geez... such drama. Who needs it?

You looked gorgeous dahling at the ball. Miss you. Big hugs.
