Bridesmaid can’t make my wedding - AIBU?

[Totempoler]

I’m getting married next year and one of my bridesmaids now can’t come to the wedding because she’s joining the Navy and she’ll be training. AIBU to be furious and think friends shouldn’t do this?!

YABU

Yeah right

So, this is your first thread, unless you're a NCer?

You can't understand why someone who is joining the military can't take a weekend off from her essential training which goes on for weeks/months? Grow the fuck up.

Really....... Really?

You are being completely ridiculous.

Looks like we are on for a 100% YABU. that doesn't happen that often.

I say this with all the respect that you deserve (which is a minute amount): get over yourself, OP.

It's probably easier for you to rearrange the wedding than for her to rearrange military training.

Maybe you could do that if you are so bothered..

Is it just the one bridesmaid? Can you ask someone else?

It is only a wedding. Just one day. Some people get married in their lunch breaks. It really doesn't have to be such a big deal. YABU.

What do you think she should do?
Cancel the training and her career?

Actually I think YANBU

No, I'm kidding. That's mental

Looks like we are on for a 100% YABU. that doesn't happen that often.

That hasn't happened since Donald Trump started a thread in AIBU.

PMSL! You're furious she put her career ahead of your poxy wedding? That's hilarious. At least she'll be able to get away from you talking about it if she's sailing.

your wedding isnt as important as her future. Soz.

Phahahaha!!

Of course you're disappointed. But you are also being massively U.

Is moving the wedding an option if it's so important that she's there?

Are you a Daily Mail journalist or a bored teenager?

Haha yeah sorry i wouldn't really give a crap about your wedding even if i was your friend .. I mean congratulations and all but nah my life is more important.

YABVU.

At this point I would love nothing more than just me & DP at our wedding but we have to have immediate family there at least. His mum would be so disappointed if we did it alone.

OP not coming back then?

Is this for real, I'd love to join the Navy if I had my time over. Congratulations to your ex friend on this great career opportunity

OP what do you expect her to do? (Though I doubt the OP is coming back to answer...)

This is so funny!

It's a year's notice. Disappointed is OK, angry with her for doing it is not. And by the time the wedding rolls round you will have other things to worry about.
