Only two bridesmaids?

[Zubes]

I’ve recently got engaged and we are planning our wedding. I have two close friends, one of which I am her maid of honour to her wedding next year, and the other is a friend I met at work and we have kept the friendship going.

There is a 3rd “friend” I was considering asking to be a bridesmaid, but now I am not sure. We used to have a mutual work friend together, whom we both fell out with for different reasons. I have cut this person off, and she said the same but I have noticed her “liking” this persons posts on Instagram and supporting her business. I find this two faced after all she said to me about this person? It makes me feel like cutting off this person too as I cannot stand two faced-ness! AIBU?

I was also considering asking my SIL to be a bridesmaid, but I wasn’t asked to be one of hers at her wedding. I also wasn’t invited to her hen party & I feel like the only reason I’d be asking her is because I feel like such a loner/loser with no friends if I only have two bridesmaids stood with me :-(

I feel like I am the problem in all of this, I am 29 & only have two real friends.

I didn’t bother with any bridesmaids. I had people who I could have asked but we were on a budget so something had to give.

Yep, I will do that. But what kind of friendship is it if I feel like I can’t/shouldnt confide in them, not tell them certain things, out of fear that it’ll go back to other person?

A superficial one. Friendships ebb and flow over the years. You don't need to cut people off permanently if for whatever reason they are not currently your BFF right now. Long term if the situation remains distant you may well just quietly drop them but it doesn't have to be a big flounce, you're not invited to my wedding right now.
