Think we have lost the Best Man [:(]

Sorry if this is long but need to get it off my chest!

Basically me and my H2B have had various issues with the Best Mans wife. She started off as being a good friend to us, but for one reason or another it has broken down through faults on both sides. The BM is stuck in the middle and said yesterday that if his wife doesnt come to the wedding he cant be BM. He was really lovely about it and has been nothing but nice to me throughout. I sent her a message saying that I was truly sorry about what had happened and that of course she was welcome to the wedding etc. All I got back was how hurt she was (bearing in mind she has not treated us the best either - like I said both sides are to blame) and that she would consider my apology.

My OH has said I can do all I can - but I know he is upset that his best mate may not be at the wedding. What else can I do?

Thanks for getting this far...could do without the stress really!!

    YOur OH sounds like a nice, reasonable man saying you have done all you can . Fallouts can escalate to such a silly extent that it becomes almost unsurmountable. But at the end of the day; you both have much to do in preparation and if the BM's wife can't accept your apology then it's her problem and upto he BM to try his best to rectify things.

    I think you have done the best you can. I would tell the best man that you have emailed his wife to apologised. Hopefully this will work. At least it show that you have tried and it's now her being stubborn not you.

    Thank you ladies. The BM is still ok with me and we get on really well. Might let the dust settle and give it another try. The BM knows that I have tried. Thanks for the support. X

    Thank you again. Have had a long chat with OH and he is very much of the opinion of what will be will be. I just wish I could stop worrying about it! X
