So I am steaming mad... First you have to know the backstory...
I have a friend that I was so close with in college we were voted Best Friends, Just Friends in our college yearbook. He had a Long Distance girlfriend all through college and though their was a brief attraction in the beginning we were truly just friends. His best male friend in college was FH. They roomed together and were in the same fraternity. Well when FH and I started dating he got all weird. Then when we broke up suddenly we were best friends again. Three years later FH and I saw each other and something was starting again. Well every year our whole group of friends gather at my house and this friend was concerned we were getting close again and instead of being happy for us he told our friends to keep us away from each other.
Fast forward 1 year. He gets married on Labor Day Weekend to the girl he was dating all through college. FH is asked to be in the wedding. He tells us we have to be there at noon on Friday to get the tuxes. So FH and I have to take off on Friday, we drive up to CT by noon. The wedding happens. The next day our friend INSISTS (in a groomzilla moment) that we all join him at his beach house on the LI Sound. Now Labor Day is a big holiday for FH's family and we are usually at the NJ Shore with the entire extended family. But we stay at our friends beach house until about 8pm, then make the drive to the NJ Shore.
Fast forward another 2 years.
This friend is in our wedding. I asked everyone to be on LI by 6:30pm for the rehearsal. They can pick up their tuxes from their own Mens Warehouse stores on Thursday. We also invited everyone to brunch on Sunday at my parents house on the water.
This friend is now telling us that he has to work on Friday and may not be able to make it to the church by 6:30pm. He is also saying he has to leave early on Sunday so someone has to take his tux back for him and he isn't coming to our brunch for our OOT friends.
I am so mad! I had a bridezilla moment last night and insisted FH say something to him. Its ok he inconvenienced us, but god forbid he goes out of his way for us at all.
Oh and he almost skipped FH's bachelor party (he did finally go) and he bitched about having it in Atlantic City. Meanwhile his was a $4000 weekend in Washington DC and he had a stag party on top of that. (A gambling night with a cover charge to raise money for the groom.) And FH was at both.
