I asked 2 friends to be my bridesmaids as i felt they were close friends now heres the story,

Let them choose their own dresses which totally changed my preferred colour scheme, the dresses arrived 4 weeks ago and they havent shown the slightest interest in trying them on!!! despite me keep asking. They live 50 miles away and just dont seem interested at all. Im organising my own hen do with the help. of H2B as he thinks they lack of interest is disgusting. What makes it worse is our wedding is abroad and we have paid for flights and accommodation is free as its family members villa that will hold the event.

I feel as though im getting to the point when i say "dont bother coming". Its my special day and i dont understand why the girls just dont seem interested. I feel really hurt.

Any advice welcome please

Hi poochy, I can totally understand why you are hurt. I think the only way to resolve this is to talk to them about it, otherwise you'll just dwell on it and come to your own conclusions without them even being aware that you're upset. Try to address it with them in a calm, non confrontational way. Tell them that you're not angry but hurt. Bear in mind that they might have things going on in their own lives, or they might be feeling left out themselves, or weddings just aren't they thing and they weren't aware it could be hurting your feelings.

I am guessing that this is quite an emotional and possibly stressful time and you may be a more sensitive than they realise at the moment. If they're not married themselves they might not appreciate the extra support you need either.

I hope it works out for you, I'm sure they won't be meaning to hurt you.

Xx
