Sorry this is long as I need to explain the backstory.
So I am planning my wedding for next year.
I am thinking about invites and numbers and am not quite sure what to do about inviting a certain friend.
We have known each other for a really long time and saw each other fairly regularly until a few years ago where we both moved and sort of drifted apart.
She has always been a bit of a user and only really hung out with me if her other friends were busy or she had fallen out with them. It was not uncommon to not hear from her for 6 months then get a text or message on Facebook saying we hadn't seen each other for ages and needed a catch up and when should we meet. (Normally after I had posted a picture or been tagged in a pic)
This was fine and I met her if I wasn't busy but didn't push the relationship at all and left it up to her to make the first move.
Well she got pregnant (single parent) and I sent her congrats messages and if she needed anyone at scans etc I would help and she text saying thanks but that was pretty much it.
She had baby and put loads of stuff on Facebook and got new mummy friends and didn't speak to me for ages, she put all about her child's christening and didn't invite me.
She seems to not be quite so close to mummy friends anymore which might be worth bearing in mind.
I announced my engagement on FB and she got in touch immediately wanted to know all about it and wanted to get involved I texted back a bit but tried to be fairly aloof as felt a bit pissed off that she wants an invite and be involved in my wedding but didn't invite me to her sons christening.
Would I be really petty and mean to not invite her? It's not a massive wedding and inviting her wouldn't really matter budget wise but I just feel a bit upset she didn't want to know me when she had all her mummy friends and didn't invite me to her sons christening, but then I didn't send a card only sent a message.
I would probably drop the friendship as we don't really talk unless she is reminded of my existence but as more stuff goes on Facebook she is more likely to get back in touch and I don't know what to say.
