... someone who was one of your best friends since school dumped you because (allegedly) they were not invited to your wedding (when you explained you only had parents/siblings) and then ignored you when you tried to contact them several times, 'asked' you to be a friend on facebook via another friend?

Am all in a dither. Please tell me what to do!

I'd ignore them back. Life's too short for playing games or perhapse they are now a reformed character?

Id be their friend on Facebook. You haven;t done owt wrong, so why stoop to that level. The problem is with them, not you, so if you decline the invite, it looks like you now have a problem.

You never know, it might be their way of re-establishing relations.

fuck her

not muchof a friend

Just ignore that message, bloody facebook has a lot to answer for.

Not worth wasting any emotional energy over. You don't need such nonsense - such behaviour should have been left behind in the playground years ago.

Ignore - Facebook is shite anyway

If she really wanted your friendship she'd contact you in real life

I've thought for a while now that my take on life is totaaly tits about face with the rest of Mumsnet and as the lone voice on this thread telling the OP to accept the invite, I guess it confirms my theory.

Life is too short and opportunities are missed in the rush. This might be an opportunity for both you and the other person to clear the air and establish what the problem is/was.

You can always ditch the contact if it doesn't work out. Accept and see what it's about first.

I'm with Doodle2U! Not a lone voice at all...

Take the chance - you have absolutely nothing to lose and it may just bethe start of a bridge building exercise...

Life is too short to consider the whys and wherefores all the time.

I'm with the optimists.
Maybe there were reasons (that were nothing to do with you) that might explain she took the wedding issue to heart.
What have you got to lose?

beaniesteve · 01/07/2008 15:12

What Doodle said.

Perhaps she's forgiven you, perhaps she realises she was being stupid.

Maybe message them first before accepting to say how pleased you are that she's got back in touch - if you want to that is.

Thanks for the good advice. I have decided to ignore after seeing her picture on facebook!!
