Is it weird that?

[MamaDeeGee]

Basically my soon to be husband doesn't want to invite his friends to the wedding.
I just find it a little strange that he doesnt even though he talks to a few of them on a regular basis ( via xbox/text but mostly through the gaming platform)

Abit of background is he used to go out with them every weekend before we got together then when we got together he took on my daughter of 4 at the time and realised we couldn't afford to go out or get a-sitter as often as our friends so he never went out even though i told him to go with them- a couple of them then moved to another city for work but weve seen them a couple of occasions over the years eg bbqs/ us and a couple of them went to a festival together.)

The ones who moved away have all moved back but one.

4 years on, We now have two children together + my eldest who he's taken on.
And we get married this august

We are having a simple ceremony of just us and our mums and kids at the register office then a party after BUT He doesn't want to invite his friends to the party or anything.

Does anyone else think its weird?

I think it's weird you sound grateful he took on your dd.
Shouldn't it be he is the lucky one you have allowed him to share your dd?
But gamers don't have rl friends from gaming according to my ds.

No they his real friends since childhood and school who we saw in regular til they moved away and im grateful as her dad was and still is an absolute tool who didnt know how to keep his hands to himself and also never helped with her.

I meant it as he chose us over his friends

Maybe the friends don't talk about you favourably if they think it's down to you he stays home. . ..

Fair point but its been 4 years and weve met up numerous times and always had a good time as a group :/ i just find it strange

Tell him they're your friends too now and you're inviting them!

I have done. I talked to him about it last night its because he isnt really bothered about the party too much ( tbh neither am i!) we mostly having as family are annoyed we only havin 2&2 so we havin party for family
