Blocking on facebook...

So we invited a couple we know (friends of friends) to the evening of our wedding, they never showed but I didn't care because I only asked as they were part of a crowd... Now we get an invite to their evening wedding but I don't want to go (because I am not keen on them and they never bothered to come to ours) but my husband said its local so lets go... However just realised the groom has blocked me on facebook... Why bother inviting us at all if you don't like me?
HmmHmm
I hate facebook at most times...

Just dont go.
Clearly you dont even really like each other that much, if your husband is seeing it as an excuse to get out the house or whatever, find something to do together. (Doubles up as an excuse that you already have plans too Wink )
You will no doubt enjoy it more. Dont feel like you have to do things you dont really wanna do, lifes too short for all that

But in relation to the blocking on facebook, if its really bothered you, maybe you could mention it to the bride? I personally would just see it as more reason to not go. If you havent done anything wrong then i wouldnt even worry about it

My husband just wants to go as friends will be there so he thinks it'll be a good night, whereas I think we can see them another time.

So how do we now get out of it as he had already said we'd go?

I have only spoke one word at the most to the groom in the past so god knows what I have done, my facebook posts must annoy him is all I can assume. I don't want him to know I have realised because people are pathetic and he will probably take pleasure in knowing I care (which obviously I do, who wouldn't take that personally?)

Oh yeah i definitely see where you are coming from. Facebook can really bring out the worst in people.
Hm, im not too sure how you would get out of it now, I would say do the old 'sickness' on the day but even i know thats not really fair on them lol.
You could maybe just get in touch with them and say something like, Your really sorry but you double checked your diary and you never realised you had double booked, You shouldnt really have to explain what else you had planned but I would say that even if they are a little annoyed they would maybe still appreciate the fact you let them know.
But if you feel that there really is no way out of it, you never know, you maybe will end up having a good night with your husband and other friends. You might even get on with the bride and groom better?

Maybe he blocked you as there were pictures of what they were doing the night of your wedding Wink
