OK so my oldest friend (since we were 10 so a 28 year friendship) asked me to be godmother to her DD, born last year. Really delighted. We have just been discussing the christening which is happing in July. She lives in UK so we will fly over from Ireland, so far so normal. Then a couple of things came up which made me feel a bit weird. She casually mentioned "the other godmothers" - plural.... Turns out I am one of 3 godmothers which I thought was odd. "Don't feel any less special, Dublin" she said. It's not about me feeling special but I just thought it was odd to have 3 godmothers - has anyone else come across this?
Then we were talking about accommodation and she said could I sort out a room in the local pub (they live in a very rural area). OK I said, no problem but THEN she started listing all the people who would be staying with them (they have a big house and an extra cottage on the farm) and basically of the 30 or so people attending we are the only ones who will be paying to stay in the pub while EVERYONE else is put up either at their's or at their in-laws (5 miles away). I feel quite hurt by this and very definitely left out.
We have had our ups and owns over the years as all friends have but I feel very confused by this. Her former nanny is staying at the house for example while we are told we need to get a room at the pub. AIBU or is this all a bit odd?
